1 hour decant(some fine/cloudy sediment). A remarkable medium dark purplish garnet color. On the nose: addictive notes of blackberry, loamy earth, eucalyptus, floral, pencil shavings. Taste: creamy, rich mouthcoating wine with dark cherry, cedar, dried herbs, glycerin, and a medium plus tobacco/licorice finish. YUM! — a month ago

Bright. Fruity. The red wine blend of the label so drinks very smooth. — a year ago

#1000 at home, finally!

This is big, broad and bold. Hundred percent cab aged in seventy-five percent new French Oak. Limited production to just over two hundred cases.

Visibly the wine is a deep ruby color with a tight rim.

The nose is intense with dark fruit, cassis, coffee, dark chocolate, but also earthy humid forest aromas.

The mouthfeel is luxurious and enveloping with the perfectly ripe dark fruit, just a touch of dried spices, vanilla, oak, and a long savory earthy finish. The wine is dry, full bodied, ultra smooth with round but persistent tannings with medium plus alcohol and medium acidity.

Absolutely love wine… Cheers all! — 2 years ago

Had to try one of these bottles. As I figured, way too early to drink, this wine needs at least a couple more years. Highly structured, with tannins and acidity built to age, nevertheless the fruit is ripe and the wine is enjoyable now. Mostly red fruit with some darker fruit supplementing. Tannic structure is strong but it is still easy drinking now. I look forward to letting this sit and try again in a few years. — 7 months ago

A gift from a friend and my first taste of a "luxury branded wine designed to fit your lifestyle"(their marketing 😂)....I might not be their target customer since I live in a small bungalow home in Sacramento, but I'll give it the ole swirl/sniff/sip/spit anyways.

1 hour decant (lots of cloudy sediment). On the nose: very aromatic notes of black cherry, nutty vanilla, charcoal, cedar, floral. Taste: smooth, silky, rich teeth staining wine with blackberry pie, licorice, black currants, dark chocolate, pepper and a LONG dry finish.

Not feeling the luxury,  just a well made Napa cab like a couple hundred others out there. Cheers!

Tusk..."because there are those who regard luxury and those who live it"...sounds like a deodorant commercial tag line😆 🤣 — a year ago

Absolutely fantastic gamay from the WV, where the grape seems to be thriving in the hands of talented producers such as Hundred Suns. — 3 years ago

Time for second tasting of the vintage. Still showing great fruit, acidity. Lots of aging potential with a healthy skin tannin structure here. No other updates; I’m just going to enjoy all the cranberry, raspberry and mulberry goodness in this one. To mellow those tannins, decant at least two hours. — a year ago

Yep, all of that…vintage 2019, beyond nice Barbera D’ Asti…among the best of the offerings from notable Italian - Piedmont - producer…Marchesi Della Rocchetta, probably a measly few hundred years history as are many Italian producers. Previously rated highly, virtually unchanged from vintage to vintage, an excellent everyday vino for the Everyday Club. Balance, balance, full-flavor… — 2 years ago
