| heavy, almost too heavy. need a piece of meat with this. wrong to drink alone on a saturday night. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| enjoyed this claret a bunch. curious to know what grapes were in it, i could pick up some cab franc, but not sure what else. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| pleasant drinking wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| sipped this wine while sitting near a river at the foot of the blue ridge mountains. how could it not be good? | ||||||||
|
|
|
||||||
| very disappointing. no redeeming qualities. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| taste and nose reminded me slightly of a chambourcin - not what i expected from the cab franc. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| first blush i've enjoyed - especially enough to buy! - in a long time. quite a pleasant summer-evening-out-o n-the-porch wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Perhaps I dont drink enough Cali wines. Perhaps I dont drink enough Cab Savs. Either way, I dont think I have enough frame of reference to judge this wine fairly. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Odd that they've already released this red. Apparently it didnt need the year to ferment? One of few 100% Norton wines. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Like a Danish Glogg, good served chilled but better hot. Perfect for the holidays. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Too sweet for me, but would probably enjoy a small glass after dinner with a dark chocolate dessert | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| They referred to it as a spicy wine, but I only picked it up on my second taste, near the end. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Best after 2010. Only got a glass at a tasting. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| actually 10% Merlot. check out what Napa critics have to say: http://www.barboursv illewine.com/welcome _news.html | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| very big taste and finish. best paired with meats/olives. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| a big nose with a taste that couldn't follow up. interestingly this winery's bottles are smaller and fatter than typical 750ml bottles. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| developed a buttery taste after sitting out on the table for about 30 min. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| a lot more bite than i expected for a merlot. but i wouldnt rush out to buy this again. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Maria pointed it out, that this year's Cab Franc seems watered-down compared to the one we tasted last summer. Yet this Cab Franc still outshone the two others on the table, still a very solid wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| after comparing to the Jefferson and Tarara Cab Francs, this one paled in comparison. A very weak cab franc. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| a solid cab. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| not much to it, didnt enjoy the taste. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| besides the nose, i really enjoyed this wine. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Simple and light. Could be agood or bad thing, depending on my mood. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| very minimal tannins for a cab sav. smooth. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| The best $5 wine I've ever had. Apparently this "pizza and wine" shop had it overstocked, hence the deal. Not bad! | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| Very soft yet tasty. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| nothing particularly outstanding, but a good, drinkable wine. i enjoyed it. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| potentially my first french red wine, so i dont know what to compare it to. | ||||||||
|
|
|
|
||||||
| i think i'm just used to lower quality cabs, and that's why i felt this one was so heavy. | ||||||||
