Castelli Family Vineyards

Estate Romana Valley Cabernet Franc 2015

Dark ruby in color with a reddish brick rim.

Dry and fruity on the palate with medium acidity, and a strong fruity nose.

Showing black plums, stewed cherries, blueberry pie, chocolates, prunes, mocha, coffee, sweet cedar, cola, vanilla, licorice, tobacco leaf, Mediterranean spices and peppercorn.

Spicy finish with soft tannins and tangy raspberries.

This is a very tasty Cabernet Franc. Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle. Drinks like a Napa Merlot right now.

Showing nice complexity now, but
will not last long, so drink up.

Aged in French oak barrels for 27 months. A tiny production of only 3 barrels.

13.4% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$52 (current vintage).

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 1961

Taken to Hawksmoor in NYC for our uncle’s 75th. Decanted in hotel for 7 hrs before dinner. Dark reddish amber edges with dark tawny color center. Opaque. Great aged Bordeaux nose. Notes of black fruit, tobacco and cigar, cassis, old desk wood, saddle leather, some anise, some barnyard and a little mint. Rich and silky in the mouth. Long finish. The bottle (mid shoulder) wasn’t in as good of condition as the one we had a few weeks ago, but the outcome was similar. Family and the Somm all loved it, as did I. — 3 years ago
