Best Merlot I’ve ever drank — a month ago
Literally the best. — 4 months ago
Post dinner party notes. Third bottle I’ve had of this and by far the best yet. Amazing. Such a complex nose, with roasted herbal notes, dark spicy fruit, earthy mineral iodine notes Tannins just about completely resolved. Length and depth for days. Wow. — 7 months ago
Cab before more is more - a perfect expression of old school California winemaking. — 2 days ago

Still plenty of structure, color was ruby not brown. Amazing complexity for a 79. What a treat! — 5 months ago
Probably the best Zinfandel I have ever had. Now like a cab. Great aroma, flavor, balance. We had it at the CIA cooking class — 20 days ago
This wine tastes like warm California sunshine. I’d say it’s at the end of its pleasurable drinking window. Good mix of secondary/tertiary character — 2 months ago
Really good cab sav someone gave us for engagement, not bitter at all but still rich (in a good way) — 5 months ago
Apparently not a Tuesday wine — 7 months ago

Delectable has like seven different versions of this wine in its ID function, which dilutes people’s ratings and impressions. Bummer. Dense color with a little bricking at the rim. Love the classic Pessac nose: earthy, cured tobacco verging on something vaguely vegetal, dark plummy fruit. Deep on the palate. Coats the mouth with rich, earthy flavors and deep fruit. Lots of tannin still but the flavor density does a pretty good job overriding it. Will definitely age. I clearly opened it too early in its development. — a month ago
