I am in love with Rose' the world over and this is another reason why. Really beautifully textured and terrific acid. Tonight it made a fine pairing with sashimi of tunas. — 9 years ago

An absolute go to semillon. Few are equal. None are better. Perfectly crafted and elegant. 11% alcohol and lovely acidity. A must buy. — 9 years ago

Even given my fascination with Italian wines, this is nothing more than a wine without remarkable flaws. Nothing to be seen here. Move on. — 9 years ago

Terribly shy on the first day open. Two days later, it shines with a bit more weight. Still not a oaky over the top style. Seriously delicious. — 9 years ago

Completely seamless and well structured. In a time where the frosting frequently is adored more than the cupcake, this one might get overlooked. Showed much more mid palate on the second day. Lovely. — 9 years ago

Absolutely the best pound for pound Cabernet you can buy. A voluptuous wine, but maintains varietal integrity. #topnotch #napakiller — 9 years ago

Richly textured. Clean and vibrant, but developed enough to be more than acid and wet stone. Delish. Definitely recommend. — 9 years ago

11 years old and still shows lively bright fruits and a backbone of minerality and clean acidity. First class. — 9 years ago
