Love this one — 11 days ago
2018 Far Niente Cabernet. Love this vineyard and their signature cab is outstanding! Very nice bouquet, rich with dark fruits, blackberry, plum and light earth notes. Thick long lasting legs. Very smooth on the palette. Rich ripe fruit at the start with blackberry. Finish is smooth with light berry notes. Very low tannins. Love it! Paired well with a big Italian meal with lasagna and sausage. — 18 days ago
Best, deep red, not too fruity, but could get deeper. Very close to what I normally want for deep red quote out being bitter or to sweet. — 3 months ago
Real pleasure. Started out surprisingly soft and elegant and about 1 hour in it just jumped the river and became a true grippy left bank Bordeaux. I had to check our claim that Vilafonté Bordeaux series m and c can stand shoulder to shoulder with the big rollers of Bordeaux. They sure do! Try for yourself and experience a wine from an ancient soil. You will not be disappointed. www.spokenwines.com. — 4 months ago

Nice color. No real sediment, just a touch cloudy on the last pour. Let this aerate in my glass for 4 hours before drinking
👃Red fruit but especially pretty with roses, dried fruit, tea, tar, and menthol. Just beautiful
👅Red cherry and blue fruit, tar, earth, mushroom, tea and herbs. Some tannic grip remains but this is silky. The finish is quite long with a touch of acidic bitterness. A bit of volatile acidity in the form of acetone, but not really distracting. Medium body. Composed and elegant.
Such a treat to share this legend with great friends. Sorry Vinloq, there was nothing to save as this was happily emptied🍷🍷 — 3 months ago

2022 vintage. Medium-heavy body. Juicy but avoids fruit bomb status with a hint of tannins. 3.27.24. — 22 days ago
