Search Wine Tasting Notes

For a better Search Result, use the Advanced Wine Search. Else, enter the wine name and the vintage if desired, or the region for tasting notes. If you don’t get the result you’re seeking, either we do not have tasting notes on the wine or for that exact year. To help your search results, broaden your search to just the wine name and check for spelling errors. You can sort your results by ratings, vintage or alphabetically.

Full bodied, richly textured and loaded up with all the ripe, sweet, blackberries, dark plums, licorice and oak it can handle, the wine offers a concentrated, mouthful of ripe, dark fruits in the finish. The wine was made from a blend of 88% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petit Verdot and 2% Cabernet Franc.

Really nice wine. Lushly textured, you find earth, smoke, licorice, blackberry, currant and underbrush on the nose. Full-bodied, round and loaded with sweet, dark red and black fruits, the wine is soft, round and polished on the palate. Popped and poured, I am not sure decanting will add much here, as it is so deciptively ready to drink today.

An explosive perfume stuffed with flowers, oak, chocoalte, licorice, vanilla, blackberry, black cherry and blueberry is found with little effort. Plush, round and rich, this concentrated, opulent wine ends with a long, rich mocha and ripe berry filled finish.
