The 2014 Col Solare is an utterly compelling wine in this vintage. This intense, massive and brooding deep-hued wine is a majestic effort by the winemaking team of lead by Darel Allwine and assistant winemaker Will Wiles at Col Solare. Dense, firm and masculine, this profound wine awakens with aromatics of black tea, sandalwood, black cherries, crème de cassis and Turkish coffee. On the palate there are decadent flavors of black tea, black olive, mocha, allspice and suggestions of dark chocolate shavings. Polished, smooth and absolutely scintillating, this is another stunner from Col Solare. (Best 2018-2035) - March, 2017 (OB)
