Having to work down our bottles in the London wine fridge, so drinking some very young vintages. Last vintage of a six bottle vertical.

Almost 2hr decant. Dark red color. Classic Pontet Canet nose with a little ammonia. Wine is definitely young and green. Fruit forward with cherries as expected but lacks the typical depth. Medium finish. Rounding up to 94. — 5 years ago

@Mike R Never comes empty-handed. This is one of six different bottles he brought with him for the night. What away to start an evening. Can’t thank you enough driving down to Greensboro, NC. for the night. Enjoyed this beauty- at Sam Snead’s cabin where he & his Beautiful bride stayed at. — 7 years ago

With six hours of air in the decanter the wine is superb! Dark notes bearing the signature of Riberera Del Douro but also beautifully balanced with nice secondary and tertiary flavors coming through. It did feel quite dehydrating though. Bottle consumed over three hours after the six hours in the decanter and held up nicely all through the Spanish themed tapas dinner — 9 years ago

The estate Chardonnay is a blend of six different vineyards with approximately 20% fermented in new oak barrels. Texturally, this cuvée offers a sense of flow; it is relaxed in its own skin but provides welcome tension on the precise finish thanks to a line of firm acidity that will leave you smacking your lips. The 20% new oak is well integrated, contributing delicate nougat flavors, and allowing the subtle nectarine and honeydew melon flavors to shine on the medium-length finish.

Really enjoyed this as an evening sipper by itself. Subtle notes of the bourbon barrel, fairly well balanced. Would get again, especially for price. — 9 years ago

Did a blind taste off with this and a very high end Napa Cab. Two of six chose this one. Fair enough. It is explosive, complex and delicious. Dark fruit, leather. All very distinctly Bordeaux. Yum. — 6 years ago

The East Bench Zinfandel is always a step up from the Three Valleys but without the age-ability or complexity of the Lytton Springs or Geyserville. This one is just at the front end of its drinking window and will likely show more in six months or so. — 7 years ago
