“Focusing on Marsanne, the Krupp Brothers have here created a solid partner to the (Black Bart's Bride). It is not exactly a "masculine" wine by any stretch of the imagination or traditional use of the term given its floral aromas and deeply fruity, blossomy pieces, and its alcohol and weight on the palate are eclipsed by the Bride, but since both are deep and dramatic, the differences are less of gender than  of  perception.”

“43%  Marsanne; 37% Viognier; 20% Chardonnay. Full marks to this innovative blending of Rhone and Burgundian whites. It has great depth and enormous richness to its floral, slightly tropical yet deep and round aromas, and that simply adds up to the fine and fun experience of smelling the wine and knowing that it has delivered brilliance. It is full and fleshy on the palate, has enough acidity to stay in balance and makes us want to grill up a side of line-caught salmon that has been briefly cured with salt and sugar before seeing the flames.”

"A wine with grace and finesse, complex but sleekly structured, with aromas of black cherry and mocha oak and flavors of red currant, tomato leaf and dried brown spices. Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot. Drink now through 2016."—T.F.

CELLAR SELECTION

"This is Krupp’s best wine. Made of an unusual blend of Merlot, Malbec and Petit Verdot, it’s a classically young Napa Bordeaux blend in need of time in the cellar. Shows tannic flavors of blackberries, currants and cola, with a bone-dry, spicy finish. Hold this rich, vital wine until 2012, and it should provide good drinking for at least six additional years, with good storage." - S.H.
