Elegant Cali Syrah. Floral with high-toned dark fruit black pepper, and a savory backbone. Great minerality and acidity. — 17 days ago
Drinks like a ripe Bordeaux. Varietally correct black currants and eucalyptus are accompanied by lush, blueberry fruit, cedar, vanilla, with an incredible depth and and an acidity that gives way to a lingering finish. As good as Napa gets. — 2 months ago
2015 is a bit muted - i feel montrasell is meant to be drunk young. There is still nice spice with rich, dark fruit and some faint herbs that are fading. Full bodied. — 13 days ago
Elegant - raspberry, rose and just a touch of vanilla and smoke. Great. — 2 months ago
Power and focus. The wine is certainly rich, with dense dark fruits and firm, leathery tannins, but there are also nice floral notes with some cocoa and coffee smoothing things out in the back end. Awesome winter red. — 3 months ago
Apple, slightly floral with a kiss of oak, honey, and vanilla. Doesn’t have the minerality of “fancy” white burgundy, but still a great value. — 16 days ago
Needs a bit to open, but it opens with beautiful cherry, herbs and incense, with great earthiness and minerality. A subtle but beautiful wine. — a month ago
Needs time, slightly green and floral, with blueberry. — 3 months ago
Lovely. Blackberries blueberries, with some mint with great minerality and some cocoa. Oak adds to the structure of the wine and plays a supporting role. A lovely Cabernet. — 3 months ago
