The Hess Collection Lion Tamer

Napa Valley Red Wine
2014 / 750 ml.

Item #: 44084

RP9393 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Dec 2016
Another fascinating wine that symbolizes the new level of quality as well as innovation and creativeness at Hess Collection is the 2014 Proprietary Red The Lion Tamer, a red blend, which is 55% Malbec, 15% Zinfandel, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petite Sirah and 8% Merlot. It comes from vineyards throughout Napa and is a delicious, Mediterranean style of wine, with notes of forest floor, underbrush, lavender, loads of black cherry and blackcurrant, a nice, spicy meatiness and a medium to full-bodied finish. Drink it over the next 5–6 years
WE9090 pts. - Wine Enthusiast - 3/1/2017
A new offering from this producer, this wine blends 55% Malbec with 15% Zinfandel, 12% Cabernet Sauvignon, 10% Petite Sirah and 8% Merlot. It satisfies in rich, rounded flavors of blueberry pie, cranberry and clove, with an underlying streak of dark chocolate. Medium acidity supports an appealing full-bodied juiciness.
SP8888 pts. - Wine Spectator - Web only – 2017
Wins points for finesse and polish, with a sleek, supple mix of savory berry, roasted herb and cedary oak notes, and ending with woody, gripping tannins. Needs time. Malbec, Zinfandel, Cabernet Sauvignon, Petite Sirah and Merlot. Drink now through 2027. 2,729 cases made.

Domaine Cabirau Serge & Nicolas Maury Sec

2012 / 750 ml.

Item #: 37535

RP91+91–93 pts. - Robert Parker’s The Wine Advocate - 30th Apr 2014
Moving to the Serge & Nicolas cuvee, this cuvee is mostly Grenache (from 60-year-old vines and brought up all in tank), with smaller components of Syrah and Carignan (which are brought up in 500-liter demi-muids). Looking first at the 2012 Maury Sec Serge & Nicolas, it exhibits an inky purple color to go with decadently styled notes of cassis, black raspberry, spice box, licorice and ground herbs. Medium to full-bodied, layered and concentrated, with a fabulous texture, it should have 5–7 years of longevity.

Bodega Numanthia Termes

2019 / 750 ml.

Item #: 16685

JS9393 pts. - JamesSuckling.com - Friday, September 9, 2022
Blackberries, crushed stones and pressed flowers on the nose. Very perfumed. Medium-bodied with firm, lightly chewy tannins and a light dark-chocolate, bark and fresh-mushroom aftertaste. Vivid fruit. Crunchy. Fresh for such a hot year and so drinkable now. (James Suckling)
SP9191 pts. - Wine Spectator - Oct 15, 2022
Rich and minerally on the nose, showing earth and iron notes that serve as accents to the ripe black plum and cassis fruit on the palate, with hints of eucalyptus and cocoa. A bold red, with fine, dense tannins tightly meshed to the detailed flavor range and lively balsamic acidity. Best from 2024 through 2029. 10,000 cases made, 8,000 cases imported. (Alison Napjus)
