Time to review this wine from the famous QANTAS 100 year celebration Doz. and from the Great 2018 year in Margaret River WA Aust. On opening we have deep Black opaque core in colour with a deep ruby rim at July 2021. great and as expected. Again on opening we have lovely rich ripe complexity of Bordeaux fruit flavours of Black fruits, Tobacco , typical of Cab/Merlot blends with that great complexity and nice oak handling all in balance for a commercial blend wine. excellent and as expected. On the palate we have nice sweet fruit upfront , medium bodied mid palate richness and sweet long oily tannins giving nice length . not too big and nice oak handling at this price point. Really nice drinking to my palate but will only improve over the next year or so but not too long , the wine is great drinking now for certain. QPR $22 - $25 and perfect with rare filet beef .

Alcohol: 14.5%

Natalie's Score: 93/100

Voyager, The Modern 2018 Cabernet Sauvignon has a dollop of Merlot added to the mix to nicely round it out. The wine is dry, full-bodied and expressive with dark plum, black currant, dried tobacco leaf, black olive, savoury herbs and subtle oak spice with a kiss of chalky minerality on the palate. Very nicely done. Drink or hold.

Cabernet Sauvignon food pairings: gourmet burgers from the grill, roast turkey, pork tenderloin.

This region produces some of the best cabernet sauvignon and red blends you'll find anywhere., mike desimone and jeff jenssen, mike desimone and jeff jenssen's most recent stories, the argentine winery believes it’s worthy of grand cru status—and it’s using science to prove it, one of natural wine’s biggest advocates isn’t into natural wine anymore—here’s why, the 9 best german rieslings to buy right now.

Named for forests of towering oaks that have mostly been replaced by vineyards, Napa Valley’s Oakville—both a town and an AVA—is home to some of the world’s finest Cabernet Sauvignon . One of its most high-profile vineyards is To Kalon , which means “the highest beauty” in Greek. Originally owned and planted by Napa pioneer H.W. Crabb, it is now farmed by a variety of owners including Robert Mondavi winery’s parent company Constellation Brands, University of California Davis, and Beckstoffer Vineyards, which sells its prized fruit to several wineries. Producing some of the most coveted Cabernet Sauvignon in the world, Oakville has come a long way since its origins as a water stop for steam trains in the 1860s.

Two miles wide, Oakville was granted American Viticultural Area status in 1993. More than 70 vintners and growers cultivate grapes on its 5,000 acres of vines, which produce some of the foremost Cabernet Sauvignon and red blends in existence. California’s first “vineyard designate” wine, Heitz Cellars 1966 Martha’s Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon, is from Oakville, and the first perfect score for a wine from California was awarded to another product of Oakville, Groth Vineyards & Winery 1985 Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve.

Elevations rise to 1,000 feet in the Vaca Range on the east side of the AVA, where grapes receive sun late in the day, while afternoon shade is one of the benefits to vineyards planted in the Mayacamas Mountains on the west side, which ascend to a less extreme 500 feet. Meanwhile, at the flat center of the region, valley floor fruit is the recipient of generous sunlight and a steady cycle of morning fog and cool breezes from San Pablo Bay and constant flow of warmer air from San Joaquin Valley to the east. A vast array of flavor and tannin profiles for the Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc grown here is derived from widely differing soils including alluvial, sedimentary, and volcanic. Here are some of the finest wines from Napa Valley’s true center, Oakville.

The Debate 2018 Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Franc Oakville Napa Valley California

Wine lovers and collectors know the famous Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard on Oakville’s valley floor. Each year the Debate team makes a pair of standout wines, but we decided to highlight their excellent 2018 Cabernet Franc because of the ethereal bouquet of aromas of crushed violet petals, lavender, cedar, and tobacco leaf. Made from 100 percent Cabernet Franc it is aged for almost two years in 80 percent new French oak. It’s inky purple in the glass and is smooth on entry into the mid palate with flavors of black licorice, blueberry, candied cherry, and mocha. The tannins are fine and silky, and the finish goes on and on. Drink now through 2038.

