I mean, it’s rosé. Very pale pink color. Round, soft, melon notes with a touch of minerality. Nothing that really stands out. Pretty generic. — 4 months ago
It’s fine. Definitely good for summer. Light and refreshing with a touch of carbonation. I mostly get strawberry and a touch of bell pepper. Quite dry with decent high acid and minerality. 9.1% means you can have a few and not feel terrible, too. — 5 months ago
I think the excitement for this every year is a bit overblown but it’s tasty stuff. Melon, strawberries, peach, and grapefruit. Quite dry and high acid. Keeps you coming back for another sip. Better than the flagship rose. — 2 months ago
Pear, banana, stone. Medium low acid with some minerality on the back end. — 4 months ago
Very generic Italian red. Some strawberry and tobacco on the nose. Medium body. Dry finish with fine tannins. Perfectly fine for the price point. — 4 months ago
Such an interesting wine. The nose is hard to pin down. Both fruity but also maybe a little meaty/sanguine. There’s a really sweet background note like jam or preserves. When I first opened it it almost seemed to have the slightest tickle of carbonic maceration, but I don’t know. Very curious all around but I’m enjoying it. — 5 months ago
Classics Bordeaux. Graphite and blackberry. Medium body with fine tannins. — 2 months ago
Too out of balance for me. It’s like drinking butterscotch candy in pineapple juice. It’s lacking nearly enough acidity to balance out the oak and tropical fruit. Maybe it’s better when it’s younger but I would think the oak would only be more pronounced. — 4 months ago
I haven’t had a lot of aged Chablis, but this is drinking remarkably well for being 13 years old. Austere; high acid but with some weight to it. Flint and lemon peel but I would wager this saw at least some oak as there is definitely a little butterscotch in the background both in the nose and palate. Drinks like a lighter more restrained Montrachet. — 5 months ago

Pretty earthy. Tobacco, leather, mushrooms, graphite, bell pepper. Medium-full body with fine tannins. Long oaky finish. I would say this drinks above its price point. — 2 months ago
