They say the best Sauvignon Blanc are made in New Zealand. This wine proves them right. This wine is definitely above average. Properly chilled is a wonderful complement to any meal. Highly recommend — 6 months ago

Lauer Riesling brings the heat as expected. Acidic and aromatic, would pair well with something spicy or even fried. — 3 months ago
Sometimes no other wine will do for me than old-style (13% ABV) Bordeaux, and this lovely medium-aged Pauillac absolutely fills the bill, redfruits, structured but not really tannic, great acid balance really lifts the fruit, not a blockbuster, but very fine nonetheless, I could drink a lot of this!! — a year ago

Dark ruby in color with a reddish rim.
Medium plus in body with medium acidity.
Dry on the palate with nice complexity and a great mouthfeel.
Showing black fruits with earth, vanilla, cedar, leather, licorice, tobacco leaf, peppercorn, pencil lead, dark coffee, spices and dark chocolates.
Nice length on the finish with round tannins and tangy raspberries.
What a great Cabernet Sauvignon based blend from Saint Julien.
This gorgeous wine feels much younger than it is right now. Complex and tasty.
This 18 year old will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 4 hours in the decanter.
Wine Spectator 96 points. Wine Advocate 97 points.
Thank you Robbie for sharing this with me.
The 2005 vintage was outstanding, and it's really shining through right here.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with a Charcuterie board of meats and cheeses. Will pair nicely with a nice piece of steak.
A blend of 67% Cabernet Sauvignon and 33% Merlot. Aged in 100% new French oak barrels.
