Friend celebrating birthday nicknamed "Magic" for his contracting/construction skills, so thought this appropriate. Drinking so well at 12.1% ABV. Blue fruit, pepper. — 10 years ago

Fascinating-comes out of bottle first like tarred duckling, but unfolds into a sleeker, black core fruit beast, w both acidic scaffold of barbera but w a more burnished version if its fruitiness. Aged min 6-8 years, 1/2 of which is in bottle. Still a bit of an oddity & not sure if i love it, but respect its construction. 10% nebbiolo. Rosenthal import

A delicate even if vinous riesling profile. Vertical, incisive a bit pungent and savage. Good construction and persistence. Quite simple but so good. — 10 years ago

9.1

Very full bodied and complex with a French interpretation of the classic Malbec dominance. The French construction adds depth, complexity, finish and smooths or tempers the tendency of Malbec to be overly intense, but lacking in depth and complexity. A better "Malbec", in my view. — 11 years ago

Distinctively French, rich tannins, solid construction, too small of a bottle.

Quality in every way. Rich taste, nice texture, good for both sipping and pairing with pretty strong foods. Even the bottle construction seemed nice and hefty and conveyed quality. We give this our top rating, which means we will stock it in our wine cellar as a regular. — 13 years ago
