Dense and concentrated for budget Bordeaux. Seven years old but a lot of life left in it. Heavier focus on Cab Franc yields bigger funk at first. An hour in the funk dials down to a more spicy, black pepper quality. Mid palate fruit before rusty, dusty, Brett-y tannins dominate the finish. Tremendous with duck confit appetizer and hangar steak entree. — 9 years ago

Starting to show its age/rusty edge, but a wonderful value for such high quality Napa wine. I wish I had more on the cellar. — 10 years ago

Rusty color. Slight oxidation. Solid fruit and acid. Drinks light like a white but has notes of light reds like gamay or Pinot. Classic bressan. Weird and delicious. — 12 years ago

Stunning orange wine with loads of depth and character. Rustic and rusty as the name Ruscum potentially says? Sister to Lazio Bianco. — 10 years ago

This looked dead - muddy and rusty...but totally different on the palate. Bright red currants, so amazing, and softened nicely the longer it was open... — 10 years ago

No question this vintage has gotten a little funky, but it fills me with joy to drink a wine like this from California soil. Cranberries, rusty iron, cinnamon, redwood bark, tangy and easy...this wine is screaming out that we're finally a wine region with cool shit to discover. — 13 years ago

Damn. Rusty colored with an enormous fruit nose. Elegant. Showing SO BEAUTIFULLY OMG. At the MFW Italian portfolio tasting. — 9 years ago

9.1

Second wine of progressive climate-concious second growth of the left bank; Dark ruby with clear 10-year aging rusty tones; the most dominant on the nose is a exciting minerality with dark red fruits, spices, and oak in the background; taste is silky sweet and very well balanced and with a long elegant finish. Very nice wine that is probably not too many years away from its peak. — 9 years ago

Killer value, a Lalande de pomerol w some depth- initial nose of stewed cherry and lead pencil evolved into dried lavender, Chai tea, and bitter cacao nibs with a rusty iron background to it. Silky smooth texture. — 11 years ago

9.1

Light rusty garnet colored, very clear. The scent was minerals and almost a little grassy. Compelling to drink. Medium finish, soft tannins, good acidity, red cherries, concrete, lots of tasty minerals. Paired really well with spicy red pasta sauce. — 11 years ago
