While I was a wine club member at Bell, this wine was perhaps my favorite
each vintage, especially for the 2005 wines.
While always well balanced and delicious, this bottle seemed to bring
out the nicer red fruit flavors of the vintage that I enjoyed so much. At the time, I had so much Bell wine that I
was reluctant to buy more, but now I am wishing I had. This wine has aged gracefully, and while
occupying the space between rich and elegant, the wine retains its body and
balance and has softened to a palette-pleasing silkiness. The wine offers up delicious flavors of pomegranate,
cranberry, cherry, ripe tomato, and minerals.
Even after being left in the trunk for two days (in mild weather), the
leftovers were delicious.