Trois Noix 2021 Rancho Pequeño Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Napa Valley California

Translated from the original French Trois Noix means “three nuts,” and it began as a joint project among winemaking and grape-growing friends; they like to think of themselves as making wines with a midpoint between older and newer, more modern Napa style. Their Rancho Pequeño Cab comes from a very small vineyard (hence the name) and is deep purple colored in the glass. It has enticing aromas of blueberry, Oolong tea, and graphite with soft, smooth tannins and flavors of black raspberry, black currant, and a just a touch of mocha in the finish.

Robert Mondavi Winery 2019 The Reserve To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Napa Valley California

To Kalon Vineyard was originally planted in 1868 and when Robert Mondavi chose it as the site for his new winery in 1966 it was already known to be one of the best vineyards in California.  The 2019 harvest was long and leisurely, giving the winemaking team plenty of time to let the grapes hang and mature. After fermentation the wine was aged for 21 months in 100 percent new French oak barrels. It is a blend of 97.5 percent Cabernet Sauvignon with 2.5 percent Petit Verdot which contributes to its ink-like hue. It has aromas of black raspberry, brown baking spice, and a touch of lifted mint with flavors of black tea, dark chocolate, and cassis. Drink now through 2039.

PlumpJack 2021 Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon Oakville Napa Valley California

Only 545 cases of the stunning 2021 vintage of PlumpJack Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon were made, so don’t wait too long to acquire some for your own enjoyment. It is brilliant purple hued with aromas of graphite, black currant, toasted hazelnut, and dark cherry with flavors of black plum, black raspberry, and mocha, all wrapped in a silky tannic sheath. Drink now through 2045.

My favourite place in Moscow to relax with a glass of wine, coffee or a dinner with friends. In the summertime it is lovely to sit on the sidewalk cafe. The staff is very knowledgable about the wines, and always manages to find a wine... that suits us and surprises us. The wines are in all price classes, from very reasonable to exclusive. The food is delicious and averagely priced. I hope you will like this place as much as I do! More

Very unique place in Moscow with normal prices for wine and food but excellent service and very comfortable ambience. Even the simple dishes had a certain flair that made them quite special. Will definitely go back!

First you are drawn to the wine and intimate nature of the place. We started at the chairs outside overlooking the nice street, but then descended into the wine bar/shop and ate dinner. The food is excellent. Duck with smoked orange puree was mind blowing... as was the flank steak with the best mashed potatoes in the world-can't even describe how fluffy the were. They help you pick wine bottles or glasses that are in your price zone and the staff is excellent and warm. Go here and you will not be disappointed. Moreover the food prices are incredible low for such high quality food, I would have expected dishes to be $5 more. For example the duck was about $14. More

There are not only good wines, but the food is also great and the service wonderful. Try the lamb and beef tartar as the first course.

This place is just an amazing choice for wine lovers! Definitely the best in Moscow. Hundreds of interesting and exclusive wines to choose from. Very serene and peaceful atmosphere, impeccable service and surprisingly impressive cuisine make this place even more perfect. The location is also... very convenient. Perfect 10 wine place. More

Nice quiet wine bar with a quiet restaurant downstairs. Excellent service for a good price. Wine was very good.

The Comprehensive Guide to Moscow Nightlife

• Posted on April 14, 2018 July 26, 2018
• by Kings of Russia
• 8 minute read

Moscow’s nightlife scene is thriving, and arguably one of the best the world has to offer – top-notch Russian women, coupled with a never-ending list of venues, Moscow has a little bit of something for everyone’s taste. Moscow nightlife is not for the faint of heart – and if you’re coming, you better be ready to go Friday and Saturday night into the early morning.

This comprehensive guide to Moscow nightlife will run you through the nuts and bolts of all you need to know about Moscow’s nightclubs and give you a solid blueprint to operate with during your time in Moscow.

What you need to know before hitting Moscow nightclubs

Prices in moscow nightlife.

