Buyer for Whole Foods Market, Oakland Ca.
Although it’s quite light & delicate, there’s plenty that shines on the palate. Red apple, juicy peaches, lemon oil & almond skin. It has more acid than expecting, and no sign of heat sitting pretty @ 12.5% — 4 years ago
Cherries, raspberry, black pepper & herb crusted meat drippings — 4 years ago
Give this a moment to open. Initial macerated black cherry/plum and damp earth, bloomed into fresh raspberries and thyme. This is a big body beauj! Persistent salty tannin, cooked oyster mushroom. A touch green/crunchy with big white pepper & violet florals! — 4 years ago
Fresh, expressive and complete rosé. Fresh strawberry basket, muddled raspberry, stone fruit finish. White roses, basil, touch of white pepper. Hearty enough for BBQ. — 4 years ago
Consistently impressed by Lioco. Watermelon rind, fresh lemon, chopped herbs. Grapefruit and smooth river rocks. The rosé and their unoaked chard are great spring/summer staples ~$20 — 4 years ago
Sophisticated layers on layers. Thanks @Erik Helms ! — 4 years ago
Acidity, salinity & minerality galore! Puckering green apple, tart pear, lemon and slate. Light bodied but packs a huge punch. Begging for buttery sashimi. — 4 years ago
Delicate and approachable. White cherry and cool stone minerality. White flowers, rose petals, watermelon. Nice before dinner or patio wine. — 4 years ago
Candied watermelon nose, but very dry on the palate. Superbly fizzy, fresh and fun bottle. — 4 years ago
