10/10/2021 - skp88 wrote: 94 pointsContinues to please in a very brunello way. Only 2 left from original case. An in-store K&L recommendation, one of many good ones from the old days when I used to go to a store and buy what a knowledgeable sales associate recommended |

2006 d'Arenberg Shiraz The Dead ArmMcLaren Vale more |
6/18/2021 - skp88 wrote: 90 pointsIt was alright, but nothing profound. I was expecting something special like Dan aged northern Rhône or a bandol. This didn’t seem to have anything more than a brambly, black current stew, which goes well with charred meats |

4/10/2021 - skp88 wrote: 90 pointsStamperb’s review nails it: nothing stands out about this wine. On the other hand, the magnums I have were $50 at K&L and at that price point you get a restrained, food friendly wine that has no hard edges or distracting oak. It’s all balanced, unassuming and very reasonably priced. |
