Olive tapenade and star anise on the nose. Nicely balanced, medium-bodied. Not a ton of fruit, but maybe I'm just too accustomed to Napa cabs. Recommend decanting as there was some sediment. — 22 days ago

I've been on a mission to find an affordable,, delicious grenache rose. This H&B blend may be a keeper. It's the palest of pinks, strawberries on the nose, and nicely balanced between fruit and acid. I'll definitely be drinking more of this into spring and summer. — 22 days ago

This was everything I was expecting from a Dry Creek AVA zin - dark fruit and baking spice, with a medium-to-full body and smooth finish. Great value at $31 — 2 months ago

I very rarely identify everything listed on the winemaker's description, but this is the rate exception: stone fruit (peaches, apricots), crisp acidity (check), mineralogy (check). I've been on a southern rhone style white blend kick and this wine did not disappoint. — 22 days ago

First time trying a skin contact wine. Can't say I enjoyed it. It wasn't that it was bad, it just didn't taste like wine. — a month ago

First 80 degree day this year and this is the perfect wine to enjoy while sitting on the patio enjoying the warm breeze. Pear and mineral notes on the nose. Balanced blend, but the viognier shines through. — 22 days ago

The nose on this was incredible from the start - cassis, baking spices, and chocolate- exactly what I was craving tonight. But the wine really needed a lot of time to open up. Luckily, it's a Friday night and I've got nowhere to be! An hour and a half after decanting, the Cab Franc that had been very pronounced upon opening the bottle had mellowed and integrated nicely with the rest of the blend. — 23 days ago
