The majestic 2016 Las Cases is one for the ages. This ultra complex and ultra appealing wine is already captivating and will very obviously have many decades to shine. You get currants, blackberries, salmiak, violets, tobacco, rosemary, pink pepper, soil and so much more. The texture gradually becomes creamier with fine tannins and fresh and long finish. Will become a perfect wine eventually. — 3 months ago

2 hour decant(decent fine/chunky sediment). A majestic purplish dark magenta color. On the nose: bursting from the glass are notes of red and black fruit, charred wood, milk chocolate, some mint, touch of cigar box. Taste: smooth, delicate, elegant wine with red berries/plum, leather, gravel, herbaceous, mocha, and a spiced tobacco medium plus finish. YUM! Drinks well with the decant, but no hurry, time to go. — a year ago

See several previous notes. My last of these Cuvées from Kangaroo Island South Australia and owned by the French Lurton family of Cheval Blanc fame. Savoury plum with earthy overtones. With air the aromas were almost intoxicating. Quite bold and full bodied on the palate - oak has integrated. Rich and spicy yet cleansing and moreish. Touch of camphor finishing with fine sandy tannins. — 2 years ago

Along with the majestic 2010 one of my favorite Stella vintages. So giving right off the bat, never any heat even in this warm vintage, just so fresh and clean wafting stunning perfumed aromatics with an elegant, detailed and voluminous palate. Always an amazing expression of Sangiovese. — 4 months ago

1.5 hour decant(some chunky/fine sediment). A majestic dark garnet color. On the nose: black fruit, cinnamon, licorice, soil, spice and vanilla. Taste: soft, restrained and delicate wine with brambly plum, pepper, pencil lead, oak, cedar, coffee and a medium plus dry finish. YUM! — 9 months ago

Porta 6 is a mass produced Portuguese blended rws wine that is inexpensive but always gives good value on taste and quality.

The grapes are 50% Aragonez, 40% Castelão and 10% Touriga Naciona and this gives it balanced body with good colour and a jammy, dark and red fruit taste.

£7.99 from Majestic. — 2 years ago

Majestic. Drunk watching rugby and eating ribeye steak. Good pairing. Nothing super special but a good and well drinkable red. Enjoyed it. — 6 months ago
