2021 de Négoce Shiraz OG N.354 Barossa Valleymore |
12/30/2023 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 91 pointsToo young but excellent potential here. First day a bit rough but second day really quite good. Amazingly concentrated. Not intellectual in any way but it’s delicious. Reminds me what I used to love back in the day from Australia |

12/25/2023 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 90 pointsSolid wine. Lots of fruit. Very easy drinking. Not much character. Blown away by average vintage Pape Clement(2014). |

6/11/2021 - Zo65 Does not like this wine: 80 pointsAgree with prior tasting note. An over-Oaked disaster. By far the worst wine I’ve purchased from De Negoce. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

2018 de Négoce Cabernet Sauvignon OG N.25Spring Mountain District more |
12/17/2020 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 91 pointsOpened practically off the truck. Nose a little muted at first but then opened with big, classic Napa bouquet. Rich cassis with just enough oak. This is great now and should get even better. Best De Negoce purchase to date |

11/11/2018 - Zo65 Does not like this wine: 84 pointsA sloppy, gloppy mess. Per other’s notes, actually reminiscent of that Caymus anniversary abomination. |

10/21/2018 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 91 pointsReally nice nose. Perfect steak wine. Big, firm tannins slice through the richness of the New York strip. |

5/22/2018 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 92 pointsThis wine is really hitting its stride. Superb balance, just enough fruit with that unique Tuscan twist on the Bordeaux varietals. Wish I had bought a lot more. |

5/14/2018 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 90 pointsSimple, to be sure but actually quite good. Smooth as silk and blows away most domestic offerings in the same price range. May return to Costco for 6 more. |

4/2/2018 - Zo65 Likes this wine: 89 pointsAmazing bouquet; very Napa. One could enjoy smelling this wine all night. A bit thin in the mid-palate with a surprisingly tannic finish. |
