Bright on the tongue with round feel that quickly melts away. Soft bitter aftertaste that would not do well with sweet but would be great for salty pairings. This is a freestyle rumba on the beach at a strangers wedding. Thoroughly enjoyable party without all the stress of having to socialize. Party drink. — 9 years ago

I bought several bottles and opened this last one about 3 years later. Nice aromas of green and stone fruits with a citrus notes. The palate shows apple, peach and pear, still crisp with good balance, fresh and lively. The finish shows nutty earthy tones. I met with the distributor, Pasternak Wine Imports a while ago who indicated this wine can be enjoyed now, but put it down for a few years, the age will benefit the wine greatly, he was right! — 6 years ago
Delicious BDX. Rating affirmed 8/17/23. Kermit Lynch imports never disappoint. And the 15 vintage doesn’t either. Great value. — 7 years ago

Such a damn fine example what Muscat de petit grains dried in the sun can be. Made into the sweet (but not too sweet), spicy aromatic concoction that can be found in many countries. Miel? Yes but I get a lot of dried apricot equally. The residual sugar is IMHO perfectly balanced by the remaining acids. One of the best examples of desert Muscat I've had anywhere. Good cold but maybe even better at cool room temp.

Lovely soft redfruits, great balance and restraint, a blend of 15 Rhône varietals (including white grapes), great acidity, a very fine southern Rhône rouge from a good vintage!! (Disclosure: My brother imports this wine and I am friends with Rudi, the proprietor of Montfaucon.) — 6 years ago
What a nice surprise! Old world style garnacha, with tight tannins, white pepper, assorted spice (cardoman notes), and no excessive fruitiness. Really great value, the way Spanish wines used to be before the imports all became new world style fruit bombs. — 7 years ago
Very mello and flavorful. A little sweet, but that can be a nice break. — 7 years ago
Baron De Ley Finds Monasterio, Cosecha 2003, Rioja. Bought before 2013. Probably around $40. Waited too long to drink. Was still very rich, with strong tannins. The fruit flavors were still there. Way too much sediment. Had to decant through coffee filter. — 9 years ago
