3/9/2021 - Jeff Leve wrote: 100 pointsOpulent, powerful, full-bodied, dense and intense, this incredibly rich wine offers mouth-coating layers of ripe, lush, smoke and tobacco infused dark red and black fruits. What makes this wine great is that with all its power, you also find balance, elegance, harmony and layers of complexity. The expansive finish, with its ripe fruits, tobacco leaf, smoke, barbecue and oceanic minerality holds you captive for over 60 seconds! This will age for at least 3-4 decades with ease. The wine blends 56% Merlot, 37.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 6.5% Cabernet Franc, 14.6 ABV. |

A straight-laced L7 that has absolutely zero interest in being anything but a wallflower on the palate dance floor. There is no beginning, middle, or end. It just “is” in the mouth. Near flavorless right now, with a $7 Sutter Home White Zinfandel depth that barely has enough concentration or intensity to motivate even an ADHD 3 year old to get out of bed. Hold this for 4-5+ years and hope the “fruit” holds out. 83-85? points.

I can admit I’m lazy but I find corked and pre-moxed notes to be very useful.

I probably post one note for every 100 bottles I taste. Can’t handle the back seat driving and chirping. Over time I’ve realized that I can only take ratings with a grain of salt as there are a lot of people posting with very different levels of knowledge and experience.
I tasted through about 150 bottles a few weeks ago in Italy. It was fun.
The most memorable were the elegant ones … soldera, Montevertine and Stella di Campalto. Montevertine is a smoking deal and I’m glad it remains on almost nobody’s radar. Oops.

comply with the rules and realize I should pay attention to them. I’m gonna make up for the shoddy poggione with a bachelet charmes 2015. Infanticide but who cares.
