Sipping Fine Wine

9.5

Blend of 42% cabernet sauvignon, 30% malbec and 28% cabernet franc, deep Ruby color, purple edges, with aromas of dark berry fruits, cacao, sweet spice and herb notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry, dark cherry and black plum with cacao, vanilla, black pepper and earthy notes. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit, sweet spice and earthy mineral character. Nice! — 3 days ago

Really bold off the hop, then leans into black cherry and aged cheese. Slightly purple tongue. Consistent throughout the bottle - really great. — a month ago

Mother Mary of God! Near Pomerol like. Charles Hendricks masterpiece. Menthol & a touch of mint.

Stunning vintage & wine.

This 07 is in perfect shape…at its peak. Still has 7 plus years of life.

This bottling from the co-op can be found in almost every major local supermarkets here and I’ve always been curious to find out how it tastes.
It’s clean, refreshing, energetic, and with decent texture and complexity. Delicious and a crowd-pleaser. Much better choice than an average CAVA or Prosecco for a bit more price when it’s on sale for less than $30. — 2 months ago

This remains one of the greatest white dry wines of France although probably not for everybody. Every year is a surprise and that inconsistency can be off-putting. Golden color, medium weight, quite high in alcohol (14.5) and cloudy. Long burn, apricot, dried raisins, apple and pineapple. — 7 days ago
