1hr+ decant. Dark purple color. Medicinal nose with some dirt, baking spices, and eucalyptus. Same on the palate with nice texture and solid tannins. Medium depth and finish. Vibrant wine. — 9 days ago

This 2016 has a more powerful core and slightly darker fruits than the 2015 that o can remember. The structure is more pronounced, yet it remains impeccably balanced with seamless oak integration. Elegant!

Always a treat to taste a wine from Garguilo. — a month ago

Started off very juicy and oaky but resolved itself and showed more depth as it had airtime. Solid but not amazing — 7 days ago

Wow! Had to buy a few more bottles 😍
Deep purple color. Aromas of blackberry, red currant, herbs and baking spices. Perfectly balanced, red and black fruit with an oak finish.

2001 vintage. Excellent fill. Used a Durand. Cork perfect. Decanted with expected sed and tasted after 2 hours. Medium body but dark as a closed closet. Dirty graphite nose that rang true in the flavors with some restrained plum, cherry and Valrhona chocolate as the backing, rhythm section. Miles to go before it sleeps. Pretty close to the top of the bell curve now. Wow. 10.17.25. — a month ago
