Product Description
RP99+ "The 2012 Thorevilos is flamboyant, phenomenally concentrated, full-bodied, majestic and totally prodigious. It can be drunk young, but most readers will probably prefer to give it a few years of bottle age and consume it over the following 30+ years." RP Oct 2015
"As I wrote last year, the work that the famous viticulturist and wine producer David Abreu does, along with his assistant Brad Grimes, is at the top of the qualitative hierarchy in California, if not the entire world. His four vineyards produce ravishing wines of great richness, complexity and aging potential. Even in vintages where others might stumble, such as 2011, somehow Abreu’s magic in the vineyard translates into wines of fabulous intensity and compelling quality in the bottle. Obviously, great vintages such as 2010, 2012 and 2013 offer potentially profound drinking experiences. None of this comes cheap, nor are these wines easy to access as virtually everything is sold via a mailing list and to a handful of the nation’s finest restaurants. In any event, tasting with Abreu and Grimes was one of the highlights of my recent trip to Napa." RP Oct 2015
