Burghound, 93 points: (BH90-93 points) This is also elegant, pure and broadly aromatic with hints of earth, underbrush and a touch of the sauvage adding nuance to the red currant and violet notes that introduce rich and rather serious...
Vinous, 91 points: Bright ruby. Sappy and tightly focused raspberry and cherry aromas are complemented by notes of cinnamon and allspice. Sweet and penetrating on the palate, which offers sexy red berry preserve and floral flavors, with a...
Burghound, 91 points: Mild wood mixes with the spicy red currant, rose petal and earth aromas that slide gracefully into the very rich and full-bodied flavors that are tautly muscular and possess impressive volume while culminating in a...
jamessuckling.com, 97 points: This has a wonderful balance to it. It shows intense aromas of flowers and dark fruits with hints of incense and sandalwood. Changes all the time. Then goes to currants and flowers. Full and firm with a wonderful core of...
Decanter, 96 points: Another hit, although this is not as glamorous as some vintages of Mouton. The expression here is just a little more Pauillac, rather than Mouton. Layers of blackberry and grilled almonds are marked by a touch of...
Vinous, 90 points: The 2008 Pensées de Lafleur has a well-defined, smoke and truffle-tinged bouquet that is pretty and elegant, a wine that has clearly opened up in the last couple of years. The palate is medium-bodied with fine grain...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 90 points: The 2008 Kingpin Cabernet Sauvignon (which contains 10% Petit Verdot) was sourced from the Klipsun and Kiona Vineyards located in the Red Mountain AVA and was aged in 89% new French oak. Deep purple in color, it sports an...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 96 points: I tasted bottle 562 of only 999 made. The 2008 Montefalco Sagrantino Spinning Beauty is one of the most complete and ambitious expressions of the Sagrantino grape I have yet to taste. Paying homage to the Caprai family...
Wine Spectator, 96 points: Dark and dense, but not heavy, offering a remarkable sense of freshness to its ripe cherry, raspberry, blackberry, tea leaf, dark chocolate and smoke flavors, which compete for attention and finish with astonishing depth...
Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 95 points: This wine was first produced in 1983, and production remains unbroken because no vintage was ever skipped. The 2008 Cabernet Alzero is 80% Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc with 20% Merlot. These are the first grapes...
Wine Spectator, 90 points: Juicy, with kirsch, raspberry and linzer torte notes that pump along nicely, with velvety tannins and a spice box? and black tea?loaded finish. Delicious. Drink now through 2015. 700 cases made. –JM
Vinous, 91 points: 91+ Deep, bright ruby. Open-knit aromas of sexy oak, black raspberry, cinnamon and mint oil. Intensely flavored, savory and dry, with exotic spicy lift to the dark fruit and root beer flavors. This began with a very ripe...
Vinous, 98 points: (98 points) The 2008 Amarone della Valpolicella is compelling. With a little air, the tannins begin to soften, releasing a myriad of intense dark aromas and flavors. Bittersweet chocolate, cloves, violets, plums and...

I had such a great experience here, and so appreciate the professional, courteous, and personal support offered by Noah Hart that this is my new go-to for wine orders. This model offers the same level of care you receive when you join a wine club, but without limiting you to the wines made by that particular vineyard.
