Drank after first pouring the 2006 Nebbiolo. Black fruit and red fruit galore. Neutral tannins and nice acid. Is drinking well now.

Beautiful flavors of prune and dark berries. Lots of sediment but it is a 1997. Long finish and still quite complex. Did not decant -poured straight from the bottle. Great bottle!

On the nose juicy dark cherry, dried pine needles, cola and pipe tobacco. On the palate, the tannins in previous notes have been mellowed out and the balance between tannins and acid is perfect. Finish is medium long and all fruit.

Nose was powerful with cherry, currants, and red plum. Vanilla, shiitake mushrooms and cigar box. Really let down by the palate. With so much going on in the nose the palate was just meh. Chocolate covered cherries.

Tart cherries and fall leaves on the nose. Palate cherries turn to plums and earth is more pronounced as crushed forest floor. Very Burgundian style and pleasant.

Marlborough more

Ruby red color with med - concentration. On the nose: plum, cherry pits and lots of violets. Eucalyptus and cedar that carry over to the palate along with black currants, anise, leather and forest floor. Finish was nice and long. Tasted along side Kim Crawford Pinot - Greywacke was much more complex and had a lot more going on the KC!

Nose was pleasurable but did not translate to palate. Good drinking wine but drank more like a $18 bottle and not the price range it often sells in. Possibly dying?

Opened and poured: Nose - faint cherry and blackberry once on palate all I tasted was smoke and game. Wine NEEDS food to balance out tannins and smoke. Tried on day two and tannins have mellowed out some.

2010 Three Wine Company Mataro Spinelli Vineyard

Contra Costa County more

3/31/2013 - erb Likes this wine: 84 points

I agree with other reviews that the wine is young. Initially tasted without food and found the tannins to be mellow and the palate to be heavy on the earth. Decanted and sipped with steak dinner and found the wine to be very pleasant.
The wine looks Crimson colored. The legs are Medium. It smells like Blackberry, Black currant (cassis), Forest floor, Mushroom, Game, and Burnt Match.

Lots of ripe black berries - raspberries, black cherries and plum on the nose. Black pepper on the nose and the palate with some coffee on the finish. Finish is long and complex -- fruit, violets, sweet pipe tobacco, hazelnuts, coffee beans all finished off with a hint of citrus (lime?).
