Pretty sexy wine right here. Very silky tannin, sort of like a Petits Monts in that respect, but with more body and flesh. Still showing a light touch of cedary oak complemented by a nice dusting of cinnamon spice. — 10 years ago

With respect to Washington producers, Quilceda Creek is in a league of it's own. I found the Galitzine to have a slightly different profile than their flagship Columbia Valley Cabernet, which often has a unique fingerprint of soy and Asian spices. Even so, this Red Mountain Cab is exquisite and pristine. Notes of violets, graphite, wild plums, boysenberry, incense, and smoke. Well-structured, with firm, precise tannins. The structure, in fact, overwhelms the fruit at this stage, more cellaring is needed. — 10 years ago

Bright lemon and apple in the nose, with a touch of minerality. Palate mimics the nose a bit, but on the softer side. Tastes of apple pie and lemon filling. Light in the mouth yet medium bodied. Good acid, hint of oak. Crisp-ish and quaffable. Like it quite a bit. A wine worthy of respect, not just respectable. — 11 years ago

1985. Tasting this was like sitting next to a WWII vet on a train...some respect for an old school gentleman...they don't make wines like this any more: herbal, pencil shavings, cigar, tea, lots of acid, grainy tannins, light body, refreshing...let's bring cab like this back! — 10 years ago

Button down the hatches folks, we're going for a ride - destination Montilla-hey-o! Distilled peanuts, racy pineapple pith, pear and pencil shavings. The acidity cuts through, well, everything, sashaying forth with pronouncements long on macadamia and happiness. Also: Salt lick that you like. Marcona almonds. Caselvetrano olives. Respect. — 10 years ago

A serious wine. Alive, fresh, and on its own time. Not a fast wine. Might never understand this wine, and love it because of that. I respect this one, and found it to be very pleasing. — 10 years ago

This was the wine of the night. Lovely in every respect, with a nice nose and finish. Classic Chave Hermitage. A wonderful wine that still needs years to develop. — 11 years ago

This thing is like a merengue cookie after you get through the citrus zest and gum arabic candy crust. There is a tangerine characteristic, that turns into tangerine pith, and has a powdered sugar millisecond before becoming bony and rich. This thick little lady is bumping in every respect! — 10 years ago

There's a majesty and respect in a 19 year old #champagne While I would say it was time to drink this teenager, I loved the confit lemon and honey notes and a hint of acidity to finish off. Nice. — 10 years ago

Wine tasting lunch @ a friends house in Paphos
This 1985 was scrumptious what a wine, respect, everyone was impressed, by this astonishing vino. Amazing with elegance, finesse, personality, amazing balance & a very sexy acidity. First time I've ever tasted this wine. While tasting it I could see Principessa Coralia in front of me. Total her wine.

One of the skills I'm coming to respect as a hallmark of really great producers is the ability to convey place and vintage well in their entry level bottlings. Von Winning has that hallmark. — 11 years ago
