This bottle was the third part of a really fun ensemble of Barolos, generously shared and curated by our friend Tim.

Once again, served blind after a lengthy slow-ox; all the while knowing we were drinking Barolo but that’s it. This bottle had rather obvious signs of age with loads of sediment (though most was decanted off) and a rather pronounced orange rim. On the nose, there was tar for dayzzzz! Secondary characteristics were dominant with dried cherries, balsamico, earth, and truffles. The finish was savory and delicious.

I was sure this was old but I wasn’t sure how old. Revealed as a 1985 Fratelli Monchiero, a producer I was unfamiliar with. Our host mentioned that it came across DOA when the cork was pulled but his experience with old Barolo proved this had a chance to come around; I’m so grateful he showed the patience necessary. A lovely experience. — 5 years ago

At first the nose is cedary and earthy and pencil lead. Then it quickly opens up to display an array of blueberry, black currant and sweet plum. Amazingly alive for a wine of this age and can still go another 10 years. Alluring, long finish of leather, sweet spice and smoky oak. Thank you Tim Matz for the taste! — 7 years ago

Pale to mid crimson. Palate showing sweet cherry and plum fruit with spicy oak. Delicious now with short term cellaring potential. Proving once again how suitable Adelaide Hills is for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. (Also does great cool climate Syrah. ) — 9 years ago

Цвет золотой. В аромате сладкий ананас, курага, прополис, пластик, дым. Полное тело, средний уровень кислотности. Во вкусе джем с ананасовыми дольками, мёд в сотах, шалфей, пыль. Напористо, глубоко, немного тяжеловесно, но очень интересно. Долгое тёпло-пряное послевкусие. На пике. 17/20 — 9 years ago

Great value—a bit heavy on the oak but nice with short ribs braised with orange zest, port, and star anise. Do again with spicy ragus or meats. — 6 years ago

Unique whisky made from Atole, roasted blue corn meal. Smooth finish, slight nuttiness, best to be paired with delicious Texas BBQ, or California cuisine. (Or just fine on its own). Thanks @Amanda Thomas and @Tim Schroeder always a nice treat from TX — 7 years ago

Over 30 years ago, Tim Murphy, Dale Goode and Dave Ready founded their three-family partnership in 1985 & launched the brand with two wines: estate grown Fumé Blanc and Chardonnay. Crisp aromas of citrus fruits, Blend of 96% Sauvignon Blanc & 4% Semillon. Palate crisp fresh furry fruit flavors with some peach & melon. Medium finish, lively acidity ending with citrus tones. Nice value. — 6 years ago
