this is a 2008. This has sat for so long it drinks like a Zin. Silky, rich flavor, woddy and jammy. mild oak aroma which i like, not overwhelming. — 8 years ago

Extremely solid wine, could have sat in bottle many more years. No one guessed it was Chilean and by far the best Cabernet from Chile I have ever had. Big blue and red fruits, cigar wrapper, graphite, yum yum 😋 — 2 years ago

I mean... it's huge. I even gave it a days worth of air. Probably could have sat on this longer. — 7 years ago

Very delicious and unique mezcal. Agave Dobadán is vegetal, just the right amount of smoke, and lingering. A mystical and special bottle! — 8 years ago

Not very fruit forward, and dry - which I like with Syrahs. I really enjoyed this wine and the way it sat on my pallet. We’re exploring Syrahs and will add this to our rotation. — 4 years ago

Sat on this for awhile. Drank it with a venison lion roast (wrapped in bacon) in December 2018. In short, it was excellent. Strawberry, cherry, coffee and a delightfully long finish. Wish we had more! — 6 years ago

This is the real thing! And priced to compete, too, unusually for CA. Move over, Austria! With halibut on Sat. night. — 9 years ago
