Beautiful ruby colored wine. Pronounced notes of dark fruit, cinnamon and cedar. Full bodied flavors of blackberries, dark plums, and spices carried by sleek tannins to a beautiful finish. An excellent wine from the top of Spring Mountain. — 3 days ago

Enjoying a cool climate Syrah from Carneros. Hints of baking spices, red and blue fruit. Lots of black pepper, grape jam, dried spices, dark cherries and a slight hint of smoked meats on the palate. A delightful wine with a very nice finish. — 10 days ago

Venturing a little out my comfort zone. This wine shows the characteristic aromas of “tar and roses” plus I get some leather hints as well. It is light colored and opaque with just a tiny show of bricking around the edge. Lots of bright cherries and red plums on the palate with dusty tannins which are nicely integrated. The acidity is really nice. I am really liking this wine. — 23 days ago

Pale lemon with an almost light green hue. Hints of lemon, apricot, and pear with a slight touch of petrol. Medium acidity and medium bodied. Tastes of lemons, pears and a little hint of almonds. Great silky mouthfeel and a really nice citrus finish. — a month ago

Napa Valley Sangiovese? Beautiful dark garnet in color. Hints of blueberries, baking spices and dried flowers on the nose. Given where these grapes come from it is not surprising that there are great flavors of dark plums, blueberries, licorice and mint on the palate. Tannins are very refined and the acidity is very mouthwatering. A hidden gem in Calistoga! — 7 days ago

Pale straw in color. Lots of citrus, vanilla and fresh baked bread on the nose. On the palate the citrus shows front and center with tastes of lemon. In addition there is a slight hint of salinity and minerality. This wine is medium bodied with an silky mouthfeel and a long fruit bounded finish. A really good wine. — 11 days ago

A very nice entry level White Burgandy. Clear light straw in color. Aromas of lemon zest and sourdough bread. Medium bodied with a little bit of a silky petrol feel on the tongue. Nice flavors of citrus and peaches. The finish is nice with lingering tastes of lemon. A very clean, crisp wine with excellent acidity. Paired nicely with chicken piccata stir-fry tonight. For the price a very nice wine. — 24 days ago
