Great wine. Needs some time to open. Dried cherries, herbs, some leather and hint of olive brine. Awesome with food. Love it — 2 days ago
Gorgeous wine. Take me to jura! Savory herbs, redwood grove, cherry and other berries, flowers. The palate is an explosion of flavor. So many different tart berries, mint, stone, evergreen tips, just so good on its own and with food. — 7 days ago
This is van der kamp chard. The nose is bonkers, stone fruit, jasmine (may be influenced by blooming jasmine in SB now), lemon, more stone fruit. It’s so much. Palate is just lovely. Coats entire mouth with flowers, vanilla, apricots, lemons, tangerine, tart nectarine, some sea salt. Let it open for about 3 hours. It’s one of the best chardonnays I’ve had. Long lingering finish. At like the minute mark it almost gets sweet lemon hard candy in the mouth. Begging for another sip. — 2 days ago
Needs time. Brawny and a lot of forest. Some big fruit. Didn’t seem integrated but all the pieces seem to be swirling around that it will be better with some more time. — 3 days ago
Even better than last bottle. More integrated. So much flavor and earth and balance. Just outstanding — 11 days ago
Not bad at all. Great acidity. Big fruit, some tannin and rocks. Very drinkable and not boozy. — 2 days ago
2017! Outstanding wine. Tasting great. So fresh but with some darker fruits. Stone, earth. So glad I was able to find some bottles to bring back the dirty and rowdy magic. Great wine — 2 days ago
I’m impressed. Young, fresh, good amount of fruit, cola, spices, good acidity, red apple skin, strawberry. Love it for the price. — 9 days ago
This is great! Tastes like Bandol rose meets tribute to Grace Grenache rose. Fuller bodied. Strawberries, roses, touch of melon, stones, coats entire palate like a creaminess. Love it! Wish I had a lot more! — 14 days ago

Past its prime. Licorice, dried plums, cigar, a bit of acidity but overall more like an old port than merlot. — 12 hours ago
