Big Merlot that can hold its own with some of Napa’s big cabs. Went well with roast beef at Christmas dinner!

Bottle and cork were in pristine condition. The port was nice, but definitely on its last legs. Much lighter and less interesting than the last bottle we tried 2 years ago. Drink up or let it go to waste!

Bottle seemed corked. Nose smelled like cardboard. Odd since just received from winery. Hopefully just this bottle!

Drink sooner rather than later. As with many turleys, this Howell mountain rattlesnake does not have a lot of shelf life. Much softer than original release and a little too fruity and gentle for my preference.

Drink now. It does not have the longevity of other Del Dottos. Nice cab franc, easy drinking. Much lighter than the last bottle we had.

We poured the double magnum at a family feast and it was phenomenal. Rave reviews from everyone. Classic Napa cab.

Stunning first edition of Devil's Proof malbec. Definitely oaky, but mellowed out nicely after letting it breathe a little bit. Dark berry scents with a little vanilla on the finish. Drinkable now for sure - it was hard to share. Can't wait to drink the remaining 2 bottles...

- Garnet color - Drinking fabulously right now. Wish I bought a case. 16.5% alcohol is hardly noticeable. Chocolate, coffee, earthy and a little sweetness permeate throughout. Delicious wine.
