9.2

Medium+ viscosity, dark ruby/orange with white at rim. Bright cherries, cough drops, vanilla, orange peel, white flowers. Very light in the mouth with tart cherries, raspberries, medium acid, some tannins, medium+ finish length of moderate complexity. Drinking well but getting to the thin side and lacking more of the inorganic/darker notes, could be due to age. Drink now- still great! — 15 days ago

The key with this wine is to open it and leave it open for a day or two. Over the course of 48hrs this wine moves from thin, tight, tart, mediocre to a solid and enjoyable, good value Barbaresco. Tar, dried cherries/currants, tobacco/humidor, sage, rosemary, wet old oak all appear and the result is a well-balanced, good value wine, if a bit short on complexity and aftertaste. — 24 days ago

One of the best rosés of the season- grab some. Good bit of complexity here and a smooth, crisp finish. Pop and pour! — 10 days ago

9.1

This really hit the spot with our grilled shrimp and vegetables. Honeysuckle, toasted honey, apples, maybe some lees? Refreshing, complex for a white, and a great balance of fruit, inorganics, and acid. Top notch if you’re looking for an Italian style white! — 10 days ago

9.1

Fruit-forward Merlot-based blend with a shallow of tannins and acid. Dark, staining magenta with some sediment, nose sees muted cherries, palette is strong with jammy raspberries/cherries, long aftertaste. Not usually a big Merlot fan, but this Delille blend has enough heft and tannins to stand along side WA cab-based blends. — 24 days ago

Cherry cough drops, cranberries, tobacco, cedar. Still making my way through my stash of 2012s and this was a standout. — 10 days ago

7.9

One of the lightest and subtle wines I’ve ever drank. Not convinced this was a Viognier (as identified) given 12% ABV and extreme subtlety. Golden apples, pears, white flowers, but you can barely taste it- like lightly flavored water. — 20 days ago

8.7

Good dinner party Riesling, not great, little too thin and missing complexity but has some nice brine, petrol, and white peach notes. — 25 days ago
