15.8%. Yet still this is a great wine. Deep dark fruit. Cherry, blackberry, so juicy. Yes a cocktail wine but o’boy is this nice. Someone dropped this off on our TGIF! People drank it and had no clue about the $$$ of the bottle. Connoisseur Series - Block 3. — 8 days ago
At this point out of wack. Needs 2-3 years. Tannins a little harsh. Hint of oregano - some whole cluster, cherries. I am sure this will cross over 9 in a couple of years from now. Lacks interesting secondary flavors at the moment. — 20 days ago
Impressive, Cranberry, touch volatile acid, cherry, juicy, lots of tannins. This is really good and reminds me of the Burghs in the old old days before they did get stylized. Biodynamic, 13%. — a month ago
Parking Lot - Trader Joe’s 30$ Barolo. 14.5%. Tasted on the spot! With the mini snack cups from T.G. Brownish tinge, tealeaves and quite tart. Lacks classic Barolo flavors - will pass up on this one. Sad 😞 - Great vintage how can anyone screw this up? Might this needs hours of air and or a proper glass? Will add to these notes - in 3 hours. May be i am wrong? — 7 days ago
Golden in the glass. Big and structured. Tons of fruit. Almost too much for me. Jasmine, lemon curd, pear on the back palate. Touch sweet. 360 cases made. 13.7%. Clearly this wine was made with care and determination. Let’s see what the future brings. Will put this away for 3-4 years. — 20 days ago
Quite rich and big. Hint roasted hazelnuts meyer lemon. Clearly high quality juice. Some tannins. Hint orange juice. Touch pineapple. Overall lacks depth. Nice though but $$$. After shaken but not stirred and kept under my Argon line gained statue. — a month ago
Serve-able and just OK. Cherry (very) driven. And not much more. Seems too light despite 14.1%. Lacks stuffing. — 8 days ago
Iodine, earth, dirt, tannic. A big wine will easily hold up to steak or game. Orange peel, touch dark ripe cherries, spices (touch cinnamon), black tea leaves. Full of character and terroir driven. From South Africa. Decomposed Granite and volcanic rock. 13.5%. — 14 days ago
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone. On Big Island and I schlepped three wines to Hilo. This is the last one. Last bottle I think. Cherry, port wine, bing cherry, hint concentrated orange juice, touch plums. A big wine for Vosne but for steak and Ahi it made sense. — 22 days ago

Some herbs and at the same time light. Not convinced. So sorry 😞. I love Tautomer. — 6 days ago
