Classic example! Well balanced and can age at least another 25 years. Dark fruit, earthy, m+ acid! italianwine, #sommelier #studywine, #wine — 10 years ago
1982 Bordeaux First Growth. Great vintage. Color is garnet with some rim variation. On the nose, black fruit, overripe plum, tobacco, spice, chocolate, a bit savory and deep down a minuscule amount of Brett. On the palate, dry, m- acid, silky smooth tannins. Black cherry, dark fruit, minerality, and brine. Definitely not overoaked. balanced beautifully! It took about 30 minutes to open up. A bit funky at first but then the fruit pushed forward. An elegant wine that would pair well with food. I enjoyed it on its own! A chance in a lifetime to drink this wine! #bordeauxwine, #greatwine #greatvintage #rightbank #100pts #wine #firstgrowthbordeaux #frenchwine #lifestooshorttodrinkbadwine #lifeisgood #studywine — 10 years ago

100% Sangiovese and considered one of the "worlds elite wines". Sour cherry, dried herbs, a little Brett. A fantastic example of Sangiovese. #supertuscan #greatwine, #wine #vino, #sommelier #studywine #italianwine — 10 years ago
This wine is pure elegance! 100% of the grapes are from the Beckstoffer Dr Crane Vineyard. 95% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% petit Verdot. On the nose, blackberry, cassis, strawberry, mint, dried herbs, and black pepper. On the palate it is M++ balanced with a very long finish. this is a Cabernet Sauvignon that should be a benchmark wine representing Napa Valley. #greatwine #napawine#napawine#napawine #napa #wine #vino #sommelier #studywine #realmcellars #drcranevineyard #cabernetsauvignon — 10 years ago
