A fine, simple can. Doesn’t have much complexity, but a decent base. — 16 days ago

May not be fair to rate. Sat on the shelf too long. Flat. Acidic grape juice. Just a hint of the dark fruits that probably used to be there. — a month ago

Brioche, crisp apple sans skins, and underripe white peach. — 2 months ago

Very oaky for a Sangiovese. Not as much earth and dark fruit as a Tuscan. Much more of the barrel/wood. — 2 months ago

Fantastic poolside wine. Enough minerality and salinity to stand up to the sun, but acidic enough to be refreshing. Medium-to-full body white. — 18 days ago

Love this as a sparkling wine. Kir Royale our of the bottle. Cassis (maybe some blackberry and green apple, too?) and then more traditional champagne yeasty / biscuity-ness. Wish it had another level on the finish. — 2 months ago

Let it decant for an hour. Full of dark fruits with a balanced amount of vanilla. Long lasting. Could have more layers. — 2 months ago

Straw like a horse barn. Not as lively as anticipated. — a month ago

Too old. Alcoholic. First sip was ok, but developed ungracefully. Could have been good earlier. Likely would have been a bit herbal with a tiny bite. — a month ago

8.9

Red fruit, like cherries. Earth tones and a little woodiness, but cedar more than oak. A vegetal note in there. Took a LONG time to open and get rid of an awkward, bitterly tannic hint. — 2 months ago
