  • Cabernet fruit is dominant right now…delicious and sweet…this is singing. Tannins are completely integrated, huge length, full mid-palette. This is drinking primo right now and I’m glad I have 1 left. Wow!

  • Crimson in color. 14% ABV. 45% Cabernet Sauvignon, 30% Merlot and 25% Syrah. Stunning nose of dark fruits, leather and menthol. Medium to full bodied with tremendous acidity. Concentrated, powerful and well balanced. Blackberry, currants, cassis and eucalyptus on the palate. Exceptional length on the finish. The Cabernet Sauvignon really shines here and the eucalyptus notes are unique and compelling. I’ll open my last bottle in 2024.

  • One of my favorite super Tuscans! Graphite, cedar, dried red fruit, dark cherries, tobacco, soft raisin, plum, medium to full body, velvety long finish! Drink now up to 3 years.

  • Dark crimson in color. 14% ABV. Spellbinding nose of red and black fruits, leather, cigar box and mint. Medium to full bodied with exceptional acidity. Plush and rich with chewy fruits in spades. Black currants, creme de cassis, plums and tobacco on the palate. The finish is tremendous with warm, silky tannins. Impressive wine that is aging beautifully. I have a couple more bottles and at least one of those will make it to twenty years from vintage. Best over the next 2-4 years.

  • Enjoyable with roasted prime rib, creamed spinach and roasted potatoes. Smoothed out. This bottle threw a lot of sediment. Enjoyable and ready drink. Wouldn’t wait longer on these.

    (Argiano Solengo) #3; VaynerPAZZZ (based on QPR); COLOR-dark; NOSE-very tight; I like the elegant strawberries coming through; burnt leather aspect; TASTE-good fruit; very polished; very New World; very candied; good elegance; enormous amounts of Plum on the mid-palate rounded out w/ some Pixie Stix powder; good firm tannins on the back-end; slightly bitter as this is a young wine; it's got good fruit; reminds me of many $30 Cabernet's; good ripe fruit; some oak & vanilla; interesting balance; it's a little disjointed now, but may come together with some time; good wine, but a tad bland and boring right now; AG-93; GV-90
