DrinkNectar Does not like this wine: 80 points
March 16, 2010 - •The Stuff: The bottle says Napa and references Costa del Sol Cellars. My online investigation revealed next to nothing about this wine. The retail on the Grocery Outlet shelf said $60, but I was unable to validate that anywhere.
•The Swirl: Dark plum with a good color. Thins out toward the edge and is mostly opaque.
•The Sniff: The nose opens up with a nice black fruit and cassis. Hints of stone and oak come through as well.
•The Sip: The mouth feel is a Jekyll and Hyde. The initial attack is modest with good fruit but the finish is very bitter, woody and sharp.
•The Score: At $15, I score this wine a 2 (out of 5). A purchase price of $25 and over, I’d be ticked. At $15, I’m slightly disappointed, at $10 it still doesn’t make the Under $10 Team.
