2017 Realm Cellars The BardNapa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
4/17/2022 - Wubai Likes this wine: 93 points2nd of 3. Big improvement over the first one 18 months ago, which was good but not great. This is really coming into its own now. Amazing nose, Black currant on the palate and a long finish. Nicely balanced wine overall, even a little restrained for this blend. |

2018 Andremily Syrah No. 7Santa Barbara County more |
8/22/2021 - Wubai Likes this wine: 95 pointsWhat a great expression of Syrah. Perfect mix of funk and fruit. Really hard to stop drinking. My first time having this and opened a bottle early to see what I had. Was not expecting it to be this wide open and giving so much pleasure. Will these shut down or do they typically always drink this well? Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Comments (2) |

8/15/2021 - Wubai Likes this wine: 93 pointsDecanted 3 hours with lots of aeration. A couple steps above a 14 we drank 6 months ago and maybe even drinking at a baby Bond level. This has many years of life left but has entered it’s early drinking window. 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (4) |

2013 Clos du Val Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
2/20/2019 - Wubai wrote: 91 pointsThis bottle received quite a bit of buzz when it was released due to AG’s score. I tracked down a few bottles at the time. Figured now would be a good time to open the first. Cassis and blackberry on the nose, smooth, balanced. I think this wine will only get better, over the next 2-3 years. Great qpr. |
