Very young, but went nicely with rigatoni and meatballs. Nose of tar and caramel. Hits the palate a little harshly but mellows out nicely with air. Overall a solid experience. — 9 years ago

I really like this. Its a bruiser, but doesn't feel over ripe. There are tar, tobacco, black cherry and citrus peel flavors . then the mouthfeel is rustic with medium but slightly grainy tannins. This in a good way. Great with an earthy rigatoni with Brussels sprouts.
Kind of an old school Carignan Petit Sirah blend but with more fruits. — 9 years ago

Extremely smooth. Went down so easily. Paired lovely with a sausage rigatoni. Balanced cherry and mixed berry tannins, slight vanilla on the finish. Amazing!! Suggest to let it decant to bring out the flavours — 8 years ago

Beaujolais all day! Nose shows candied plums, overripe banana skin, dense wet soil. Loving the juiciness and roundness of candied red fruit, boysenberry, and banana all backed by relatively modest acidity and structure in the absence of tannin. Loving the elusiveness of pinning down exactly what I'm tasting here and could see this being a versatile food wine. This time we paired with Lamb and veal meatballs with homemade rigatoni and a cramp burgogne style sauce with a. Heavy dose of thyme. — 9 years ago

The crisp acidity makes this South African chenin blanc a wonderful accompaniment to spicy rigatoni. Fresh and mineral on the nose. Flavors of green apple, pear, and a slight honeysuckle finish. Well balanced. — 9 years ago

Extremely smooth. Beautifully balanced; dark ruby red. On the nose there is jelly, and on the palate there is a light strawberries, apples, and a earthy finish. Was too good. Paired nicely with a tomato and mushroom rigatoni. — 8 years ago

Long ass flight to San Francisco. I am sure anything would have tasted good. I have always wanted to try this Cabernet. Sort of an easy drinking Cabernet that went well with rigatoni bolognese. — 9 years ago
