3 Months Aged in Bourbon Barrels Red Blend 2015

Full mouthfeel, can taste the oak from the barrels it is aged in. Initially too many tannins and overwhelming, but once opens up it is a nice wine. — 8 years ago

Gonzalez Byass

Vinum Optimum Rare Signature 30 Year Old Jerez Pedro Ximénez

Mahogany color with molasses, caramel, espresso, bittersweet chocolate and subtle baking spice aromas. On the palate it's full bodied, viscous, and very persistent with a supple mouth feel that's beautifully balanced with a penetrating acidity that keep it from being cloying and persistent with very good acidity that keeps it from being cloying and provides balance. It shows very sweet flavors of molasses, honey-dipped figs, dates, caramel, and baking spice nuanced citrus note with a kiss of oxidation that adds to its allure and complexity.

Sella & Mosca

Terre Rare Riserva Carignano del Sulcis 2010

Wow. Love this Sardinian. The front is big and salty. My favorite with big flavored food. I have not decided on the end yet. This went down with an awesome grilled pork loin seasoned in prunes and Dijon mustard. Side was a very flavorful split pea and onion mash. — 10 years ago

Thanks. I've had 5-6 bottles of Sella & mosca, some great and balanced, some too ripe.

Oh heck. I wish I had more. I don't know Aussie wine but don't think that would make a big diff in how to interpret this oner. It is an individual and a nice one at that.
It is smooth and merlot Berry then POW there are your Gewurtztraminer spices and whoa. Despite my hatred of the color of yellow I can dig it. Yowza.
