Vistas A La Colina

Oro En Paz

La Colina Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

K U
9.5

Great natural varietals. Floral. Was harvested naturally no added water. The more natural flavors of cab sauv. Harvested wary to get the flavor is the grapes. Organic. Nice dark fruits. Tobacco leaf, blackberry earth, beautiful soft dark fruit flavors. Nice soft luscious tannins. Aromas of dark fruit, bramble and a touch of earth and dried sage. Not overly dry. Not the typical California standard. No new oak. — 11 years ago

Oro En Paz

La Colina Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2012

K U
9.1

Repressed tannic wine. Great to drink young. Doesn't need to age for more than a few years after the year. (From the wine maker) nice volcanic smoky ashy tar flavor. Nice floral tones to this wine. Aromatic. The fruit isn't jammy that has nice fruit flavors. Not too bitter. More approachable than many strong cab francs that you may typically get in Napa. Nice soft finish. — 11 years ago

Alta Colina

Toasted Slope Estate Syrah 2010

Opaque violet color with appealing graphite, toast, smoke, black fruit, and spice aromas. On the palate it medium-bodied, fresh and harmoniously structured with a supple texture, and well integrated fine tannins with black cherry, black raspberry, a hint of dark roast coffee, and subtle spice flavor accented with an wonderful minerality. Long finish. 15.5% alcohol — 11 years ago
