On the improve perhaps? Really lovely. Acid ingrained with other phenolic and textural elements. Fine yet generous in flavour. Ripe stone fruit and the kernel. First class. 👌🏽👌🏽👌🏽 — 6 years ago

What an awesome gem from North Fork. Will keep an eye out on petit Verdot more often. Had with duck marinades with balsamic red wine (Beasley blend from Coffee Pot Cellar, another cool winery from North Fork). — 7 years ago

Very fresh, bright and young. Frankly, suffers in comparison with the 96, but super good fruit. Lime, chalk, slate, dazzling minerality and an intense palate with huge drive. A real baby. I suspect this won’t have the quality of the 96 but a zesty, wine with loads of potential. — 7 years ago

Lots of nutty character. Almonds and creamy hazelnuts come to mind. Bruised and oxidized red and yellow apples dominate the fruit. Dusty chalky minerality drive the wine. Great bubbles! — 10 years ago

Quintessential LLC Napa. 14.5% abv. Dark chocolate. Dark berries. Tabecco. Licorice. High acidity. Medium tannin. Probably great with steak but I had it with rotisserie chicken and Italian sub. — 6 years ago

A bit of CO2 at first but the bubbles go away after a while. On the nose : a bit of honey, peach, hay. Interesting and profound. The palate is wide and full of fruits, the acid backbone is a bit overwhelmed except at the end where the acid backbone comes back to drive the palate to a moderately long finish with peach. Cool wine ! — 7 years ago

Very powerful and intense. At 17 years amazing density and freshness. Honeysuckle, lemon, minerality and real drive and zip but still balanced and rounded. Delicious. — 8 years ago

Sure did make an impression. Big, rich, textural, stunning acid drive. Pears, apples, limes, and layers of molten honey! Likely some bot even - hints of it on the palate. Utterly delicious.

Add notes: Domaine des Roches Neuves. Biodynamic focus. L'Insolite - 80+ year old Chenin vines, clayey-limestone, sandstone and flint subsoil. — 8 years ago

Wow! So young, concentrated and serious! This Pinot driven masterpiece has power to spare and chalky drive like few others. A true Tete de Cuvée- small production and top quality. — 10 years ago

So much potential! The first out of my six that I bought prearrival, and opened to soon. Great dark fruit and drive to cut the ribeye that we enjoyed, but the best is yet to come foe this claret! — 11 years ago

After 10 years this is absolutely fabulous. Throw the French or English kings of cheese at it, and it will match them nobly — 6 years ago

A wonderfully inviting nose with hints of peaches, apricot, an underlying steeliness. The palate is heartbreaking- lush secondary notes but a bracing salinity and drive. In amazing shape and still bristling with life. Delicate yet powerful and hauntingly complex. Wonderful. — 7 years ago

Aromas of red cherry, raspberry, pomegranate and sweet tobacco.  Multi-layered flavors of red, blue and black berry fruit, plums, cherries and a hint of blood orange underpin subtle layers of exotic spice and toast.  Fine tannins and balanced acidity drive a long finish. Very Good. — 7 years ago

Pre-move-mania treat with J, A&A. Evolved, a little sherried, butterscotch. It woke up-- and freshened up-- but not quite as memorable as the delicious Jungle Bird chaser. At least I'm finally posting this... From a photo lurking in Google Drive..., — 8 years ago

Price point was 85 Euros, so I couldn't resist. Fine aromas of ripe pear, white flowers and a super fine tone of bourbon vanilla drive the nose of this wine. Beautiful, fully integrated acidity, again some vanilla, good tension on the finish. Still so much potential left. Could easily age for another 20 years imo. — 9 years ago
