Done in a more full bodied, rounder style. For less than 14$ fairly uni dimensional & perhaps a bit too one note. — 5 days ago

I never liked this varietal- like limp Gerwirtz at its worst. But this is good- floral and salty with the requisite roundness & distinct. I liked it better colder. — 15 days ago

If I tasted blind would have thought Chablis with a light touch. As it is it’s white blossoms, apple skin, & white asparagus wrapped in tofu skin. Thank god I bought another bottle. — a month ago

Uruguayan natural red blend of Merlot, Marselan & Tannat. Let the Brett blow off. Dark cherry & mildly bitter chocolate, some pomegranate, plenty of sediment, & delightful. Amphora aged for six months after carbonic maceration. — 2 months ago

9.1

Nice tension, fresh open knit in generous crushed red cherries, pomegranate & some smoky paprika notes. Paired with simply prepared roast salmon with finely chopped celery & onion. That tension energy is what stayed w me though. — 5 days ago

Surprisingly satisfying with dry lemon curd notes, dried apples with the Chardonnay clearly leading the charge. For the price point a QPR just don’t expect more than two notes. — 17 days ago

Súper Tuscan with cab franc, drank with rich restaurant Italian meal. Polished tannins, opulent but balanced, glazed red cherries, light balsamic. The 8 years post release has tamed the beast enough. I swear the bottle weighed 5lbs. — a month ago

I think my 3rd bottle by now & a reminder it needs a hard decant or tasting over a few days so as to tame the tannins & bring out its true charm. Nebbiolo adjacent in its fine berry pedigree, all black & red fruited, more black but with a feral, focused intensity that is my catnip. — 11 days ago

Alpine wines in general & whites in particular just vibrate at a different level for me. Where Pinot blanc is more plain Jane elsewhere here it’s distinctive: mildly waxy yellow fruits, lemon curd, decent acidity. Great color too, like shimmery cadmium light yellow. — a month ago

80% Bical, 20% Arinto. I might like their red better ( My beloved Baga) but this still stands out for its showing as a mid weight beauty, lemon curd & almond paste notes, with a strong mineral streak & some interesting fennel & herb notes at the edges. Hopefully not cursing it by saying it’s Burgundy adjacent — 2 months ago
