This is showing so much better than the one I had ten years ago. I think I got them from the winery when I visited. This is really quite balanced and extended, definitely one of the better Ports I've had from Napa.

Sweet and enjoyable for an after dinner drink. Opened next to a vintage port and it falls quite flat.

A bit sweet and thick. Will drink over several days and see how it works with various desserts.

It's a zinfandel, and a port!! Love it! Especially with ginger snaps. Meaty enough to be a meal all by itself, including dessert. Somebody else said tastes like chocolate, and I get that texture, but the flavor for me is caramel, with a bit of cherry and plum. I don't normally like sweet wines, but there's body and complexity enough to balance and elevate the experience. I let it breathe for 20 mins after opening, but it's probably unnecessary. Ages very well.

Not as good as at the winery. Not sweet enough to be a port. Left me wondering what I was drinking instead of enjoying drinking it.

2004 Rodney Strong A True Gentleman's Port

Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend, Zinfandel more

1/9/2008 - 5laton wrote: NR

sfwine Port Tasting: Ruby, Tawny, Colheita, White, Vintage: Prune-y black fruit dominated nose, with cooked fruit aromas and some brambly berry notes. Quite sweet on the palate with extreme tarry, scorched flavor, chocolate, fruitcake flavors, but also some nice freshs berry flavors as well. Some zingy acidity, but given the lack of structure it's not really enough for the late-harvest sweetness here. For a sweet wine, the length is disappointingly flash-in-the-pan.

Amazing. This is a Port, that has all the characteristics of a fabulous Meritage akin to a Opus 1. It has fabulous nose, almost as much fun to smell as drink. When you reward yourself with a sip, it is amazing, bursting with Meritage quality array of flavors, the finishes almost like a great Bourbon or Scotch.

Eclipses all the off-shore Ports,... get some.

Solid, dark, tastes like it has Portuguese varietals (I don't actually know). Sweet, but in a dark way and not syrupy. Above average complexity & finish. Excellent value.

2015 Rodney Strong Asymmetry SOCO Barrel Auction Lot# 49

Sonoma County Red Bordeaux Blend more

3/13/2021 - AllRed wrote: NR

Decanted for an hour or so. Loads of vanilla and black fruit to start, but with air this developed nicely. Black fruit and herb elements, taking on a slightly earthy Bordeaux-like quality. Balanced. Tannins are fine-grained. Abundant fruit on the palate. Excellent.

A true Cab Franc-big, bold and heavy. This has been open a week or so but had a Coravin in to preserve it. Very acidic tonight which I don't recall in the first couple of glasses. Jammy with blueberry and earthiness. Rating would probably be higher if not for the acidity.

This is a textbook CA Cab Franc. Heavy, but not overwhelming with pepper and a lot of earthiness. Some bite from acidity, but not enough to take away from the wine. It finishes very long and warn. This will last another 5 years or so.

This is a full rich wine with bramble, leather and blueberry. There is high acidity - a bit too much, that draws away from the notes in the wine. Drink this one chilled the mid 50's to cut the acidity.

More old world in style, strong backbone of currant and graphite. Could still develop more in a couple of years.
