Côte du Py Morgon Gamay 2012

Roel van der Burg
9.7

Gamay the Burgundian way. This was once love at first sight and I keep coming back to it. There is something about the texture that is unexplainable. Light-hearted but damn serious. And then I wasn't even talking about the phenomenal perfume. Finesse all the way. From the granite and schist soils on the Py hillside. — 10 years ago

Napa Valley Meritage Red Blend 2011

When Jeremy Clarkson says "powaaah!" He could be talking about this Meritage. Dark fruits wrapped in powerful tannins. Would pair well with a beast of a ribeye, me thinks -- Wineshout.com — 10 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1997

A friend who hands you a glass of this is a very good friend. There's nothing I could say about this wine that has not already been said. Ideal match for easy laughter and complicated stories. — 10 years ago

Rio Sordo Barbaresco Nebbiolo 2010

Now this is what I'm talking about. Tobacco, leather, plum. Still a bit tannic on the finish, but pretty solid. — 10 years ago

"Awesome" is inadequate as a descriptor when talking about this wine. The greatest Bien Nacido bottle I've ever experienced. #ipob14 — 11 years ago

Someone came in about a month ago asking about Armenian wine. I said I didn't know of any but if there was one imported, it would find me. Well, today it found me. And it is lovely. High toned, elegant, fruit and earth and stories to tell. — 11 years ago

I don't think so but I could be wrong. I have found a couple more articles about this wine. Very interesting. You guys did a great job bringing it in. The color is just incredible.

Beautiful nose and lush palate. Not trying to be a blockbuster, medium-weight and balanced. This is the type of Cab that human beings actually enjoy drinking. There's a bit of a stemmy note on the back palate, but otherwise finishes long and tasty.

Fruit is jammy in flavor but not texture.
