Consider this a collective note on the '67 Barolo vintage...having tasted through about fifteen, most were fading or already past it. Burlotto, Prunotto, and Vietti were all wonderful and G. Rinaldi could legitimately go another decade, but in general, drink 'em if ya got 'em! — 8 years ago
More strawberry jam than an animal collective album, and a lovely vanilla bean scent as well. Wonderful taste. — 8 years ago

L'Insieme means to come together, and this blend of Barbera and Nebbiolo is not only bold, elegant, and with a hint of spice, but it is also a winery collective that gives a portion of their proceeds to various charities... — 10 years ago

Really enjoying the complexity and smoothness of this Pinot. Not my favorite flavors - fig, musty, olive oil, and rootiness. Yet, all the changes, stamina, length, and liquidity of this is simply delightful. The tanginess is very slight - like a faint, spicy strawberry, but wow, really fun diversity in every sip. Silky, oaky, musty, figgy, aromatic, with a long subtle finish that continues to shift flavors. Fun! — 8 years ago

Really nice bottle! We picked it up from Grape Collective and ended up toasting our 6th year engagement anniversary. Wonderful sparkling wine for a celebration! It's smooth....no after shock like some champagnes. Our bottle had a loud celebratory POP when the cork came out. Fun! — 9 years ago

OMG!!! I’m going to save myself some time and post these all at once. It was one of those epic nights!!!!!! LOL
8 of us began on a mystical journey of friendship, food & WINE!!
we began with five bottles of Haber which just arrived at my office yesterday! OMG! Now I only have three left! LOL!!!!!!!! I absolutely adore this wine and so did my friends. It was actually their WOTN which is a lot to say given the company it was in. I then opened a bottle of 2012 Memento Mori which was its usual opulent self!! Two of us preferred this wine over Haber but the remainder preferred Haber. I pulled this trick out of my butt from David Lentine!!!! A palate cleanser after heavy Cabernets and we opened a gorgeous Beaux Freres- The Beaux Freres Vineyard. We then got things going again with one of my favorite Chardonnays in Napa! This stuff absolutely rocks and should be bought by all. Nuf said, it’s that freaking good!!! Last but not least I decided to mix it up a little and pulled one of my favorite under the radar GSM blends that I know. Domaine de la grange des Peres. Every single one of my guests Took a sip and immediately snap their head up to say “what the heck is this! “that’s good!" You will look like a hero pouring it at anyone’s party and the cost is negligible at $95 a bottle! Bad ass in a glass as I always say. Every single one of these bottles proved to be as such! Love you guys sand cheers to you all! The individual rating for each wine was slightly different but I would say as a collective it was definitely a 9.6 type of evening.

Where to start? Clearly a complex and almost-salty wine (this is high acid with substantial but smooth tannin), but a year in barriques has smoothed it out to create some strawberry, lavender, anise-seed and floral flavors that integrate into a collective experience. Rich but subtle, I'll argue this is versatile enough for something with some spice (pollo alla diavola or even panang curry) to something fatty and rich (steak or burger night, I'm looking at you). — 10 years ago
