Beautiful Bordeaux blend expression of Walla Walla. Concentrated fruit that stays centered. Vibrant, intense yet nuanced dark fruit flavors carried by rounded tannins. — 5 days ago

A Cab Sauv from a carefully selected clone grown in Valle de Guadalupe, Baja California, Mexico. Hand carried back to Idaho! Magoni makes some very, very good wines. This is a great example. Rich, expressive and full bodied with earthy, sweet undernotes that make these wines connect so well with Mexican cuisine. Mexican wines are the new Tequila. Want to know more?

Ever since we had the 2005 Linda Flor Malbec, we were under its spell. But, as they say: in vino veritas - in wine, there is truth. The Linda Flor 2017 broke the spell. For us, it did not hold the promise for a potential repeat of the experience of the 2005. There was a green note on the finish and I don’t think the dark fruit underneath the tight but polished fine grained tannins seemed concentrated enough to break through the oak vice grip. Life, wine…. It’s a journey. — 2 months ago

This wine is in balance! Everything plays together so well. It’s a nice 10 year old wine, also the aged notes integrated so well with the vibrant red fruit coming from the Grenache. A little bit of Mouvedre and Syrah give it nice complexity. — a month ago

Focussed mineral laden wine. Single note, which suprised me for an eleven year old wine. — 2 months ago

Was planning on a 9.3 but then the pizza came and the wine became even more pronounced, intense, rich, penetrating dried red fruit, earthy and minerally laced. It is one of our most favorite Amarones. We had the opportunity to visit the winery last year.

Fantastic. Fresh red fruit aromas rise readily from the wine to be followed with an explosion in flavor. Fresh red berries and raspberries lifted by an earthy minerality slowly disappearing in a lingering finish. — 2 months ago

Very interesting Super Tuscan style wine made from Walla Walla grapes. Certainly more fruity, bold and juicier than the ones from Tuscany but it had a very nice layered complexity and well integrated oak flavors that added a distinct sweet vanilla flavor. — 3 months ago
