Mandarin orange, red and yellow cherry, melon, mushroom, cereal, subtle smoked meat, lovely texture and length, this is great pink Pinot — 10 years ago

2013 vintage: such an interesting expression of Prosecco, done in the old way, there's a bit of lees still in the bottle and you can taste them, it is quite toasty and savory, try it with shiitake maki — 10 years ago

2012 vintage: typical black pepper and violets, cherry liqueur and black plums, oak spice too, velvet textured tannin, still on the young side, easy but engaging — 10 years ago

Lemon oil, yellow apple, peach, grapes, white pepper, sage, vinyl, wilted roses, dry and stony finish, lingering petrichor, love it or hate it or be a geek about it, pairing for hollandaise asparagus? — 10 years ago

1947 vintage: amazingly fresh (hints of fresh fruit, but mainly candied, dried and cooked fruits), very intense and long (so many roasted, spicy and confected nuances), still sweet but I don't think it would hold up to many desserts, much better as the start to a meal, pair with super rich foods — 10 years ago

Not ready, but surprisingly engaging for such a primary wine. Try again in 5 or 10 years. — 10 years ago

Must try, so good, so not what one expects from Cali, a paragon of elegant Grenache — 10 years ago

2013 vintage: red and purple fruits, fennel and cacao, medium in body, pretty warm and soft until a kick of fine tannins at the end keep it firm and fresh — 10 years ago
