2016 Le Vigne di Zamò Friuli Colli Orientali Merlot V. Cinquant'annimore |
4/28/2024 - Al-Vino Likes this wine: 92 pointsPerfect example of how cellaring time can totally transform a quality wine. This bottle has turned into something very special. Much more depth and character in the finish. Still has that distinctive Merlot undertone that pairs well with pastas and red proteins. |

4/28/2024 - Perfectly Paired Likes this wine: 94 points30 minute decant. Dark ruby red color. Great aromas of red berries, blueberry, with earthy oak notes. Lush medium bodied palate has raspberry and blueberry, mocha, and spice. Tannins are fine and velvety. There is a touch of acid and a wonderful finish. Drinking well! |

1999 Arietta MerlotNapa Valley more |
4/28/2024 - asiabear Likes this wine: 94 pointsAt lunch with JD in Yorkshire Inky deep purple with lots of black currant fruit and a fair mouthful of tannin making for a chewy experience. I think this will continue to develop though the cork was bad as I have experienced with other early Arietta bottling so there could be issues with individual bottles. |

NV Louis M. Martini Merlot California Mountain Edge Hill Selectionmore |
4/27/2024 - RichEB1 Likes this wine: 96 pointsIt’s always fun to pop an older Louis Martini wine and I was especially excited about this Merlot since it carried the ‘Edge Hill’ designation. The cork was in great shape and when it poured an incredibly beautiful light red color with very little bricking (tried to get a few pics but they don’t do it justice), I know we were in business. On the palate this was truly stunning, and the words ‘etheral’, and ‘pretty’ immediately come to mind. It’s light bodied and just bursting with cherries, herbs, violets, and a hint of sweet leather on the long, acidity filled finish. Honestly, I would be SHOCKED if anyone drinking this blind would call it anything other than aged burgundy/pinot. What an absolute treat and everything that I was hoping for and more. I was able to score one more bottle of this at auction and already have my fingers crossed that it shows as well as this one did! |

2014 Korbin Kameron MerlotMoon Mountain District more |
4/27/2024 - BenF87M2 Likes this wine: 94 pointsNose of cassis, leather, chocolate, vanilla and wet forest. Light body, mild tannins that build and a crisp, late hit of acidity. Palate of palate of cedar, balsamic, cranberry with long cedar and black cherry finish. Still has some room for age, but I feel it’s in its prime drinking window. Consume between now and the next 3 years |
