4/25/2024 - Ben Christiansen wrote: NRHas a little bit of a touch of the green bean funky thing to it. But just opened so needs to freshen up a bit and get some oxygen. And a bit of a wooly oak character on the palate as well. But I assume that oxygen will smooth and broaden that out. |

4/24/2024 - henryfriendly Likes this wine: NRCigar, sandalwood, fruit cake, brown sugar, hints of perceptible but integrated oak. More than anything it smells like an expensive car. Cassis, dark plums, blackberries, spice, all wrapped up in a velvety package. Worth it? No, but delicious. |

3/15/2024 - SMHalps Likes this wine: 93 pointsOpened, but not decanted for over an hour before pouring. Part of a Little Brother night with my wine group at a NYC Steakhouse. This was the WOTN. Previously I had tried the 2015 version and wasn't impressed, but this bottle of the 2016 was great. |

2/17/2024 - SMHalps Likes this wine: 96 pointsCollectable Wine Night (Tuscany Steakhouse NYC): Almost 4 years since my last bottle and time has been very good to it! It was opened for an hour, but not decanted. We then poured it into glasses for 30 minutes before drinking. The overwhelming WOTN for my group. We all loved it! Full bodied, long finish and a nice mix of spice and fruit. |

1/27/2024 - ziavino wrote: 92 pointsLoads of ripe fruit here, with notes of peach, pineapple, and gooseberry commingling throughout. A hint of Key lime also weaves in, and the acidity is on point, mitigating a dollop of oak. Delicious, if a tad straightforward. |

1/21/2024 - jkvedar Likes this wine: 91 pointsAll fruit and California sunshine. Decanted for about an hour before pairing with beef and potatoes in beef gravy. This is a rich, fruit-forward wine but even at 15.2% ABV, it is balanced and not hot. Cassis, black fruits, menthol and chocolate on the nose. There is a minor earth component too. Rich, full-bodied on the palate. Medium tannins and medium minus acidity. Long finish does have a touch of a burn when enjoyed without food. |

1/13/2024 - clayh55 Likes this wine: 98 pointsI don't know if this was one of those magic bottles or something, but this was one of the finest bottles of wine I have had in some time. It still had some primary fruit with blackcurrant being the most prominent, but had loads of tertiary notes of leather, graphite and forest floor. The mouthfeel was like velvet with the tannins and acidity in perfect balance. Long sustained finish. Just gorgeous. |

12/27/2023 - Dan Lentz wrote: 92 pointsTasted at the pnp, and again after 3 hours decant. Powerful tannins and very astringent out of the gate, with a strong alcohol presence. Fruit was delicious with predominantly black fruits up front and throwing off a bit of toasty vanilla and cedar on the long finish. Just wanted to give it an early try, but I'll leave my remaining bottles in the cellar for at least 5 years I think... |

12/23/2023 - pgrzesik Likes this wine: 91 pointsGood bottle - typical excellent Lail sav blanc. We had it a little too cold at first, the nose was muted and fruit was being muted. But once it came up to room temperature a bit more you clearly saw this was a special wine. Lots of bright fruit - grapefruit, kiwi, and some Granny Smith apples. The mouth feel is luxurious, smooth, and clearly well integrated. Drinking really well now. |

12/12/2023 - MJP Hou TX Likes this wine: 94 pointsPulled a special bottle for a friends birthday in South Texas. The lone wine drinkers offering for a group of avid beer, tequila and scotch drinkers. I figured this would hold it's own if anyone decided to adventure across party lines. |

12/9/2023 - Tym4wine Likes this wine: 92 pointsThe herbaceousness has settled down significantly with just a hint of green pepper. The wine is deep and dark in the glass. Soft, rounded tannins with perfect bright acidity. Flavors of dark fruit and tart berry followed by a long finish. Alcohol (15.1%) provides some heat both on the nose and the finish. |
