9.5

A bold pinot with a soft touch. The first sips are zippy. Big cherry with some licorice swirl, covering your mouth gently but with presence. An oaky smoke lingers just a bit on the back of the roof of your mouth while the tart cherry fades to black. It was wonderful to come back to this wine. — 5 years ago

Smells like a peach orchard. Has a weight like nectar juice. A bit sweet on the sides of your tongue. Floral and youthful with a light but lovely finish that’s just a touch boozy. Like a good brunch. — 6 years ago

Licorice, tobacco and smoke (like a spicy cigar you want to hold between your lips), and a jammy fruit finish with a bit of chalk to suck you dry — 7 years ago

7.9

An amazing floral and strawberry hit to the nose, light and bright on the tongue. A little lemon preserve with that berry. Another nice rose for a lovely sunny day, but a bit simple and boozy on the finish for my taste. — 6 years ago

9.3

A Pinot drinker’s cab. This wine was meant to be enjoyed with friends. It’s connections to Chicago are clear in the taste. A tough brawny exterior and upbringing, coats this gentle beauty. A softness then comes when you’re there. Softness and fun among structure and architecture. — 6 years ago

6.7

Beautiful on the nose crisp, lemon, and floral honey, but the taste was peel, old honey flavored candy, and the weight of butter with an acidic but weighty and flavorless hangover. First Orin Swift to let me down. — 7 years ago

9.2

Funk, skin contact, and all the best buzz words, but this one didn’t disappoint. A body that lingers, the texture is smoother than expected. Polished. The Riesling notes come out almost creamy but there’s a crisp bite with nice acidity - grapefruit and a touch of agave. This drinks like a crisp night spent outside with sunsets, night sounds, and a promise of something to look forward to. — 6 years ago

9.3

Bonus points awarded for the complexity of this Gamay. Light bodied and playful on the tongue, but brooding with a sharpness and dark fruit/pepper. It feels like embarking on an adventure. — 7 years ago
