Estela Armando Vineyard reviews:- 2008 Bonarda Estela Armando Vineyard:
89 Points, Wine Advocate, Robert Parker Jr (Aug 2009) Issue WA, #184
Is opaque purple-colored. Plums, blueberry, and floral notes lead to a sweetly-fruited, ripe, savory, easy-to-understand wine with no hard edges - 2007 Bonarda Estela Armando Vineyard:
89 Points, Wine Spectator (Oct 31st 2008)
A flashy style for Bonarda, delivering lots of mocha and fruitcake up front, followed by notes of plum sauce and licorice. There's nice weight on the finish - 2006 Bonarda Estela Armando Vineyard:

Paulucci Vineyard reviews:- 2008 Malbec Paulucci Vineyard:
88 Points, Wine Spectator (Nov 30, 2009)
Very flattering, with a lush core of blueberry, fig sauce and raspberry fruit that glides through the spice-tinged finish. This has a nice polished feel. Drink now. 15,000 cases made. –JM - 2008 Malbec Paulucci Vineyard:
88 Points, Wine Advocate (Aug 2009) Issue WA # 184
The 2008 Malbec Angel Paulucci Vineyard spent 12 months in 20% new French oak. It is a glass-coating opaque purple with a pleasing perfume of cedar, spice box, violets, and black cherry. - 2007 Malbec Paulucci Vineyard:
90 Points, Wine Spectator on line (Sep 12, 2008)
Juicy and ripe, with lots of fig, blackberry, mocha and currant paste notes that pump through the rich , fleshy finish. Solid acidity keeps it honest. - 2007 Malbec Paulucci Vineyard:

Pizzella Family Vineyard reviews:- 2008 Malbec Pizzella Vineyard:
90 Points, Wine Spectator (Nov 30th 2009) and Smart Buys
Ripe and polished, with lush layers of raspberry, blueberry and fig fruit that glide over alluring spice notes, with well-integrated grip. - 2008 Malbec Pizzella Vineyard:
89 Points, Wine Advocate (Aug 2009) Issue WA # 184
The 2008 Malbec Pizzella Family received the same elevage as the Paulucci bottling. More saturated in color, it also delivers a more complex aromatic array, riper fruit, and a lengthy, pure finish. - 2007 Malbec Pizzella Family:
91 Points, Wine Spectator (Nov 15th 2008)
Ripe and flashy, with a showy layer of mocha leading the way for spice cake, raspberry and boysenberry fruit flavors laid over a lush, creamy finish. - 2007 Malbec Pizzella Family:
89 Points, Wine Advocate (Dec 2008) Issue WA #180
Dark ruby-colored, it exhibits an attractive perfume of cedar, leather, cinnamon, pepper, and black cherry - 2006 Malbec Pizzella Vineyard:
90 Points, Wine Advocate (Dec 2007) Issue WA # 174 - 2004 Malbec Pizzella Vineyard:

Cocina Blend Reviews:- 2008 Cocina Blend:
90 Points, Wine Advocate (Aug 2009) Issue WA # 184
Purple-colored, bouquet of cinnamon, Dentyne gum, cigar box, violets, black cherry, and blueberry. - 2007 Cocina Blend:
89 Points, Wine Spectator (Oct 31st 2008)
Very up front, with mocha and fruitcake aromas leading the way for a creamy-textured palate of fig, melted licorice and dark plum fruit. The round finish lets the toast and fruit linger. - 2006 Cocina Blend:
89 Points, Wine Advocate, Robert Parker Jr. (Dec, 2007)
