The Charmer

Cantine Antonio Caggiano

Macchia dei Goti Taurasi Aglianico 2002

Signed by my favorite Taurasi maker, Antonio. The older his Taurasi gets, the more amazing they become and this 2002 was mind blowing. I savored every sip along with his charming company. Look out ladies, he is well aged like his amazing wines but he is a true charmer. Ciao Antonio mi amici. — 10 years ago

Joyas de Familia Mendoza Gran Syrah Blend 2011

Uco Valley charmer from the Brothers, age or drink today. The real deal of cab / Malbec / merlot / cab franc blends that put Bordeaux on the map. — 11 years ago

Feelin hot-hot-hot!

Boyfriend preferred the argentine selection (still some work to do on that front), so more of this charmer for me!

Pristine fruit and spiced red candy. So gracefully balanced that calling "structure" seems a disservice to its delightful presentation.

Domaine Jean-Marc Morey

Grand Clos Rousseau Santenay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2008

Gushing with red fruit and a tea backdrop, what a charmer. Actually brings to mind my beloved 08 Maume Gevrey Chambertin, but in a slightly leaner way. — 11 years ago

Silver Oak

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1992

Basically the Sean Connery of wine. Smooth, handsome, suave, a true charmer. With a finish to die for. — 11 years ago

Fernando Remírez de Ganuza

Viña Coqueta Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2006

Picked up at the winery a couple years ago from the man himself. Like the name says, a charmer -- but not as profound as his signature reserva. — 10 years ago

Cavallotto

Barolo Nebbiolo 2004

Such a charmer. Open mix of bright and dark fruit. Fresh and elegant. — 10 years ago

Domaine de la Mordorée

Cuvée La Reine des Bois Lirac Red Rhone Blend 2005

A knockout! Slightly overwhelming for the grilled lamb I served it with, but what a charmer. Still ver youthful. Wish I had another case... — 11 years ago

Eclipse Cephalonia Mavrodaphne 2009

Markus Stolz
9.8

Gentilini Eclipse 2009, dry Mavrodaphne, 13% alcohol, island of Cephalonia: Single vineyard, high altitude, 2000 bottles produced. Mountain herbs, truffles, ripe tannins with high acidity. A charmer, very elegant. Hits my personal preferences big time. So happy that wines like this do exist! — 12 years ago
