9/13/2022 - Paulzzz Likes this wine: 90 pointsAroma is very fruity with a mix of lime, peach, and grapefruit (my guess). Tastes quite fruity, refreshing, with peach, lime, and grapefruit. Not much of a finish, sort of a light sampling of what it tastes like. Quite good say the Reds 'only' drinker. |

2/19/2020 - The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 89 pointsRetail $22. SIP Certified. While there is still not a ton of Albariño made in this country, there is certainly more of it every year. This effort by Castoro Cellars in Paso Robles is a fine rendition. Golden in the glass with stone fruit and minerality on the nose with good fruit, oodles of acidity, but a bit short on the mid-palate. It finishes fairly strongly, as the fruit lingers for a good minute. Very Good. thedrunkencyclist.com |

I paired with red sauce and it was delicious, followed by some chocolate for desert, which was also delicious. This is a top-notch barbera that I would buy again without reservation. |

6/8/2010 - bigben10 wrote: 88 pointsTried in three phases. First out of the bottle it was very bright/pungent, almost too much. So, I ran it through the Vinturi which made it very nice with a nice finish. Not sure it complemented the meatloaf and spaghetti that was for dinner, but it was good nonetheless. The final phase was perfect. I let it sit for an hour in the glass after running through the Vinturi. The wine became very smooth with pleasant fruit at the end. I liked it very much but might need a bit more time (as evidenced by the Vinturi use and letting the glass sit). |

The nose smelled like wine, the palate tasted like wine. Nothing wrong, nothing pruny, but no flavor at all. Interesting. Maybe like drinking wine with Covid. Oh no.... |
