34 years old. The brand is gone but I presume the vineyard is still producing for someone. With an hour of aeration it opens complexly to red forest berries, cedar pencil, iron. If you like well-aged right bank Bordeaux chances are you’d like this. — 4 months ago

Over delivers for a $15 btl. Nice, clean, dry, fresh, white blend. Not unlike a modern well made Viognier. — 4 months ago

Clean, fresh at nearly 5 years. Reductive and a little spritzy in a good way. Resembles a top German Müller-Thurgau. — 4 months ago

Bordeaux meets Loire. More towards the latter. Very nice indeed. — 3 months ago

I don’t have a reference point for Refosco but I do for nice, tasty wine, and this one delivers on that count. Blackberries, violets, and subtle iron-iodine notes that many Northeast reds often exhibit. Medium-bodied, moderate tannins, bright and fresh. — 4 months ago

30-year-old Washington Lemberger (aka Blaufrankisch). Shockingly youthful color shows barely a hint of age with amazingly fresh aromas and palate. Blueberries and ripe plums. Red Mountain minerality brings a degree of subtle complexity with aeration. — 4 months ago
