After 30 minutes of decanting all of the sharp acidity rounded out & it is like a baby CdP. Great value wine. — 2 years ago

Fascinating. A lot of melon and earth. — 3 years ago
This wine has a beautiful salmon orange color, quite brilliant. The nose displays the stone fruit and citrus one might expect from a white wine, but also a boatload of cherry and strawberry aromas. There is a lovely tangerine citrus note that comes after swirling the wine. Stone fruit dominates the palate, but with a considerable salinity over it, the kind of savory attraction for which winemaker Randall Grahm has made his calling card. — a month ago
Great wine! Fruity and well balanced. Tasty. — 5 months ago
Crisp bright and dry with floral notes, a soft slightly viscous mouthfeel and a lingering finish. A true to Rhone stunner. — 3 years ago

2005 vintage under screwcap. I little pssst when opened lol. Really great example right out of the gate. Lots of intense black fruit, game-y, herb-y aromas. The color was remarkably deep garnet and not too advanced. Slight tawnyness happening on the rim a bit. Palate was intense but balanced. Lots of typical CdP elements throughout. Great acidity. What a fantastic bottle! This is California’s best Rhône wine and it’s not even close — 12 hours ago
