This is a purely subjective and personal observation, but I find wines over 15%, like most of the Turley Zins are, tiring to drink. Ridge keeps theirs under 15 and I find them more exciting and balanced.

@Tom Casagrande generally agreed. I actually think Mathiasson’s zins are also great - and some are under 13% and yet still not unripe

Rustic old school styled Bordeaux with black fruits, cedar, leather, earth, graphite & cigar box. A wine I have had many times that is just hitting its prime with many years ahead — 13 days ago

An incredibly good Malbec. The color, the aroma, the consistency and the way it compliments food… I am impressed. Now I have to get some more Diseno. — 14 hours ago

One of my all-time favorites. Explosive on the tongue, fruit forward. A lingering aftertaste — a month ago

Okay. Again the same dilemma. If a wine does not meet expectation is it basically bad (for me)? 🤔 because in life everything is relative, right? Any thoughts on puzzling matter??The wine was well balanced, dark red fruit flavors, polished, smooth tannins, good intensity and concentration, but limited length and lacking any meaningful complexity… Eight year old left bank Bordeaux. A fourth or fifth growth winery, maybe not, can’t remember for sure. Do remember what I paid though, $120. Definitely too much for what we experienced this evening…. as to our expectations. — 12 days ago

@Jan de Weerd from reviews not personal experience. Most let this wine age twenty plus years?

Revisiting the Daou flagship. ‘20 vintage. Very mellow tannins. Smooth and silky with concentrated fruit. Dense, and long finish. Delicious. B55 treat. — a month ago
