Nice refreshing dark rose. Shy nose with cherry & raspberry. Solitary palate with balanced acidity and light mineral. Crisp finish. — a month ago

a barolo in a bear suit....a solitary hibernator, hard soil under pine needles on the forest floor, almost snow-scented. awakens slowly, but when it does it’s fierce. — 6 years ago

Came upon this ~no recollection of where it came from, or how it ended up in our cellar. ??? It was a crowd pleaser. — 7 years ago

The white star of the evening, despite having a subdued nose of prickling minerality, lemon zest diesel kumquat and spice. Not going to be a real long-lived vintage, but may probably show even better in 5 years. Palate was explosive and concentrated to the point of pain, layered with fresh spicy kumquat. A lighter color than usual due to solitary old barrel use in this one, a bit lighter in body but by no means less potent. Outstanding blanc! 1991 vintage. — 10 years ago

Last solitary vineyard down in the south of Margaret River nestled between the Southern Ocean and the Pacific one.
The wine is so mineral and powerful that fits more in a GC Chablis category than in a classic MR Chardonnay one.
Terrific wine and long.
Find a photo of the vineyard, it looks spectacular! — 8 months ago

Top juice, this will develop for many years but is extremely good now with a 2 hour decant, puts a smile on your face. Big wine, big flavours on the nose and the palate, built for the long haul, buy at least two so you can try one now and confine the other to solitary for a long stretch. — 6 years ago

9.4

2021 vintage. Old-school styled, Napa cabbage. The solitary nod to new-school is the medium-heavy body. Focused, dark fruit presence (not as much as Freemark Abbey but not far behind either). Plenty of value to be had here. Grip if you want it. Fruit if you so desire. Obvious balance. Nicely done. First Neal product visit/tasting but it won’t be the last. 1.24.24. — 10 months ago

This bottle maybe be crying one solitary tear, but I cheer for depth of berry body and the complex velvet mouthfeel. Tip tip, hooray! — 6 years ago

This is the Campanian Wine version of Chelsea Manning - superficially a somewhat rough-looking woman, but definitely masculine underneath. I feel like Obama for prematurely commuting her sentence, as this should stay corked in solitary confinement a while longer. #TooSoon? — 8 years ago
