This is big bodied red with plenty of junk in the trunk. Lots of black berry notes and velvety smooth. It was excellent with pan seared pork chops. — 7 years ago

I will somehow suffer through this off year with its harmonious balance and excellent execution. It's immediate appeal and charming forwardness (the hallmark of such junk years) can be overcome with much effort and determination. Everyone stay back; I'll take this one for the team. — 9 years ago
My first Morstein experience from Klaus-Peter Keller. A lot of yellow fruit upfront so we decant it for 2 hours. Then you get more & more spicy and tobacco notes. A massive, deep wine with a lot of punch but also always a certain elegance. Typical for the Morstein site where the Soil is thicker. Gets better & better in the glass. Lovely salty component on the long finish. Much potential left. Just give it 5 more years in the cellar. — 9 years ago
Too much junk in the trunk. — 9 years ago
Super dark rich color - a lil tannic — I want to eat braised short ribs with this - also again a great salinity- so maybe something with anchovies — 6 years ago
A few years ago Spanish wine was a total bargain. Then they figured out they could send us junk. I stopped buying. But in desperation recently I got this and was surprised. Really pretty good and both varietals are very present. Even better after a day, showing some interesting depth. Maybe cheapie Spanish wines are back to being bargains. — 7 years ago

Good bit of petrol on the nose. Not quit as rich as I would have imagined. Plenty of fruit left. Drinking really lovely. Oh Lotus of Siam, how I cannot wait to be back! — 9 years ago
This is a big, juicy Cabernet with plenty of junk in the trunk. Smooth with flavors of blackberry and black cherry on palate with notes of chocolate in the finish. This wine is amazing. — 6 years ago
Cherry, deep earth, a bit of greenery, and nice oxidation. Still a bit hot, but hangs together. Found in the "hazerai" (Hebrew for junk) section at K&L for $14. — 7 years ago
An aging project, this Michael Shaps led Cab Franc had a real since of place "taste". I think this was given a non-case Gold in VA. Really good structure - tannins and acid still carrying real strong energy! The success in this aging process: tempered junk! You know, the wild red fruit mixed with the herbal spice...it was mellowed into an elegant to Tenor. Loud yet articulate :) — 8 years ago

Crunchy and intense Dolcetto with plenty of crystal junk floating around at the bottom of the bottle. — 6 years ago
