Fresh and lovely Roussette, I have had a bad habit of holding some Savoie whites too long (10+ years), this bottle is in a great place, should age for 3-5 more years, but beautiful right now, lovely acidity and medium-weight, with very nice texture!! — 2 days ago
Lovely white blend (Arinto, Verdelho, and Antao Vaz from the Alentejano region east-northeast of Lisbon), floral, mineral, nice acid, medium-long finish, very crisp and refreshing! — 4 days ago
Garrigue, wild herbs, some lavender as well, the bottle doesn’t say, but Delectable shows a “Syrah cuvée” and a “Cabernet Sauvignon cuvée”, and this clearly seems Syrah, nicely balanced, savory, no excessive heat, this is quite nice, longish finish. [Checked my source, and this cuvée is 52% Syrah, 25% Cabernet Sauvignon, and 23% Carignan.) — 7 days ago

Dried redfruits (cranberry mostly?) aromas and flavors, resolved tannins, good acidity, mature but shows good length, should be great with the Wild King Salmon I’ll be grilling soon for our dinner!! — 5 days ago

Dry Creek Syrah, so still predictably pretty ripe and rich (14.5% ABV), fruit still shows a lot of primary redfruits, berry/cherry, not as tannic as in its youth, some leathery notes (low-level Brett, I’d guess) emerge with aeration, long, lingering kick-ass finish, Rick made some pretty amazing wines under this label starting in 1998.
