I thought it was an extremely good riesling, classic petrol but just a really good wine — 3 years ago

It's hard to describe this wine except as the best rosé I've ever had. The bouquet has beautiful red fruit, with the taste of red fruit and citrus, with medium acidity that is not too high and extremely well balanced. It's the kind of wine I can't stop drinking but I want to share with all of my friends. If you care at all about drinking a rosé that punches well above it's weight in terms of value, you should buy this wine immediately — 4 years ago

Having never had muscadet before, this wine had great acidity, some citrusy character, and was almost a little salty? (but in a good way!). Compared to other wines it was definitely leaner, a perfect summer's day wine that I'll have to try alongside seafood. A great introduction to the variety that I definitely want to try again — 4 years ago

9.1

It can be difficult for me to identify the flavors in wine, but the pinot noir in this wine expressed beautiful fruit on the nose and palate, but slightly higher acidity which (to me) clashed ever so slightly with the taste. Don't mistake me though, this wine is excellent and is very well done — 4 years ago

8.7

Compared to the previous Barbera, similar higher acidity and lower tannins, which I like a lot about the variety. Unlike the licorice character from before this one had more of a fruit presence like cherries and maybe strawberries or blackberries. A solid wine and other good reference for a variety I'm really enjoying — 4 years ago

They did it again. This wine just inches out the Alpenglow rose with perfectly balanced acidity, but this time with even more fruit flavors. The St. Vincent has finesse and elegence that leaves no doubt about its quality. — 4 years ago

8.7

Solid weekday Pinot Grigio. Very flavorful actually, a good bit of body (compared to other bland pinot grigios I've had) with balanced acidity. Non descript stone and citrus fruits (from my lack of experience distinguishing flavors). Very good in my opinion — 4 years ago

Haut des Ruettes Vouvray Chenin Blanc 2018

8.5

First chenin blanc. A very crisp and refreshing wine, reminded me of stone fruits (peaches?) and a nice acidity that was decently balanced. Something I learned with this one is to not serve it too cold, it really started to smell the fruit character after it warmed a little from the fridge. $15 I think from the store — 4 years ago
