Lovely, engaging natural red wine. Deep red color. Burst if aroma. Tastes better after some airing. Has just a little bubble that strikes the tongue on first sips — 8 years ago
New label: less metal and more beauty. Big big big catalan. Decant to taste wildflowers — 8 years ago
Sampled at a dinner with the charming Karen MacNeil seated directly across from me, legends Bill Harlan and Andrea Robinson at the table behind me. The Opus One 2006 sang—one long, melodic, satiny chord drenched in wild blueberries, steeped blackberries, and black raspberry. It unfurls slowly, releasing a daub of incense, then sandalwood, anise, dark chocolate shavings, and camphor. It is suave and sexy—a white tie and tails sort of wine combining power and freshness, finishing in dried herbs and graphite. #WineWritersSymposium2017 — 9 years ago

Tons of lemon/lime on the nose frost sips has almost. Viscous unctuous mouth feel. Vegetable characteristics on the palate include zucchini honeyed peas — 8 years ago
Saline, pure, and fresh. Pretty meaty, with dark fruit and grippy tannins. Some heat. — 10 years ago
This 34 was bit worrisome as level was mid-low shoulder and cork was tad crumbling. But the wine sang LATOUR out of the bottle like Genie out of the bottle and then he escaped rather quickly as the wine's bloom did not last. Still sweet in the core with wet leather, spiced nuts kind of notes...still a wonder of a wine. Sediment was heavy! — 10 years ago

Really nice Barolo. I have had three or four of these over the last 15 months. Tonight with white truffles, pasta and some mains. Earthy, mushrooms on the nose. Took a while to open, but after about 90 minutes really sang. — 11 years ago

2017 is the best year for this wine. Love it — 7 years ago
With as much Spanish wine as I drink it is shocking I haven’t had this until now. It did not disappoint. I did feel it was touch sweet, but on day two this wine sang. — 8 years ago
Essentially the perfect wine for my palette. Beautiful feminine floral nose, pretty, ethereal cherries and bright red raspberries, along with anise and tobacco. Weightless mouthfeel with a rich consistency; like having your tongue wrapped in liquid velvet. However those earthy Sangiovese tannins show up just in time to add a remarkable masculine balance. This wine sang a song about food. Gosh I wish I had another.... — 8 years ago

Pur Sang. Waxy, honeyed, silky textured. — 10 years ago
Really enjoyed this - probably peaking now. Solid tannic earthy base but lots of blackberries and cherries on the nose. Really well balanced for a Sang. — 11 years ago
Took about an hour in the glass for the oak to integrate, but once it did, the wine sang. — 12 years ago
