Barbaresco Nebbiolo

Good anise, forest floor, spices to round out the dark fruit. Love the rose petal notes. Tannins are elegant but would love to taste this again in a few years. — 8 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1989

Beautiful wine that continually evolved over the two hours it was open. We consumed 2 bottles and the second bottle was more powerful, slightly more forward tannins and acid than the first bottle which seemed a little more constrained/reserved. Flavors of black plums, dry cherries, hints of sage and tobacco - classic Mouton. Quickly replacing 1985 Vintage Mouton as my fav. Love it.

Outpost

True Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Back home in SD for a Labor Day BBQ and this was an easy pull for ribeye. Velvet tannins overlay a focused dark blue/purple fruit array with tons of spice box and mocha, and the finish is endless. TRB definitely has skills with respect to Cab. — 10 years ago

Parducci

True Grit Reserve Mendocino Petite Sirah 2014

Toasty and alcohol dominant upfront, but a little decant or time in the glass and this peppery, oaky, berry petite Syrah is ended up nicely. Actually had enough glycerol flavor and structure to have some layering of flavors after 30 minutes, and would likely be even better in a couple more years. Dark fruit moves to the forefront with balanced spice and wood with some time. Not a huge wine, but really good value. — 8 years ago

Funky barnyard aromas blowing off to reveal beautiful Napa benchland fruit -- cherry preserve, leather. Such a nice mouth feel. Delicious. Love the style, passion and execution by @Cathy Corison — 9 years ago

Love is blind tasting. A much better showing than the 89. Pleasant and smooth. Pleasant for $169 is just not worth the special occasion price. — 11 years ago

Underrated vintage coming off the hyped-up '82 left banks...

I agree as I always look for the 83's at auction. I think the 83 Lynch is drinks better than the 82 and I love Gruaud Larose as well as Pape Clement in the 83 as well and you can buy them under $100. Happy 4th!
