A beautiful, very traditional Greek rose. Fuller flavors of red fruits, rose and hibiscus layered with wonderful touches of spice. A great food rose. — 4 days ago

Very young and quite sweet but beautifully balanced. It seems like a crime to drink this so young but oh was it good! — a month ago

The Pinot Noir is in an excellent place at the moment. The new oak has beautifully integrated back into the wine creating a perfect balance new world red. The nose is plus and soft showing black stone fruits and berries along with touches of wet earth. The palate is still juicy but not heavy with plush but still firm acidity and is velvety smooth. Flavors of blackberries and stewed cherries dominate with more subtitle notes of pomegranate, baking spice and oak. The finish is soft and lingering. Delicious. — 3 months ago

2009 vs 2018, the younger one is vibrant and fresh, lots of acidity and spice. The elder is ripe and rich, showing some age but with lots of life to go. — a month ago

You’ll be hard pressed to find a greater Soave out there. This wine at this age needs air to show its full potential. The nose shows sweet ripe melon, raw hazelnut, cut grass and fresh herb garden. The palate is soft and bright at the same time. Flavors of crunchy pear, green melon and citrus zest combine with dried bitter herbs and big round acidity. The finish is incredibly long and shows off the cleansing acidity and a kiss of stone fruit. A wonderful wine that deserves to age. — 2 months ago

A different Alsace Pinot Noir than I have ever had before. 1/3 new old, 1/3 one-year old oak and 1/3 old oak make for a fuller, more structured Pinot than most anything else in the region. Red fruits combined with earth and spice along with softer acidity than most create an enormously complex wine. Just delicious! — a month ago

This remains one of my favorites in the Ravenswood line because of its approachability. Soft and juicy with wonderful brambleberry, blackberry, raspberry and blueberry flavors along with soft oak and spice with just enough acidity to keep it from being flabby or fat. — 3 months ago
