Pure magic! ‘67 is a legendary vintage, lucky to experience a flawless bottle. This was fully resolved and hauntingly aromatic. It’s was energetic and lasted in the glass. Probably another decade of life left for these Normale bottlings — 7 years ago

This is not the Lot. It’s the Truquilemu Carginan. I’ve asked Delectable to add it.

On the nose; deeper & dark than the Bagual. Dark cassis, blueberries, black raspberries, plum, violets, dark moist soils, dry top soil, red flowers with violets.

The fruits are creamy. The body full and ripe tannins are round & sticky. blueberries, black raspberries, plum, violets, dark moist soils, dry top soil, red flowers with violets. Fabulous acidy and rich polished finish.

A blend of 67 CS 28% Syrah 5 PV this is made by Gilles nicault who is the winemaker who works will all the celebrity winemakers the fruit is from candy mountain and red mountain this wine has a good punt of dark cherry fruit blackberry fruit with dark chocolate and a good amount of earth loamy notes nice complexity on the nose. A thick and chewy wine on the tongue with ripe round tannins very balanced a bigger wine than the feather but just as nuanced. Finish 45+. Excellent+ — 11 years ago

67% Arbanne / Petit Meslier / Fromenteau & 33% Chardonnay, Disgorged November 2017.

A mineral and nutty freak show! Wow this palate... Green apple, peach skin, lemon, leesy/yeasty aspects, insane limestone/saline notes on the very long finish, perfect.

24hr Update: Toasty brioche goodness with acidic mineral butter, best to open this one and drink the following day. Crazy? Yes probably, but amazingly enough the bubbles are still almost as good as day one! — 7 years ago

Anderson’s Conn Valley Vineyards 2013 Right Bank cab franc 67% and merlot 33%. FANTABULOUS!!!! At 60 dollars it is as high end as it gets for my taste at a budget cost. It is better than any cab franc blend Ive ever had at any price. it has a unique oak and spice to it. No chocolate nor vanilla. Loads of Black licorice and cigar. A wonderful change. Still lots of dark berries on the beginning and very dry on the finish. This will never disappoint. Must decant however for at least 30 min in large decanter. — 8 years ago

67% Cab 30% Merlot and rest PV. Bad economic year and was hard to sell despite great vintage. Creamy right away when you open it with tint of spiciness. Christophe took over the winery in 2005 so this is one of their earlier vintages and only made 70k bottles — 10 years ago
