Ripe red fruit, sweet tobacco, eucalyptus, suede, chunky, dry. Like sitting on a terrace overlooking olive and eucalyptus groves, with a companion smoking fine tobacco, wearing a new suede jacket to warm against the freshly scented breeze. — 11 years ago

I love Rioja. This one is particularly smooth. Leather, tobacco, cedar and black cherry. Like smoking a swisher sweet in a library. — 11 years ago

Floral and cherry with a smooth, dry mouth feel. It's full bodied but not as heavy as a Cab. This wine could stand up to beef or barbecue. — 10 years ago

The fruit is fading but I thought this wine had as much carry on the palate as any other of this group from dinner at Seasonal Pantry. Someone said it recalled his grandmother's cigar smoking room, which means not boring to me. I'm now 1 for 2 on birth year wines. — 10 years ago
