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) |

11/18/2014 - NEBBIOLODOC wrote: 90 pointsEarth, dark cherries and spice. Medium finish and decent acidity. Went well with pork roast tonight. Have been holding off on Sojourn single vineyard pinots from 2011 up to now. Out of Sonoma coast so it's time to open them |

2006 Moon Mountain Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Feather RidgeSonoma Valley more |
6/6/2014 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 87 pointsUpon opening, I agree with others, too much oak. After an hour, however, it became a pleasant cab with dark fruit rising above the oak. Enjoyed, but wouldn't buy again. |

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. |

2007 Cascina Adelaide Barolo CannubiNebbiolo more |
1/5/2014 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 93 pointsOpened 4 hours before drinking. Should have decanted as wine developed in glass over 2 hours of consumption. Dark red fruits and spice. Modern style. Rich, powerful, smooth. Very accessible now. Not thinking this will age well over the long term but presents a beautiful Barolo to enjoy now while others of similar age sleep in the cellar. 93 pts. |

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, |

2008 Gabrielle Collection Cabernet Sauvignon JuxtapositionNapa Valley more |
9/2/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 92 pointsOpened 1 hour before consuming. Delicious cab/Syrah blend offering the best features of both varietals. Bold jammy red fruits initially (Syrah) followed by mid palate and long finish offering mellow tannins, cassis, dark chocolate and oak(cab). Really enjoyed with summer BBQ. Will be looking for more. Was even better on day 2. |

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. |

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.

8/12/2013 - NEBBIOLODOC Likes this wine: 91 pointsDark, dark purple. Huge black and blue fruits, moderate oak and firm well integrated tannins. Long finish of dark chocolate. Pretty decadent fruit bomb but not in a bad way. Very enjoyable with sharp cheeses. Not sure i would have it with a meal. Enjoyable and good QPR. |

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!) |
