Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Blend of 60% Grenache, 30% Tempranillo & 10% Graciano, aged for 6 months in used oak, for this debut offering, deep Ruby with aromas of red fruits, floral and spice. On the palate flavors of cherry and red plum with licorice and floral spice. Medium+ finish, fine tannins, good acidity balance, ending with fruit and mineral character. — 4 years ago

Almost Chablis-like, bursting with minerals, a tad smokey with notes of lemon curd, quince and a bit of chamomile — 8 years ago

Rich and smoky cherries, asks for some food thats been roasted, follows you around like you're on fire. Goes from low score to above 9 if you have the right companion elements. — 9 years ago

98' #priorat #wine Somewhat muted initially on the nose but opens up to ripe plums and jammy raspberries. Licorella minerality. Wine is a little past prime but still drinkable and enjoyable. — 10 years ago

Great choice with a good steak. Starts off a bit dry but opens up nicely with some air. A bit musty with ripe cherries, and a hint of dark chocolate. — 5 years ago

Great wine but be aware that it’s still very young. Not a typical Ponzi single vineyard Chardonnay, it’s still strong, greasy, reductive aroma and flavors are reminiscent of many a modern Cote de Beaune. Powerful, complex, detailed, earthy. Decant and aerate if drinking now but better still to cellar at least another 5 years. I’m projecting it will age gracefully for 25 years or more. — 6 years ago

Aromas of baked apples, apricots, nutty and waxy. On the pallet it’s crispy and refreshing with taste of green apples, creamy with a mid to full body mouth feel. — 6 years ago

Mexican Nebbiolo! This is super interesting. I would never guess it was Nebbiolo but it’s definitely new world! I get the tar but the trademark roses are missing. Yet in their place there is yummy dirt and black pepper and very ripe blackberries. I like. — 8 years ago

After 39 years, this wine still has held up well. Typical Rioja Tempranillo grapes with tobacco, leather and black fruit to the nose. Oaky. Almost no tannins and still balanced.
Given to me by a good friend of mine who obviously kept it well cellared all these years! — 9 years ago

Finished in Sherry casks. Very cool savory element to this. Salty minerality and green apple. Very unique but reminds me somewhat of dry Alsace Riesling — 5 years ago

I really like this one. Not super dry, jammy berry flavor. I bet this would be awesome with grilled meat. — 11 years ago
