An insane value. Light, easy, balanced, and powered by a Grenache blanc + Maccabeu + Rolle trifecta I'd not encountered. — 8 years ago
The third of the birthday trifecta--probably shouldn't have finished with a wine of this caliber, but nonetheless, it still shone through. White pepper, balsamic, marjoram, dried leather and pipe tobacco. Burnt palette but still impressive. Needs a few more years to develop. — 8 years ago
I definitely preferred Juliet. It is softer and a little bit more elegant. 'Romeo is a great daily drinker. Pop & pour type on f wine. My favorite line from Ed Snider is definitely his guest cottage, reserve and estate. That it is perfect trifecta!. — 8 years ago
Blanc de Blancs, no dose, l'Eclapart. Wine geek trifecta. Nose is a symphony, wet earth, mineral, salty, tree bark? Fascinating aromas. Palate is dry, forceful, yeasty and tangy. Long and intense. Concentrated and intense.
Day 2 Update - Yeasty somewhat broad and mineral nose. Some brioche as well. Nice. Palate is razor sharp with terrific precision and minerality. Really lovey delineation of flavors. Great. Delicate and complex yet forcefully dry. Incredible. — 9 years ago
If you ever find yourself in Tuscany, across from the Antinori winery, is this charming vineyard which also produces olive oil, and cheese. Holy trifecta!
This wine is light, yet very satisfying. Of course it pairs well with fruit and cheese! — 9 years ago
Bangin’ wine. The PN and Gamay combined makes a dense, concentrated and sultry wine. Balanced, pure and precise. Trifecta. — 7 years ago
The Trifecta is complete with this big Cabernet Sauvignon from Howell Mountain (which is officially my new favorite appellation!). The volcanic soils of Howell make the vines struggle for nutrients and water and pack the grapes with density and intensity. Deep purple color and all the fun black fruits and a long lingering finish. This one is blended with 87% Cabernet Sauvignon and 13% Merlot. This was my favorite of the three big Hall Cabs. Given time it will be epic. — 8 years ago
Big fruit forward and dry. Good alone or with beef. Probably crazy good with brick oven pizza. Thank you @nvwineandcigar #wine — 9 years ago
The body is leaner than you'd like. However, it has all the characteristics of Haut Brion. Creamed; blackberries, black raspberries. Black plum, tobacco, leather, burnt ambers, wet black earth, dried coffee grounds, stoney gravel, decayed flowers and a touch of mushroom. It starts well but doesn't have the polished finish one expects from Haut Brion. From the 1993-95 trifecta tasting, the only disappointment. But, it's still Haut Brion! Out of 375ml. — 9 years ago
The second leg in my Spanish trifecta of stellar wines. Big juicy fruit with a green structure that lifts the act of drinking it into deep satisfaction, Juan Gil does effortlessly what most others botch. Also, the value for price ratio is out of this galaxy. — 7 years ago
Great with Evo's Trifecta pizza! — 8 years ago
Medium plus body with medium tannins. Alcohol, acidity, and fruit making a perfect trifecta building off of each other to make a very balanced wine. Red current hints of vanilla and ripe cherry on the nose with the same on the pallet. An awesome full mouth coat gives the presents of new oak. — 8 years ago
Trifecta dinner for Sarah at Antler. This wine was so delicious. — 9 years ago
Fruit, earthy funk, acid = Emilia trifecta — 9 years ago
