At 47 years this wine sings with well preserved fruit and aromatics. Solid cork did its job. Quite fun to share and drink. 👍👍🍷🍷 — 2 years ago

What a pleasure to share with dinner @ Rocca in Burlingame. Solid cork after 47 years. Very balanced with mature fruit that did not show its age. The Merlot provided wonderful flavors of light berry compote and a deft touch of oak. Classic Bordeaux in every way. 👍👍🍷🍷 — 3 years ago

Up front this is my favorite vineyard from Ridge for Zinfandel. Wonderful rush of mixed dark berry fruits and it gets better with a good decant. Medium full body and solid tannins that will allow for good cellar life. Pagani is the leader in the Ridge line of vineyard designated Zinfandel. Stellar wine and producer. 🍷🍷🍷 — 3 years ago

Well made Walla Walla Cabernet. There’s dark fruit, balanced tannins, proper oak and a mouth filling rush of fine wine. Very complex and generous to all the senses. 14.5 ABV is not hot or in the way of the experience it has to offer. 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 3 years ago

Total command of robust fruit and proper amount of oak. High toned aromatics with mouth coating layers of texture. This wine has all things in prospective. 14.5ABV fits so well with the body of Mi Sueno. First rate Cabernet. 🍷🍷🍷 — 3 years ago
