Very smooth flavoursome wine. I really liked this . — 6 years ago
Definitely better than previous vintages, probably the best i‘ve tasted so far! Bold, luscious, buttery-creamy. Bright golden color, complex nose of 🍌bananas, 🍍pineapples, 🍈honeymelon, toffee alongside with lactic-yeasty notes of yoghurt and buttermilk. Broad on the palate, full bodied, juicy fruit, very well integrated alcohol and super long afterhall: at first the fruit, then the oak shines through and even after minutes you have the nice malolactic in your mouth. — 6 years ago

All the chocolate and coffee notes you love from a quality stout without any of the heaviness. Perfect spring beer! — 9 years ago
Big, smooth, musky Shiraz. An almost nutty liqueur note on finish. Very distinctive. — 10 years ago
I do like the label - great colour reproduction (sort of a high vis dark cyan) with a matt finish. Wine is great too - hits those big barossan notes of deep rich blackberry, black cherry, chocolate with ripe tannin, but not over-cooked, lengthy finish in a fresh fruited mid-weighted package. 24% whole bunch. — 5 years ago
Screwcap. Still absolutely rocks! Plums and blackberries awash in milk chocolate, licorice, and leather with fruit and acid in harmony. A bit truncated but that just makes me go back for the next sip sooner. — 6 years ago

While sharing chateaubriand with Mrs A at the Post Hotel in Lake Louise AB we asked the hotel owner to pick the pairing wine. He selected a 2014 Aalto Ribera del Tempranillo to our pleasant surprise. The following are my tasting and consuming notes. The intoxicating rainbow aromas of licorice, black fruits, coffee and leather reflect the alternating layers of lime stone, marl, chalk under the silt and clay topsoil of this stellar appellation. The weather extremes of hot days, cool nights only adds to its exceptional phenolic presentation. Aged for 18 months in oak it displays bright acidity, fine grained tannins finishing with an integration of spices, herbs, woody tones and traces of vanilla. Medium-bodied, balanced, complex layering and long legs this wine proved to be the perfect pairing. Kudos to George Schwarz for this selection. Cheers 🍷 — 7 years ago
