Stunning. I've tasted several good BV offerings over the years, but. - damn - this is really, really good. A deep red in the glass. Floral - violets, with anise, cassis, dark plum and spice. On the tongue this is hugely integrated and like the ZZ Top song - She got Legs!! The dark fruits are layered well with an earthy dampness and herbs. There a dark cherry sweetness at the back. The tannins a well rounded, sorta funneling the fruit to the acidity which gives us a lingering impressive aftertaste. Worth every penny of the $35 US it costs. Again - Stunning! Enjoy - Paul

She's got legs...she knows how to use them! A 94 from you is a 99 from me, so I'm guessing I might enjoy it... :)

Woah! ZZ Top now. Talk about Gnarly Old Heads! You surely liked this one though ...... good when extra money actually pays off. I have mailed using Adegga - but it's easy to miss.

Excelent review and we can start a good point from here: Varietals vs. Blends - which do you prefer? I have to say blends, but then again, it's a bit of a cultural thing around here.

You know generally speaking I'm a blend man. But there are varietals that need to speak to site. Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, Burgundy, Syrah, Mersault are some. Done well, there is no better representation of that specfic grape, when a vintner who knows the vineyard, lets the grape speak. However, Bordeaux blends (either Aussie or France), Meritage (US Bordeaux Blends), GSM's and Rhone blends (just really getting started stateside) are absolutely stunning when the winemaker understands the differences and blends their individual strengths to homonious wines.
