Nectar of angels indeed! 2011 shows much better than previous years. Good to see this baby Amarone, back in full swing. Bright to black, light to dark to bright flavor profile. It's like Jedi molecules are hashing it out on my palette. . Yum. — 10 years ago

Stunning for its finesse contrasted by remarkable elegance, the 2010 Cerbaiona provides a bouquet of lifted red fruits, exotic spice, provincial herbs, and pretty red floral tones. The textures were silky and refined, hovering on the palate, with notes of fresh savory herbs, green olive, and ripe black cherry, which seemed to swing back and forth from sweet to savory. A coating of fine tannin saturated the senses with hints of cherry and herbs on the long finish. — 10 years ago

Still very young, but opening nicely to tart cherry, blood/iron minerality and black raspberry on the nose. With roasted chicken it's gonna swing! — 11 years ago

Pale greeny gold. Lemony apple with a swing of incense, dry, good acidity, delightfully well balanced twixt fruit and acidity. Excellent with lemon baked mackerel. — 12 years ago
Wonderful blend of fully bodied and fruit flavors. Tough to budget into a daily routine but worth it if you can swing it. — 10 years ago
The 2009 Kings Row is an interesting wine with rich tobacco, cherry and licorice aromas. This has a lusciously smooth taste of the red fruit, pencil shavings with a slight hint of spices that lingers on your palate makes this a nice guilty pleasure. It is costly and a nice treat but there are others out there that have a better value to quality ratio for those that don't want to drop big bucks. But if you can swing it please treat yourself. #kingsrow #calistoga #checkerboard — 10 years ago

2011 Barboursville Vineyards Vermentino. The 2011 vintage was a rough one in Virginia, but amidst & from it, Luca Pascina added just the right amount of neutral oak to bookend what may very well become a new staple for Virginia collectors and international connoisseurs as well. You watch. When the more zesty, ripe, stainless-produced 2012's come along make sure to give it a swing. Specially with linguine in clam sauce. Oy. — 13 years ago
