The nose is a little muted and nondescript. Maybe spice box and cherries.
The palette is ethereal. Polished, finishing long and sweet. Drinking perfectly now, but has another 7 - 10 years of runway :0) — 11 years ago
OMG... and not because of the wannabe "Real Housewives of New Jersey" this evening in Runway 84 in Ft. Lauderdale... Ralph and Las Olas crew hosting, with famed Bahamian Lobster thief Ryan G... Such immediate fruit, black cherry, black currant, candy... 16.5 on the alcohol, you would never know it... Loving this Italian and not the "Big Ang" look-a-like to my right.... — 12 years ago
Really nice heady cocktail of kirch and cherries on the nose. On the palette, the tannins are in the foreground, but the layered texture is evident. Classic Napa cab with plenty of runway ahead of it. Excellent! — 11 years ago
Thursday night and back at Runway 84 in Ft. Lauderdale... This wine is a good find. The only thing better than this wine and besides Shelly's dramatic weight loss is his shirt/tie pairings... I mean what the F---? Me and Ralph are convinced that you have not picked up an issue of GQ in the last 10 years... — 12 years ago

Ripe and racy. Wet stones, lemon rind, apricot, hibiscus tea on the nose. Creamy, flinty, smokey lemon drops on the palate. Full bodied style packed with acid and minerality. Lots of runway to improve. — 11 years ago
