2006 Donati Family Vineyard ClaretPaicines Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/24/2010 - Cabfrancophile wrote: NRWish I had bought more at the price. Lots of flavor here, yet nothing off-putting either. This time the gaminess of the Syrah, and jammy cherry and mint of the Bdx varietals showed through. Some heat on the finish. Full bodied with plenty of ripe fruit and complexing aromas. I prefer wines a little bit more cut and elegant, but there's a lot going on here that makes it enjoyable. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

11/9/2010 - Wino73 Does not like this wine: 75 pointsAt first sniff I swore my dog just walked by after playing in the rain. The wet dog smell so strong I set the wine down for about 20 minutes before taking the first sip. This softened the wine a bit but still it remained a bit hard to swallow. Its pretty tart for a Cabernet. I cant even tell what Im tasting. I don't like it that much. Seems unbalanced, acidic, and difficult to get down. Wish I could be more specific. I did like it at some point though because I bought it. Will try again tomorrow. Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

If I hadn't checked the label and tasted this blind I would have sworn it was a French Bordeux. Truly a classic, in style, Bordeaux blend and from all places...central coast. I will by more and recommend you at least try it. PBM nailed it along with viejo322 and cabfrancophile. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

11/12/2017 - ramclain Likes this wine: 88 pointsNice notes of pineapple and tropical fruits. Due to the stainless steel this wine is crisp, clear, and fruit flavorful. Paired perfectly with a pork and pineapple dinner. |