Before you head out and start gaming all the sexy Moscow girls , we have to talk money first. Bring plenty because in Moscow you can never bring a big enough bankroll. Remember, you’re the man so making a fuzz of not paying a drink here or there will not go down well.

Luckily most Moscow clubs don’t do cover fees. Some electro clubs will charge 15-20$, depending on their lineup. There’s the odd club with a minimum spend of 20-30$, which you’ll drop on drinks easily. By and large, you can scope out the venues for free, which is a big plus.

Bottle service is a great deal in Moscow. At top-tier clubs, it starts at 1,000$. That’ll go a long way with premium vodka at 250$, especially if you have three or four guys chipping in. Not to mention that it’s a massive status boost for getting girls, especially at high-end clubs.

Without bottle service, you should estimate a budget of 100-150$ per night. That is if you drink a lot and hit the top clubs with the hottest girls. Scale down for less alcohol and more basic places.

Dress code & Face control

Door policy in Moscow is called “face control” and it’s always the guy behind the two gorillas that gives the green light if you’re in or out.

In Moscow nightlife there’s only one rule when it comes to dress codes:

You can never be underdressed.

People dress A LOT sharper than, say, in the US and that goes for both sexes. For high-end clubs, you definitely want to roll with a sharp blazer and a pocket square, not to mention dress shoes in tip-top condition. Those are the minimum requirements to level the playing field vis a vis with other sharply dressed guys that have a lot more money than you do. Unless you plan to hit explicit electro or underground clubs, which have their own dress code, you are always on the money with that style.

Getting in a Moscow club isn’t as hard as it seems: dress sharp, speak English at the door and look like you’re in the mood to spend all that money that you supposedly have (even if you don’t). That will open almost any door in Moscow’s nightlife for you.

Types of Moscow Nightclubs

In Moscow there are four types of clubs with the accompanying female clientele:

High-end clubs:

These are often crossovers between restaurants and clubs with lots of tables and very little space to dance. Heavy accent on bottle service most of the time but you can work the room from the bar as well. The hottest and most expensive girls in Moscow go there. Bring deep pockets and lots of self-confidence and you have a shot at swooping them.

Regular Mid-level clubs:

They probably resemble more what you’re used to in a nightclub: big dancefloors, stages and more space to roam around. Bottle service will make you stand out more but you can also do well without. You can find all types of girls but most will be in the 6-8 range. Your targets should always be the girls drinking and ideally in pairs. It’s impossible not to swoop if your game is at least half-decent.

Basic clubs/dive bars:

Usually spots with very cheap booze and lax face control. If you’re dressed too sharp and speak no Russian, you might attract the wrong type of attention so be vigilant. If you know the local scene you can swoop 6s and 7s almost at will. Usually students and girls from the suburbs.

Electro/underground clubs:

Home of the hipsters and creatives. Parties there don’t mean meeting girls and getting drunk but doing pills and spacing out to the music. Lots of attractive hipster girls if that is your niche. That is its own scene with a different dress code as well.

What time to go out in Moscow

Moscow nightlife starts late. Don’t show up at bars and preparty spots before 11pm because you’ll feel fairly alone. Peak time is between 1am and 3am. That is also the time of Moscow nightlife’s biggest nuisance: concerts by artists you won’t know and who only distract your girls from drinking and being gamed. From 4am to 6am the regular clubs are emptying out but plenty of people, women included, still hit up one of the many afterparty clubs. Those last till well past 10am.

As far as days go: Fridays and Saturdays are peak days. Thursday is an OK day, all other days are fairly weak and you have to know the right venues.

The Ultimate Moscow Nightclub List

Short disclaimer: I didn’t add basic and electro clubs since you’re coming for the girls, not for the music. This list will give you more options than you’ll be able to handle on a weekend.

Preparty – start here at 11PM

Classic restaurant club with lots of tables and a smallish bar and dancefloor. Come here between 11pm and 12am when the concert is over and they start with the actual party. Even early in the night tons of sexy women here, who lean slightly older (25 and up).

