A beautiful deeply colored rosé from Greece. A medium-light bodied wine that presents itself with a bit more fruit than others. Strawberry and a bit of cherry flood the nose, a bit of stone a pepper show as well. — 6 years ago

One of my favorites for the daily grind. You can't drink 50.00 bottles every night... well, I can't... but this bottle does well for everyday use with it's delicious dark jammy blackberry and some spice and vanilla. It's warm without being overpowering. Hits the notes of a good cab. Not complex but does nicely when watching TV on the couch wrapping up the day. — 6 years ago

A tasty,easy drinking rosé. Canned so easy to take somewhere glass is not allowed. Lots of bright red berry fruit, a bit on the off dry side. A solid pick for a picnic or outdoor event. — 6 years ago

9.0

A pretty standard Provence rosé, but delicious none the less. Delicate and fleeting, not much structure. More fruit forward than most I have tasted from the region, which makes it more atypical than most. One of the top 2 for the rosé tasting. — 6 years ago

Good rosé but for the price point, a bit lackluster. Typical strawberry/ raspberry notes with refreshing acidity. Fleeting finish. Better price points available for these characteristics. Value line of Domaine Ott — 6 years ago

9.3

Very good, though perhaps past its prime a bit and starting to show a little less character than I'd like. A nice acidity to match it's sunny yellow hue, taste of lemon rind and citrus, medium body, with a lot of rocky minerals and terrain. It is nice to have a wine focus on minerality vs fruit forward compounds. Hope to score a bottle of this a bit younger next time. — 6 years ago

9.2

A delicious bready cuvee. Sweeter than most but still crisp. Raspberry, strawberry croissant flavors. The sweetness lended itself well to the goat cheese cheesecake with raspberry sauce. Very drinkable, though one glass suited my tastes quite well. — 6 years ago

A nice, smooth pinot from Chile. Not particularly special or stunning, but good. A touch of oak, hints of earth and leather, some acidity, bright red cherry. Good forna quick grab after a long day. Would pair well with the right charcuterie platter. — 6 years ago

9.0

A lovely small vineyard chardonnay. Buttery but not an overly so. Not a huge oak bomb but some smoky notes along with crisp apple. A little less assuming and forward than big brand chardonnays that seem to be popular. An enjoyable, versatile chardonnay for everyday and more formal occasions. — 6 years ago

8.7

A LOT of acidity, and dry. Balsamic, dark berries; sharp. Lighter body, reminds me a bit of cabernet franc but without the character. I am to novice in chambourcin to say if this is typical for the varietal or not. Still a decent red for a meal with a rich red meat like a pot roast. — 6 years ago
