Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more

Soft black fruits, baking spices, very youthful, olive brine. Touch of tannin, soft velvety mouthfeel, medium length finish of ripe black fruits. Lovely example and exactly what I'm looking for in mature bordeaux.

Hugely potent cherry and liquorice on the nose, earth, dark and brooding. Delicious tannin, good acid. An excellent wine and one which you'd be happy just smelling all night.

So potent. Amazing balance between sweetness and acidity. Flavours are pure, good Botrytis, butterscotch, tropical fruits, hint of minerality. Finish lasts a long time.

The best Rielsing I have had to date, and in my top 3 whites. This was outstanding. I have not tasted a wine with such incredible balance. No element overshadowed any other, the delicate sweetness was held in check perfectly by the crisp acidity. Nose was gorgeous with petrol and tropical notes.

A fantastic wine and a treat to drink.

Beautiful wine, still very young, but this is a gem. Sweet nose of dark fruits and a savory note I couldn't place. Silky mouthfeel, great balance, good core of black currant. Very long finish, delicious.

1992 Ridge Geyserville

Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend, Zinfandel more

10/27/2013 - AWBryce wrote: 95 points

Nice and mature. Beautifully complex nose of cherries, cedar, forest floor and assorted red fruits.

The mouth feel was incredible. Tannins are fine grained and sweet. On the palate this was pure silkiness. Finish is long and almost liqueur like. Sweet red fruits, walnut, raspberry and nice balancing acidity (perhaps a bit on the lower side).
This wine is in a great place right now, and judging by other notes, it seems I drank a very well stored bottle. I would say this will hold for at least 3-4 years.

Just delicious.

Tasted at the estate...elegant, showing oak but well utilized. Fruit in abundance but not overripe, great acidity and minerality. Also had a chance to follow this for a few hours in a restaurant, it didn't disappoint. Would love to see this in a few years.

Crazy young. Pure red berries, caramel, blueberry lemon nose, some oak showing. Surprisingly smooth, open for drinking right now, might enter a dumb phase in a year or two? This will age effortlessly.
