The Gracious Gift

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2015

Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (70%), Merlot (24%), Petite Verdot (3%) and Cabernet Franc (3%). Dark ruby/purple color. Aromas of plush black fruit, violets, graphite, leather, cedar and wet gravel. Jammy raspberry and blackberry fruit flavors with additional notes of plums, black currants, mocha, coffee, tobacco and baking spices. Beautiful hints of smoke and dusty earth on the long and precise finish. Rich and concentrated with great intensity. Medium-plus body and some noticeable tannins. Still a bit tight, but heading to a very good place. Thank you so much for the wonderful gift, Kasey and Pete! — a month ago

Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

2019. Really solid. High alcohol @15%, but drank surprisingly well even without food. Opened up nicely and was smoother the 2nd night.
Was part of JW's bday gift.

Tasted fed 2022. Birthday gift from Mrs Piccini so already biased to love it. Sharp fruity red berry smell. Full chocolate almost? taste. Super smooth to drink but loaded full of flavor really really like it. 4/4 — 3 years ago

Robert Mondavi Winery

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Surprised at how good this is with minimal decant! Qualifier is that I can probably easily replace this wonderful gift from my brother if need be!
Mondavi is an Icon and I love his wines! I am getting eucalyptus, black licorice, dark chocolate, dark brambly fruit, macerated cherry, vanilla and cedar! Pretty great on PnP..when your brain is screaming "you will be sorry" at you!
