Excellent CDP, bright fruit (raspberries/strawberries) on the nose, follows through on the palate, well balanced - only drawback is a slight wooden feel on the back end but easy to look past. Opened up wonderfully after a couple hours. JW big fan. Powerful enough to stand up to red meat despite being a Rhône — 8 months ago

In the JW lineup, this is now my entry point. I've always found the Red a little harsh (I enjoy everything neat), and maybe it's my advancing age, while I used to really like Black but now think it's too smokey. Palate evolution I guess...

Mellow peat, perfect barrel char, light honey, distant campfire smoke. Perfect just by itself and a cold whiskey stone. — 7 years ago

2012. Excellent Cabernet-based Super Tuscan, drinking perfectly now (in store bin for 3-4 years!). Starts out with reticent black and blue fruits (and pomegranate?) with a strong undercurrent of iron/minerals. After three hours the tannins smooth out to reveal just the right balance of fruit, leather, tar and earth. Rich and complex, tastes like a high-quality Bordeaux by later evening. One of the best wines I’ve had all year and a steal at $45 at JW. — 5 years ago

Drank 7/22/22

A generous gift from JW to commemorate the birth of my first daughter.

Blackberry, pencil lead, cassis on the nose. Some petrol notes are present but mostly blow off after an hour. Flavors of blackberry, raspberry, and blackberry liquer with a long finish. It's a bit hot, but a strong showing for the vintage.

Drink now or enjoy over the next 10 years.

2004 Le Macchiole Messorio Merlot. Lunch at Gucci w JW & AC. Decanted and served immediately. Should have decanted sooner. Took a while to open up. It was alright, but not as good as the bottled we’d had last week (‘90s vintage?) — 6 years ago

2002 Conterno Monfortino Barolo. LACMA group lunch. Surprisingly approachable. JW thought it was a great expression in a terrible year. We decanted this for 30 min, but should have decanted longer. — 8 years ago
