2002 Abreu ThorevilosNapa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
12/21/2013 - johnh1001 wrote: 93 pointsIncredibly dense and primary with strong flavors of red and blue fruit and a slight wet stone quality. Nice spice. Rich and full in the mouth, although the alcohol could be felt. A massive wine that is excellent but a little heavy handed for my taste. |

2/10/2014 - johnh1001 wrote: 93 pointsMassive black and red fruit with some chocolate and caramel notes. I found this to be quite tannic which brought my score down. We decanted for about 1 hour prior to drinking so no doubt this could have used more time. A powerhouse of a wine nonetheless. |

2/3/2013 - johnh1001 wrote: 88 pointsVery pleasant Bordeaux. Ripe red fruit. Plums, some earth. Balances through the mid palate, but the finish is a little rough. Still, very nice wine for the money and excellent with food. |

2006 Alter EgoMargaux Red Bordeaux Blend more |
11/16/2012 - johnh1001 wrote: 90 pointsDecanted and drank over 4 hours. Pleasantly surprised. Big dark fruit, earth and tobacco on the nose. Silky texture. Bold modern flavors that match the nose. Big fruit and big tannin to match. Fairly straightforward wine that will round out with age but probaby not gain much complexity. Nice with food |
