Incredible bouquet when decanting! Decanted for 2 hours. Deep ruby color. Big nose of spicy dark cherries! Dry upfront with a dusty middle. Then fades to plums. Medium dusty medium finish. Lush chocolate and leather on the finish. — 7 months ago
Fresh Violets, raspberry, cherry, sage. round with good acid and plush tannins! Happy 4th of July! — 5 years ago
A blend of mainly Merlot (73%) with smaller portions Cabernet Sauvignon, and Petit Verdot, the 2017 ‘Elevage’ was aged for eighteen months in 100% new French oak prior to bottling. Pretty red cherry aromatics connect with shades of cocoa powder and tar that all take shape in the glass. The mouthfeel and silky texture of the wine is truly outstanding. Layers of espresso bean and creosote connect with the bright red fruits and minerals that keep this wine shiningly brightly. The long dark fruit and mineral-driven finish lingers. Drink 2020-2035- 92

This ranked 2nd tonight among Cabs. I beat out Chimney Rock, Somerston, but couldn't quite exceed the Alpha Omega magnum. Solid Cab that was refined and had elegant fruit. Nothing that really stood out for me, but very drinkable and overall very pleasing. — 9 years ago
I've always liked Vietti's labels and the Barbera d'Asti Tre Vigne is a delightful departure from their usual illustrations from nature. Unlike the label art of a mask, and indeed of the mask from the El Gato Chimney painting behind, nothing is being hidden here. Overt and plummy and floral too, this 2010 reminds me why I love the vintage and how Barbera with a bit of age can be an utter delight. — 9 years ago
