My fav bordeaux of the night but others preferred the '85 calon segur...this was lightsr and more elegant, and more ready to drink but will still hold for several more years. Great mature old boots, leaves and mushroom with a kiss of cassis still hanging around...very well balanced, well oaked classic bordeaux. — 11 years ago

Reminiscent of Beaujolais' Gamay, this southern part of Tuscany's Ampeleia is producing some fine red wine! Mine tonight, after 30 minutes swim and spin in the decanter's pool of naked open space and air shows first to the nose wet rocks, slate and sandstone freshly accenting menthol and anise then strictly earthen dirt and minerals and a hint of the berries. First kiss is lightly but intriguingly nasty, wet and dripping red fruit which immediately coats and clings but most interestingly reaches back for the wet rocks overlooking the Med, then re-engages just in time to leave hints of her red and blue berry essence complimenting the blackened octopus in a mash of white beans and spices laced with a hint of Tabasco offered up by Chapel Hill's Il Palio located off Franklin Street (checkout both) Ciao🕶 — 10 years ago
Vallado.. Do... Do... Do... One of the best Douros I have tasted... Complex structure with the excitement of the first teenage kiss. It thrilled my taste buds and then danced at the back of my throat... Baroness very happy as it was the wine at her birthday celebration... I believe the vineyards of Douro are soon to become world class....@Delectablewine Delectablewine — 11 years ago

All the pretty stuff you would expect out of this producer. Flowers, quince, candied kumquats. Let it hang out in your glass and you'll get some baby's breath, lime, and something like your first kiss. — 12 years ago
I can really taste the vanilla on this. I also taste some caramel. Slightly sweet. — 11 years ago
Very nice and not too sweet! — 11 years ago
Crushed red fruits/berries, kiss of sassafras, lip smacking acidity, fine tannins that ride in the front seat. Medium-long finish. Immensely drinkable. — 11 years ago
Wine has a nice lemon, apricot, honeysuckle and maybe plumeria aroma. Taste is viscous and sweet but well balanced with a full sensory palette and long finish. Some bitter orange taste with well round sweet highlights. A fun evening dessert wine. — 12 years ago
