2005 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon (750ml)

International Wine Cellar Review

"Saturated deep ruby. Brooding, backward nose hints at deep black plum, cassis, graphite and nutty, spicy oak. Fat, sweet and superconcentrated, with an almost citric suggestion of acidity and chewy dry extract contributing to the impression of structure. Wonderfully bright for such a ripe wine, and explosively long on the aftertaste. Along with its considerably power, this promises to deliver great class in an almost Medoc-like way."
Score: 94-97

2006 Mordoree Chateauneuf du Pape Rouge Reine des Bois (750ml)

"Inky purple. Explosively aromatic, captivating bouquet of raspberry, cherry, mocha and Asian spices. Very sexy wine, with deep, sweet red and dark fruit preserve flavors, silky tannins, outstanding palate coverage and lingering spiciness."

- International Wine Cellar (Jan 2008), 93-95 pts


"Since 1996, their Chateauneuf du Pape Cuvee de la Reine des Bois has been one of the stars of the vintage. The blue/purple-hued 2006 exhibits aromas of charcoal, creme de cassis, roasted herbs, meat juices, licorice, and camphor. Full-bodied, dense, and concentrated with sweet tannin, adequate acidity, and a stunningly long finish (40+ seconds), this beauty is one of the vintage’s most complete and concentrated wines. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2023."

- Wine Advocate (#173, Oct. 2007), 92-95 pts

"Glowing blackish purple. Very hedonistic – ripe purple fruits, supple black cherries – a sort of ‘American cuvée’? Lots of pleasure here – smooth texture but no sacrifice e of local character. Well done! Neat tannins on the finish as well as a bit of alcohol but no shortage of fruit in the middle. Supple – much more supple than the average Châteauneuf. Traditionalists beware though… Apparently ageing was variously in barrique, foudre and cuve." 18 Drink 2014-25

2004 Finca Sobreno Crianza Toro (750ml)

This Crianza is made from 100% Tinta de Toro (Tempranillo) grapes grown on some 50 hectares of vineyards (average age of 30 years) purchased specifically for the Sobreño project. The vines are planted at a very low density (900 plants/hectare), with reduced production levels in the range of 4,000 kilos/hectare. Grapes are hand picked, fermented in stainless steel tanks and aged for a total of 7 months in American oak barrels. "The 2004 Crianza has considerably more to offer. It is a saturated purple in color, with lots of smoke, lead pencil, and cedar on the nose. On the palate, it is full-flavored, layered, and long. It will benefit from 1-3 years of cellaring and drink well for a decade. It is an outstanding value. Drink 2008-2017."

2006 Tres Ojos Old Vine Garnacha Tinto Calatayud (750ml)

"Tres Ojos is produced at the Bodega San Gregorio, a cooperative located in the Ribota River Valley. It is named for the three arches of a local viaduct in the valley which is the origin of the 92 percent Garnacha (40+ years old) and 8 percent Tempranillo in this wine. Medium dark ruby color, the Old Vines Garnacha Tinto is aged 12 months in large steel vats. It has a rich, fruity nose of red plums and spice and reveals ripe tannins and dark plum fruit on the soft, nicely textured palate. A well-balanced wine with a long finish, and a truly excellent buy."
