Delicious, savory cab franc and a great value. More leather and herbal notes than fruit. Fairly tannic for the style. Versatile food wise. — 7 years ago

1st vintage if this wine, so a real treat to try. A little shrill and sharp at the front. Lovely fruit. Still some fresh notes but in a good place age-wise. Doesn't hang together as well as the wines beside it. — 8 years ago

Astonishingly good wine. Most guides tell you to pay more than £8 at least and that's wise, but this tipple was infinitely better than the Malbec reserve that set me back £9 from sainsbury. It's silky, deep, vanilla-cherry and unctuous. Can't see through the liquid, buy it by the case before the maker twigs. — 9 years ago

This wine is simple brilliant and ready to drink! The nose leads with hints of bright red fruits then quickly transitions to an earthy smell ripe with fresh rain. Tastes of subtle dark fruit, followed by mild tannins, with a lush mineral finish. We are pairing with mussels braised in a tomato confit, glazed pork belly, and classic steak and potatoes. This wine is certainly a top hit!!! — 10 years ago

If the '07 is the wise old man, this is the early-40s cougar. Lively on the front, saucy. A lot going on, confident. Will enter round, sage wisdom in a few years (post-menopause?). — 10 years ago

Fabulous blend, fruity with notes of plum, blackberry, and vanilla. Smooth but lively and present beginning, with an earthy finish that paints the palate dry. Let it open up for a few minutes before diving in. — 8 years ago

A few more years in the cellar would have been a wise decision. Still lovely. Full bodied. 8/5/16 — 9 years ago

A wine worth writing about. A hearty but delicate Pinot with dark rich berries. It's an underground all star. — 10 years ago

9.1

Too young, though currently it has plum, cola, spice, some intermittent funk, plum, sandalwood, a complex bouquet of aromas and flavors. Texture wise the tannins are pretty interense now, so they need to (should) resolve. #lapaulee #athome — 10 years ago

2011 (why doesn't Delectable allow me to choose one somewhere?) Much more interesting than could be guessed from its modest price. — 11 years ago

Had this one before, very good. Great complex flavor, "cool" wine (temperature taste wise). — 12 years ago

9.1

A fruity bold smell to it. However drinking wise it is light, smooth with a nice light fruity and spicy taste but not masses of depth or finish to it but very enjoyable. Overall a nice drinking wine at a Turkish restaurant. — 8 years ago

Excellent Chardonnay! Crisp apple taste with vanilla finish. Great bottle. — 9 years ago

9.2

Aromatic, but a little too much oak and alcohol coming through. Fresh and racy, coming out of Castelnuovo del Abate, one of the hotter subzones of Montalcino climate wise. All the way down at the bottom of southern Montalcino. South facing slopes and lots of sun. Maybe too much. — 9 years ago

My 4th bottle, the best and my last, this absolutely killed it and is why I love Napa Valley Cabernet, especially #Spottswoode. 12 years old this easily has another 10 to go but is in a beautiful place right now. Open or decant for 30 minutes, though I did not decant. A deep resold color, not a sign of brick as one would expect. Shows the importance of provenance (bought from winery). A complex set or aromas and flavors of creme d'cassis, currants, sweet and sour cherries, sweet cedar, and graphite. Palate wise the textures are all in alignment, with medium to full body, ample acidity and medium grain slightly chewy tannins that may be it's only flaw. #2002 — 10 years ago
