Dark purple color, with a lot of earthy components. Floral notes with a wooden accents, vanilla, and dark ripened fruit. All with a bit of leather. Nicely balanced with just a medium tannin structure. A lot softer than the flavors and scents give off. I think it’s delicious, and the 2018 is drinking quite primely right now. — 5 months ago
Good medium bodied nebbiolo. Light red color with earthy scents and bruised strawberries with pepper and perfume. Really nice and dry, though the tannins are chewy. Oak, leather, mushroom, earth. Need some red meat with it. — 6 months ago
2006 is drinking so fine. Dark fruits and meats. Bold and soft with medium silky smooth tannins. Absolutely on point. — a day ago
For the dog days of summer - this is a big rose. Dark for a rose and dry as a bone. Beautiful components of crushed strawberries, cranberry, and tart red cherries. A slight funk which is nice, kind of like a beer. Delicious. — 2 months ago
Just an incredible 19 year old bottle with plenty of life left but drinking perfect tonight. Inky and dark purple. Raspberries and cherries, but with lots of dark fruit, spices, caramel, and gamey scents that develop more deeply when stirred and sipped. Elegant balance of tannins and fruit. Medium+ body. 5 min or longer finish. Robust but not overwhelming. — 5 months ago
Fantastic 9 year old sekt that really highlights the things I am familiar with in this region. Green apples, pie crust, lemon curd, and peaches. Very much alive and zippy, drinking like it’s much younger but with the complexity of a long wise life. — 6 months ago

Gorgeous bottle of ruby red shades and intense aromatics featuring vanilla, spices, rose petals, and nuts. Quite complex. Great medium+ body and strong acidic structure but with a refined weight and balance, it’s not overpowering but has a lot of character. Really good lingering finish. — 6 months ago
