Gods country. Water to wine! — 2 years ago
Very dense in colour - impenetrable. It threw a large crust when decanting. On the nose coffee grounds and savoury black cherry, black plum. Sweetish on the full bodied concentrated palate. The savoury plum comes through with rich earthy flavours. Finishing with grainy tannins. Tempranillo seems perfectly suited to the warm dry conditions of Rioja. I couldn’t imagine Tempranillo showing its best in a cool to cold climate. I guess it does exist but it does seem best suited to warm climates. I just finished an interesting article on what grape varietal lasts the longest. From many tastings over many years Jancis concluded it was Tempranillo over Bordeaux with some old Vega Sicilias seemingly timeless. — 3 years ago

Oh, how I miss Terry Theise!
Classic Kabinett balance here, with plenty of fresh fruit sweetness.
Medium yellow.
Nose of pineapple, orchard fruits, touch of honeyed richness.
Palate medium+ sweetness with balancing acids. This feels nearly timeless and not very mature yet. — 3 years ago
Certain wines you come back to because they are timeless. This 1983 Cabernet is simply elegant. Aged where the fruit has died yet its complexity is still battling it out with the remnants of fruit and vegetal quality evokes an aged and glorious wine. — 4 years ago
