Gordons Chanin tasting 6/13/17. $43. #5. nose that's balanced and great mouth feel and structure and great long finish. Minty hints. Like 2013. — 8 years ago
I've had this bottle in the cellar for a LONG time (probably past peak)...waiting for the right occasion. Here is to ten eventful years of Builders Bargain. Jammy, delicate flavor. 13 years of aging has given this a very earthy quality. Decanted for 90 minutes but should get even more spectacular through the evening. Cheers! — 9 years ago
Bigger and darker fruit than expected. Heavier on the palette than the '13 I'd recently had. Finish of licorice. — 9 years ago
Refreshing, off dry white with just the right touch of fizz. Best $13 value in several months. Nicer on day 1 chilled. — 11 years ago
Seminal Napa-- still youthful with bountiful juicy plum-like fruits, and a touch of perfectly integrated oak. I like these wines so much more under 13% abv. — 11 years ago

First time having Bosconia. Wonderfully supple but still a babe at 13 years. Delicious red fruit, cocoa/milk chocolate, wild herbs and warm baking spices on the nose. Nicely integrated, medium body, excellent clarity and finish. Plenty of tannic structure and rich fruit, like all LdH this will go for ages. — 6 years ago
Délicieux! 13 Alsatian grape varieties blended to perfection. A pretty pleaser for the price. — 8 years ago
Wonderful nose of dark fruit, oak and cinnamon. Fantastic tastes of blueberries, blackberries, cassis, baking spices and oak. A bold wine with solid tannins that are still working to put on silk gloves. This is a blend of grapes from all 15 AVA's in Napa back in 2010. Probably has another decade or more in terms of optimal bottle life. Steve Reynold's at his best. — 8 years ago
