A lighter nose with a palate of cranberry, strawberry and a light zesting of orange. A darker, deeper rosé with a long fruity finish. — 9 years ago

Incredibly full bodied, rich in black cherry, jewel tone, mineral, dark, tremendously fruity, almost sweet but Betty much raisin flavour, closer to Barbaresco or Barolo. If you're in a mood for rich, deep, Italian roots, you should go for this. — 10 years ago

Showing its Bordeaux roots, this Malbec dominated blend has a deep purple color and, after decanting, offers brambly black fruit and graphite aromas. Nicely balanced and somewhat chewy with black currant and cedar notes. Lingering, brooding and evolving over time. A lovely pairing with another Argentinian specialty: beef. — 11 years ago

Deep black core, ruby mid section, starting to show some autumnal browning in the edges.
First sniff is a little murky, soupy. But this blows away after aeration and then a very quiet, sophisticated, graceful bouquet is revealed, hinting at cigars, black olive, sundried tomato, spicebox, fatty Ibericoham, black cherries and plumpudding. Terrific concentration on the palate! Silky soft and smooooth, cinnamon, milk chocolate, leather, discrete notes of oak and garden herbs all coalesce into the very long, echoing finish. Did I already mention this has sheer perfect acidity? An androgynous wine, masculine and feminine at the same time. A home run in this so-so vintage. — 9 years ago

Deep in color and fragrant on the nose, this dark ruby red from Sicily offers a powerful set of aromas: cassis, black olives, cigar box, leather, anise and smoke all come around fairly quickly. This is one of those wines I run across from time to time that smells so good I almost forget to drink it. Almost. The palate is dark and savory. Blackberry and black plum are the most notable fruit flavors, but the Morgante is all about the trimmings. There is a muddy forest floor component and, if you are new to wine, rest assured that it’s a good thing. Minerality comes in abundance and there is a hint of sage there, too, with notes of tea, coffee and root beer finding their way through. — 10 years ago
