This is a white wine with a meaty taste. Clean and clear it mimics red Malbec without significant tannin. It was a pleasant sipper which complemented a savory chicken dish beautifully. The finish was medium. — 11 days ago

This Merlot is full bodied. It has blackberry and plum flavors a full mouthfeel and medium finish. It stood up to beef and chicken. The finish was pleasant and offered some subtle minerality. — 2 months ago

This Italian “Zinfandel “has a warm mix of blackberries and plum fruit, some herbal background and ample tannins. Medium finish. Very nice Primitivo from Italy’s south. — 2 months ago

This is a Tuscan blend of Sangiovese. Merlot and Cabernet Sauvignon. The wine opened over time giving each grape a place at the tasting table. Sangiovese provides red fruit and herbaceous notes, Merlot gives some plum sweetness and the Cab gives structure and tannin. Finish is short but this complements tomato based sauces very well. — 11 days ago

A pleasant taste of apple and pear that lingers slightly with a pleasant steely finish. This was a good match with honey mustard chicken. — 2 months ago

2020 was a difficult vintage and although there was no smoke taint from the Sonoma fires, the wine was unfocused and sharp. Blackberry is evident and tannins were prevalent. Disappointing at this stage of its development. — 4 months ago

This is not a standard Italian spaghetti wine. There is ample fruit with flashes of plum and red fruits and a sleek and light body. The alcohol listed is 13.5 which requires careful winemaking in the Italian south. Medium finish. — a month ago

I hoped for more fruit and layers from this Pinot. There was some cherry and other red and black fruits muddled together. The vintage promised more than this wine delivered. — 2 months ago
