Atherton Wine Imports 2026 tasting at République, Los Angeles. 2022 vintage. Priced similarly to Pégau’s Cuvée Réservée. Medium/medium heavy body. Excellent views and a well-marked trail to follow. Plenty of stuffing with the balance to boot. 3.18.26. — 3 months ago

2008 vintage. CdlR. At golf club in Atherton with Mohammad, Saeed and Mohsen. After 2 hours open. Medium ruby hue. Dark fruits, coffee and chocolate, dark cherry. Heavy earth and slight shit smell - very attractive! On the palate, medium acidity and tannins - ripe. Medium plus concentration and long lingering finish. Excellent. — 10 years ago

Atherton Wine Imports 2026 tasting at République, Los Angeles. 2019 vintage. Medium-medium heavy bod. First third (of the palate) better than the last third. Makes promises and only partially keeps them. The 2018 had total follow-through. 3.18.26. — 3 months ago

Atherton Wine Imports 2026 tasting at République, Los Angeles. 2022 vintage. Medium-medium heavy body. This was like a home-cooked holiday dinner. What to load the plate up with first? So much good stuff. Tons of fruit and tannins and already showing great balance even though it just started walking. Resto cost? That’s the best part. $38 a btl. Sign me up. 3.18.26. — 3 months ago

Atherton Wine Imports 2026 tasting at République, Los Angeles. 2018 vintage. Light-medium body. More going on here than with the 2017 effort. Still, a fragile Margaux. 3.18.16. — 3 months ago

On the nose, dark, slightly baked/stewed; cherries, blackberries, strawberries, rhubarb, cherries and raspberries. Soft spices, vanilla, black cherry licorice and bright dark florals. On the palate; dark, slightly baked/stewed; cherries, blackberries, strawberries, rhubarb, cherries and raspberries, more pronounced spices on the palate, cinnamon, vanilla, clove, black cherry licorice, dry & fresh dark florals, chalky fine minerals, dry powdery earthiness, soft leather, touch underbrush, the acidity is like a waterfall, body is medium lean, dusty to grainy tannins are 75% resolved, showing brown tinge on the edges, the finish is in a really good place, round, lush and last a full minute. It's around its peak with 5-8 years of good drinking left. Newly acquired bottle (3-4 weeks ago) from a pristine Atherton cellar via my friend Alex at"No Limit Wines." The bottles that I received looked brand new from the winery 20 years removed and were reasonably priced. Photos of; the estate, the Lisini family, barrel room and my Veal Bolognese to pair with the wine. It's stunning and amazingly very fresh. Takes us right back to our lunch in Montalcino with another 97 or 98 with great Bolognese 5 or 6 years ago. Amazing lunch. 13.5% which is slightly above perfect. — 9 years ago