The second floor of the Ugolek restaurant is an extra bar with dim lights and house music tunes. Very small and cozy with a slight hipster vibe but generally draws plenty of attractive women too. A bit slower vibe than Valenok.

Very cool, spread-out venue that has a modern library theme. Not always full with people but when it is, it’s brimming with top-tier women. Slow vibe here and better for grabbing contacts and moving on.

High-end: err on the side of being too early rather than too late because of face control.

Secret Room

Probably the top venue at the moment in Moscow . Very small but wildly popular club, which is crammed with tables but always packed. They do parties on Thursdays and Sundays as well. This club has a hip-hop/high-end theme, meaning most girls are gold diggers, IG models, and tattooed hip hop chicks. Very unfavorable logistics because there is almost no room no move inside the club but the party vibe makes it worth it. Strict face control.

Close to Secret Room and with a much more favorable and spacious three-part layout. This place attracts very hot women but also lots of ball busters and fakes that will leave you blue-balled. Come early because after 4am it starts getting empty fast. Electronic music.

A slightly kitsch restaurant club that plays Russian pop and is full of gold diggers, semi-pros, and men from the Caucasus republics. Thursday is the strongest night but that dynamic might be changing since Secret Room opened its doors. You can swoop here but it will be a struggle.

Mid-level: your sweet spot in terms of ease and attractiveness of girls for an average budget.

Started going downwards in 2018 due to lax face control and this might get even worse with the World Cup. In terms of layout one of the best Moscow nightclubs because it’s very big and bottle service gives you a good edge here. Still attracts lots of cute girls with loose morals but plenty of provincial girls (and guys) as well. Swooping is fairly easy here.

I haven’t been at this place in over a year, ever since it started becoming ground zero for drunken teenagers. Similar clientele to Icon but less chic, younger and drunker. Decent mainstream music that attracts plenty of tourists. Girls are easy here as well.

Sort of a Coyote Ugly (the real one in Moscow sucks) with party music and lots of drunken people licking each others’ faces. Very entertaining with the right amount of alcohol and very easy to pull in there. Don’t think about staying sober in here, you’ll hate it.

Artel Bessonitsa/Shakti Terrace

Electronic music club that is sort of a high-end place with an underground clientele and located between the teenager clubs Icon and Gipsy. Very good music but a bit all over the place with their vibe and their branding. You can swoop almost any type of girl here from high-heeled beauty to coked-up hipsters, provided they’re not too sober.

Afterparty: if by 5AM  you haven’t pulled, it’s time to move here.

Best afterparty spot in terms of trying to get girls. Pretty much no one is sober in there and savage gorilla game goes a long way. Lots of very hot and slutty-looking girls but it can be hard to tell apart who is looking for dick and who is just on drugs but not interested. If by 9-10am you haven’t pulled, it is probably better to surrender.

The hipster alternative for afterparties, where even more drugs are in play. Plenty of attractive girls there but you have to know how to work this type of club. A nicer atmosphere and better music but if you’re desperate to pull, you’ll probably go to Miks.

Weekday jokers: if you’re on the hunt for some sexy Russian girls during the week, here are two tips to make your life easier.

Chesterfield

Ladies night on Wednesdays means this place gets pretty packed with smashed teenagers and 6s and 7s. Don’t pull out the three-piece suit in here because it’s a “simpler” crowd. Definitely your best shot on Wednesdays.

If you haven’t pulled at Chesterfield, you can throw a Hail Mary and hit up Garage’s Black Music Wednesdays. Fills up really late but there are some cute Black Music groupies in here. Very small club. Thursday through Saturday they do afterparties and you have an excellent shot and swooping girls that are probably high.

Shishas Sferum

This is pretty much your only shot on Mondays and Tuesdays because they offer free or almost free drinks for women. A fairly low-class club where you should watch your drinks. As always the case in Moscow, there will be cute girls here on any day of the week but it’s nowhere near as good as on the weekend.

In a nutshell, that is all you need to know about where to meet Moscow girls in nightlife. There are tons of options, and it all depends on what best fits your style, based on the type of girls that you’re looking for.
