January 31, 2021 - Balanced and straightforward. Creamy texture. Round fruit and adequate acidity to pair well with an array of foods. Held well into day 2.

Glenn Gilbert Likes this wine: 90 points
January 8, 2021 - 13.9% alcohol; imported by Folio Fine Wine Partners, the Michael Mondavi Family, Napa, California; real cork with maximum of 19 mm wine penetration, aroma of citrus & grapes; sturdy, medium weight foil; medium legs, dark purple/brown; nose of yeast, earth, stone fruit, rhubarb; opened, vinturied, and tasted 20 minutes later at approximately 19 degrees C; sourness and tangy-ness predominant over tannins, bitterness, and sweetness, but in a good way -- this wine has character and is a premier food-pairer -- try steak on the grill, cooked rare; notes of cassis (schwarzer Johannisbeersaft), rhubarb, cranberries, blueberries, citrus, some wood/vanilla, tannins remain subdued; medium to long finish with reminiscences of berries; the label describes the wine as a preservation of 'the purity and raw flavors of this place', the Uco Valley high desert 'with plenty of sunshine' at just over 900 meters; as music interprets life, this wine tells us about its terroir in another language
