Silkier tannins/more chocolate compared to the fam reserve. Fam reserve was grippier tannins and dense fruit. — 7 years ago

Under their Janzen label, Bacio Divino produces three vineyard-designate Cabernet Sauvignons from the Cloudy’s Vineyard, Beckstoffer Missouri Hopper, and Beckstoffer To Kalon. They also produce this Napa Cab which blends fruit from these vineyards with other select Napa vineyards. Kirk Venge is the consulting winemaker and viticulturist. Parker nails it with “intense notes of crushed plums, black cherries and mulberries plus notions of cedar chest, dried Provence herbs, underbrush and black pepper. Medium to full-bodied, the palate gives a very refreshing acid line, lifting the youthful black fruit, finishing long and chewy.” While the fruit is immediately evident and approachable, there’s still a fair amount of tannin. The acid provides an impression of citrus brightness atypical of many of its peers. And while I prefer Venge’s Silencieux, I’m not sure a comparison is relevant as this is completely different stylistically, and quite enjoyable because of that. — 8 years ago

Awesome recommendation from our local wine guy. Hadn't heard of if before, apparently it's a newer project from Kirk Venge. It's the Chardonnay but Delectable doesn't seem to have it in their database. Complex nose and palate of flowers, minerals, slate, apricots, mint, brown butter, blah blah blah. Basically, too many to list, but I like how it tastes a little different each time. Really nice acid and viscosity. Sure to age well. — 9 years ago

Such a huge fan of this winery. Uncut grass, a clean barn, white flowers, honeysuckle. On the palate, medium-light, brine. Well made. Rustic yet fresh. — 7 years ago

Plush aromas of cedar, cassis and blackberry cobbler on the nose. Rich flavors of blackberries, dark plums, cassis and cooking spices envelope your taste buds. The tannins are silky smooth and the acidity is perfect. One of the best Merlots I have ever tried. — 8 years ago

Not as dense as the venge version, which is mountain fruit beefed up by charbono skins. This is more typical sangio, with good spice and sweet bright fruit. Fun wine. Very rich. Prefer this over the b zin, which was a bit cloying. — 8 years ago
