Vintage 2010 | Awesome! Malvasia and Sangiovese. 325 Gr residual sugar. Honey. Caramel. Abricot. Above all the most charming acidity that makes this wine a treat to taste. 6 years barriques. Stunning. 1.000 half bottles made. — 10 days ago

Quite polished in every way. Hard to compete after having the ‘88 Jamet right before it. — 15 days ago

Popped and poured. The 2015 LVdA pours a deep violet color and is now throwing a significant amount of fine sediment. On the nose, blue and black fruits, black pepper, deli case, black olives, lavender and stone-like minerals. On the palate, the notes from the nose are confirmed and accompanied by some chocolate too. Medium tannin and medium (+) acid. On the pour, the body is a touch thin for my liking but it gains some weight with air. By hour two, it’s hitting its stride. The finish is long and delicious. This is in a good place right now and will likely do so at least through 2025. — 4 days ago

Ripe strawberries on the nose and palate, a rich body with light tingly acid and lingering minerals. Just delicious. — 4 days ago

Viognier with mustard seeds (7 in bottle to be exact).

Couldn’t detect mustard in the wine, dont believe the negative reviews about the wine being unpleasant. Grey Poupon is made with Viognier, and this Viognier from Napa was made with mustard seeds (unsure if local or from Dijon). Fun.

Crisp Viognier, paired nicely with Chicken in Mustard Sauce. Geeky & tasty. Glad I jumped and scored the limited edition wine, which came with a bottle of Grey Poupon mustard and recipes for pairing. — a month ago

Good concentration with notes of lemon, pear, blossom, honeysuckle, wet stone and cinnamon. This off dry wine could age mich longer. — 6 days ago

1961 vintage. Gifted from a most excellent colleague, thanks, Bill! Very caramelized with pecan pie, brown sugar, vanilla, rum raisins, candied dried cherries. Good length. Akin to good Montilla-Moriles or medium sweet Madeira. — 14 days ago
