2012 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon 40th AnniversaryNapa Valley more |
7/23/2015 - NEBBIOLODOC Does not like this wine: 74 pointsI was anxious to open my first bottle and weigh in on the debate. First glass of wine I can remember that I was unable to finish. Usually able to find some quality in every wine to appreciate. Not the case here. Artificial cotton candy/marshmallow fluff/ child's' cough syrup combination. All of natures' imprint on the grape just wiped away. Truly disappointing. Will gift away my remaining bottle.. 8 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

8/16/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC wrote: 86 pointsBig fan of this producer, but this bottle disappointed. Drank after 1 hour decant. Nice ruby color and promising nose of dark red fruits. On the palate,however, the fruit seemed dull and the tannins seem to dominate the flavor profile. Will wait another few years to have remaining bottles and use longer decant.

2/23/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 92 pointsDrank 2 hours after opening. Cherries, menthol and cocoa. Well integrated tannins. Medium length finish. Increased herbal and floral components develop with time in glass. Really nice young Barolo. |

2011 Maison Nicolas Perrin CondrieuViognier more |
5/15/2014 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 96 pointsTasted at Familie Perrin dinner at Charlotte WIne and food festival. Quite simply, one of the finest white wines I have ever had. Amazing bouquet of citrus. Flavors of Lemon, vanilla and crushed rock. Great minerality. Delicious. Ordered a 1/2 case in wooden box. Looking forward to enjoying continued development through time. |

8/27/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 89 pointsVery nice PnP. Bought this after tasting in barbaresco at winery. Bright red fruits and enough tannins to provide structure. Food friendly acidity. Would decant next time as it evolved over 2 hr consumption. |

4/24/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 91 pointsSurprisingly bright Chardonnay with some years on it. Citrus fruits and butterscotch. Lengthy finish with strong minerality. Probably on the down side of its drinking window but great QPR |

7/21/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 92 pointsDrank with Manley's while sitting next to Mandy Patankin at Good food on Montford. Silky smooth texture.

2010 Schild Estate ShirazBarossa Valley more |
7/27/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Does not like this wine: 82 pointsDisappointing. Not an expensive wine but based on excellent press I expected a nice everyday drinker. Dull fruit. Not very interesting. Short finish. Makes me happy to stay with italy and Spain to find best QPR. Would not buy again. |

2/24/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 89 pointsOdd, strong, "barnyard" nose upon first opening. Blew off after 30 min decant revealing beautiful strawberries and earth. Everyone enjoyed. Think I would wait another year to open next bottle. |

2009 Cantina Tramin Gewürztraminer Alto Adige - Südtirol Vendemmia Tardiva Terminummore |
11/30/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 95 pointsTasted in Italian alps last spring. Was the most eye opening wine of the entire trip (piedmonte and veneto). An explosion of pear, vanilla and lemon. Long finish. Complex. Flavor profile keeps changing during 30 sec finish. Not generally a fan of dessert wines, but his one blew me away, |

8/9/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 94 pointsWow. Big, lush dark fruit and firm, well integrated tannins create a beautifully structured, unique blend. Steadily improved over 90 min drinking window. Definitely decant. Glad to have 5 more bottles and see how this wine evolves over the next few years (if I can keep hands off of it!) |
