For a young Côte Rotie This is very expressive. White Pepper, floral notes of lavender and provincial herbs. Juicy black berry fruit Flavors with fairly soft tannins. Going great with my bone-in ribeye. 👍 — 8 years ago

2010 enjoyed with grilled octopus. Meyer lemon saline notes wet stone, coriander seed and floral notes. Grace and power at the same time. Amazing freshness for a 6 year old white wine. Thoroughly surprised. — 9 years ago

2007 #kabinett is still amazing! The color is like looking into the heart of the Fort Knox gold. Sweet lush apricot and orange rind with just enough acid to hold it all together. Glad I found this hidden in the cellar. Great way to reward myself after a long week. Time to share it. — 10 years ago

Great first vacation meal with lamb curry and 2007 Finca Decero Petit Verdot Remolinos Vineyard. Elegant and aromatic with bright and flavorful red fruit and herbaceous qualities that complimented the spice of the curry sauce and marbled texture of the lamb shoulder — 10 years ago

One word "WOW"! Superb balance. Meaty, subtle spice and pepper with tart raspberry and sweet red fruit. Tannins perfectly integrated. Slight oxidation at the level you want for this age of wine. Happy I dived into the deep end for this one! — 10 years ago
