Intense nose of saltana, raisins, molasses, sardine oil and soy. Insanely luscious with well intergrated spirit. Lacks some complexity and feels like it could've done with further ageing — 8 years ago

#ringland #syrah #jumilla #gilfamily intense Syrah from Spain, more than likely it's the best Syrah from Spain. Deep, submarine deep. A touch of residual to make it sexy. — 10 years ago

A tremendous bottle, ageing effortlessly. Black cherry, clove, pencils. Sleek, seamless texture. Very happy to try it, thanks to the Sardine Factory for continuing to offer amazing wines like this at great prices. #sardinefactory — 10 years ago

Celebrating my buddy Luke's birthday at Town Hearth in Dallas. Talk about over the top style/decorations! More chandeliers than I could count and yes, that's a yellow submarine in the picture. Not pictured is the old Aston Martin by the kitchen and two Ducati bikes above the bar (which is on the menu as a "Primo Side" and can be ordered for a cool $75K 💸😱).

My buddy is slowly getting in to wine and has been loving Bordeaux's. They had a few on the list, but most were 2012/2013. Way too young. This being an '05 made our pick an easy decision. Don't know much about this winery, but it was a solid drinker. Needed about 30mins of air as it was pretty tight at first. Surprisingly very full of blue and dark fruits. Charcoal, blackberries, plums. Blueberries were faint, but welcomed. Quite smooth from start to finish on the palate. Didn't seem super complex, but I'd probably buy again if it was priced in the $50-70 range. — 8 years ago

Climb into the brown submarine! This is subterranean and deliciously dank. Big hot, black soil notes intertwine with raw cocoa nib and smoky blackberry. Cedar and briar, leather and biomass. This is a stubble and schist wall of tannins up front, with a king-fu grip! — 10 years ago
