Typical Thursday night in St Helena. Expensive wine with chips and salsa, oh and guacamole. Packed with eucalyptus, lingering oak on the nose, smooth dry finish a slight kick

Wonderfully mature, showing brilliant structure and restraint. Very nuance driven and subtle, soft but fresh dark fruits. Old world meets new world.

An awesome wine with rich, vivid, concentrated currant, black cherry, plum and wild berry flavors that are sharply focused. The tannins are ripe and smooth with a supple, graceful finish! Outstanding!

Go big or go home. I drink something like this once every six months or so to remind myself to buy more Monte Bello and unspoofulated Bordeaux.
