Full-bodied, dense, and rich with silky tannins and abundant fruit and glycerin, this beauty should evolve easily for a decade or more.

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts RP r <b>Tasting Notes -Parker :</b>The 2005 Finca Sandoval is 76% Syrah, 13% Mourvedre, and 11% Bobal fermented with native yeasts followed by malolactic fermentation in barrel with lees stirring, followed by aging from 11-13 months in French and American oak, a mix of new and seasoned 225 and 300-liter barrels. Purple-colored, the wine offers up an alluring nose of toasty oak, mineral, floral notes, blueberry, and blackberry. This leads to a full-bodied, ripe, layered wine with superb integration of oak, tannin, and acidity. There is enough structure to support 3-5 years of evolution in the cellar. This outstanding effort should be at its best between 2012 and 2025.<p><b>Tasting Notes -Tanzer : </b> Inky purple. Sharply focused raspberry and blackberry scents are complemented by fresh flowers, licorice and graphite. Crisp and poised, offering intense, finely focused red and dark fruit flavors, and impressively silky texture and fully absorbed tannins. Fresh and energetic on the long, spicy finish. I suspect that this extremely impressive, syrah-based wine will put on weight and gain sweetness with a couple years of aging. 93 Pts ST <b>Tasting Notes -Parker :</b>The 2005 Finca Sandoval is 76% Syrah, 13% Mourvedre, and 11% Bobal fermented with native yeasts followed by malolactic fermentation in barrel with lees stirring, followed by aging from 11-13 months in French and American oak, a mix of new and seasoned 225 and 300-liter barrels.

The wine went through malolactic fermentation in 500-liter French oak after which it spent 20 months in barrique. Opaque purple-colored, the wine offers up a sexy nose of herbs, sage, crushed stone, black cherry, and blackberry liqueur which comes blasting from the glass.

It was barrel-fermented and aged for 21 months in new French oak before being bottled unfined and unfiltered. Its physiognomy and personality are very similar to the 2005 Cyclo. Opaque-purple colored, it reveals a fragrant nose of toasty new oak, pencil lead, floral notes, blueberry, and blackberry. This is followed by a plush, ripe, full-flavored wine with excellent depth and breadth. There is enough well-hidden tannin to support another 5-7 years of cellaring. It should approach its peak by 2015 and drink well through 2030.

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts RP r The 4,400-case cuvee of 2006 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (96% Cabernet Sauvignon and the rest Merlot and Cabernet Franc) is brilliant. It would probably be hard to find a Cabernet Sauvignon of this quality with this production level, all estate fruit, and such impeccable viticulture and winemaking. This wine reminded me of a great vintage of Pontet Canet in Pauillac, Bordeaux. The deep creme de cassis flavors intermixed with charcoal and lead pencil shavings soar from the glass. Its full body, stunning ripeness, sweet tannin, and substantial flavor authority make for a brilliant Cabernet Sauvignon to drink over the next two decades. (Parker-94pts)

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts Wine Spectator <b>Tasting Notes :</b>Foradori’s 2004 Granato is a wine of extraordinary personality. Constantly changing in the glass, it offers a kaleidoscope of smoke, tar, graphite, earthiness, roasted coffee beans and sweet dark fruit sensations. It is gorgeously ample and long on the palate, with superb depth as well as freshness. This is an awesome effort from Elisabetta Foradori.

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts RP r <b>PRE-SELL - MARCH</b><br><b>Tasting Notes:</b> Composed of 96% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot, and 1% Cabernet Franc, the 2007 Cabernet Sauvignon Estate (nearly 4,000 cases produced) is a great buy for a world-class Napa Cabernet Sauvignon. It exhibits a dense purple color, notes of charcoal, creme de cassis, graphite, and forest floor, and a ripe, opulently fruity, rich, full-bodied style. Its endearing silkiness, multi-dimensions, and mature, sweet tannins suggest it has two decades of life ahead of it.

The wine possesses superb density  and explosive, utterly irresistible personality. At roughly one-third the price of its big sibling Ornellaia, the 2006 Le Serre Nuove is a must-purchase wine.

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts RP r <b>Tasting Notes :</b>Bodegas Alion was launched with the 1991 vintage. The wine is made by Javier Ausas, winemaker at Vega Sicilia, from a single grape variety: Tempranillo. The style and philosophy is entirely different to the long ageing at Vega Sicilia, with the release of a young, three-year-old wine that has been matured almost entirely in new French oak from Nevers. “The 2005 Alion has a captivating perfume of smoke, pencil lead, violets, truffle, cherry, and blackberry.  On the palate it is medium to full-bodied, firm, sweetly-fruited, layered, and splendidly balanced.  It has several years of aging potential and will offer prime drinking from 2013 to 2025.”

Red Wine Hand-Picked 94 Pts RP r <b>Tasting Notes :</b>One of the Finest Amarone I have ever tasted. Massive, Rich, Opulent and Loaded. 94 Pts Parker Same score as Dalforno which lists at $575 a bttl. “Brigaldara’s 2004 Amarone della Valpolicella Case Vecie is a very serious wine. It reveals a richer and riper personality than the Amarone, with superb volume in its dark blueberries, blackberries, spices and herbs. The full-bodied expression of fruit hides considerable structure that lurks beneath. Lingering notes of sweetness round out the long finish. Although the 2004 shows more clarity and precision than the 2003, I would have a hard time choosing between them. This is high-class Amarone all the way. Anticipated maturity: 2009-2016. I was very impressed with the wines I tasted from Brigaldara. The Amarone is aged in cask and is made in a fairly approachable style, while the single-vineyard Amarone Case Vecie is a richer wine that also sees some French oak. Both wines are well worth seeking out.
