Bodegas Emilio Moro

Ribera del Duero Tempranillo 2017

John W
9.0

Very dark ruby coloration. On the nose, cherry, strawberry and toasted oak. On the palate, it mirrors the nose with the fruit, oak and some vanilla to round it out. Medium to fuller body and well balanced. Smooth tannins and a medium to shorter finish. A nice easy drinking wine at this price point of $25 at total wine. — 4 years ago

Château Léoville-Las Cases

Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1996

Bit more lightening on the rim , more garnet . Touch more herbal on the nose with cedar , and grafite, much more lean and mineral on the palate. This takes quite a while to find its feet and benefits from quite a lot of air . In some ways a little unfortunate to be served between the 2000 and 1990 , which are a fuller , and more showy in style . However after a while this does show quite good length and balance , refreshing acidity . This is quite lean and mineral , focused and still pretty young . From now over the next 10 years. A little austere in style , reminds me a little of the 2005 in that aspect , though without that vintage’s intensity or density . — 19 days ago

Giant Steps

Tarraford Vineyard Chardonnay 2016

Could not see that I have rated this vintage on Delectable before. No formal notes. I recall it being fuller and more textural than usual with a certain creaminess. A good blend of citrus and stone fruit with the right amount of French oak. — 3 years ago

Monterey County Pinot Noir 2013

2020 Christmas gift from neighbors. Rick and I both like it a lot. Fuller than most pinot noirs (good thing) but lighter than most cabs...closer to a blend. — 4 years ago

Marcassin

Marcassin Vineyard Pinot Noir 2004

2004 vintage. Decanted and tasted after an hour. This was fuller and more complex than any of the other < 2010 Marcassin (Marcassin Vyd) Pinots I’ve had lately. Big, staying power. 3.5.24. — 10 months ago

Buccella

Merlot 2013

Better on day 2 after forgetting to put the cork in overnight. Still opulent as a MF, but some of lush burns off and gets replaced by a decent amount of earth (for Buccella anyway). — 4 years ago
