Shutter, full body and smoke. — 9 years ago
Houston’s very own Del Frisco’s Grille is sadly shutting down. So, as it was with their fine steakhouse concept ‘Sullivan’s’ when it closed down, they’re doing a 50% off promotion for ALL alcohol. Needless to say...we have a few dinners lined up with our Supper Club and other friends before they shutter their doors for good on 9/16.
This was very delicious. Even as a pop & pour it presented nicely. Just a reiteration that mountain fruit is my favorite. — 8 years ago

This wine had a great fanfare preceding it. Let's do the shakedown...
A very flamboyant nose, dominated by vanilla - over done in my opinion.
The palette is plush and velvety. Tannins are polished and well defined. The fruit is overwhelmed by oak and vanilla. Such a shame, since the structure and raw components are strong and evident. It's a good wine, but it's overdone. Winemaker needs to throttle back for the next vintage. — 10 years ago

This is about as good as New World entry-level Chardonnay gets. — 8 years ago

I really shutter to think how Prosecco still exists when there are things like this being created. Smh. Smh. Smh. — 10 years ago
Focused, dense, hard outer shell, tightly wound and locked ... But Loaded with quality marks that will take patience to enjoy... Graphite, dark fruits, young cassis, and tannins that shutter the meek - 98 points - save for a decade before considering to open.

Great burg on the first real “shutter in” weekend. This came to play. Soft and elegant. No edges here. Great window. — 6 years ago
