Truncated cookout notes. Very Graves like nose with lots of cigar box notes along with rich gravelly scents, and some nice plummy fruit. Not quite as deep on the palate as the nose would suggest (it’s a ‘14) but nice acidity. Finishing a tad short. — 2 months ago

Decanted for several hours, great with food but tannins still very dry without. I’d give it a lot more time to mellow. — 3 years ago

2004 is drinking beautifully now. Great Italian cab. Rampolla is one of the best producers. Highly recommend — 8 years ago

Too young but insane potential...going to buy more. Love this wine and its depth and complexity. Paired well with venison. — 10 months ago

@Delectable this is the Donna Liu. First vintage of Rampolla’s 100% merlot. Hints of a Pomerol but more fruit forward embedded with some cassis hints. Good tannic backbone which proves the best is yet to come. Castello dei Rampolla rocks! — 5 years ago

Presented as an ‘orange’ wine it has some oxidative character but not too much… hint of petroleum and really well balanced. Blend of trebbiano, chard, traminer, Malvasia, and SB. Biodynamic. I like! — 3 years ago

Raised in ‘cocciopesto’ which is an amphora kind of barrel based on clay and lime. Very fruit forward, soft tannins. Way better than I expected. Good job!
