Nice deep color with a great body. Excellent bouquet! Dark cherries and plum and a very enjoyable mouth feel. This is a keeper. — 3 years ago
Way more interesting than its price (but not its label!) infers. Loam and forest floor in the nose, raging currant, ash, and minerals in the mouth. I guess the syrah gives it the body, but it still surprised me. Love it! — 5 years ago
Been a while but this was really very good - 3rd bottle of this we’ve had this weekend on lockdown. £10 a bottle at M&S. Let it breathe a bit and the rewards are fantastic. You feel it though - 14%. One to savour. — 5 years ago

Just the right amount of earthiness in the bouquet. Great fruit and balance. Good table wine. — 3 years ago

W&S Top 100. Now, this one is debatable. Bring it in here. I dig that a current release is almost 20 years old. But man I want to know what this tasted like 5 years ago, 10 years ago! The great aspect of owning a cellar and releasing at the will of ownership, you could “traunch-it”. Right? The leather and soft integration here seemed a bit too far. Certainly not gone. But 5-10 years prior, that is the decade I would have loved to try this. — 6 years ago

This cab hit the spots you’d want and its clean. About to crush some gnocchi from Cibo so only going to add to the vibes. Riding on a celestial wave of pasta and red wine - anotha one (DJ Khaled) — 3 years ago

Lot No. 16 - don’t know exactly what the “lot #s” mean, and the website is under construction. Vintage? But it isn’t a vintage or LBV. Predominant year in the blend? Bottled in 2018. I found this really unusual, in a good way, for a ruby port. It has a dusky, dry tannic character. But silky smooth. Reminds me of tea and raisins, and maybe dried blueberries. Really like this. — 5 years ago
