w Margo, super easy drink, not too sweet, perfect chilled — a year ago
Heavier and less peppery than the Margo. Better overall structure and beautiful red fruit. Yummy. Just different from delicate Margo. — 7 years ago
A beautiful Pinot with a nice finish. Great with food or on its own. April 2024. — 9 months ago

One of my favorite things to do when I go into K&L is to look through their library wines. From time to time, I look down and smile when I see 10-15 year old Cing Cepages. Especially, at the price they are re-sold. One the best values in Sonoma/Napa Cabernet. This 05 followed the 05 Alban Reva and it was drinking perfectly. Soft, luxurious and elegant in the mouth. Beautifully ripe; black plum, blackberries, plum, dark cherries & black raspberries. Well balanced fruit and earth, nice baking spices, excellent florals, round acidity and well polished finish. For those of you drinking your new big red wines too young, this is they way to go. Buy library wines like these to keep you from opening your very high priced red wines long before they're ready to drink. Good library wines will drink much better and cost you so much less than your new big red wine releases. For example, I find these older Cing Cepages for around $35. The lowest price for their 2013 vintage on Wine Searcher is $59. For less $$$, you're drinking beautifully elegant and READY wine. For every new producers new release you buy, buy some nice library wines. You'll reap the benefits of patience down the road.

Love this Rose, perfect balance of light fruit and dryness, not sweet. Great drinking in summer weather. Drank with Susie and Margo after Susie's 60th lunch at DeGidios. — 7 years ago
