Smells like your kitchen on a Saturday morning.

Warming blueberry pancake syrup, splattering bacon grease, chicory steeped coffee, baked cinnamon and nutmeg, and fresh air passing through open windows directly through a bouquet of violets.

Charismatic and vibrant, it's also chewy with a rich, sweet concentrated core of raisins, dates, and compote.

Not as complex and distinct, and multilayered as I was expecting, but hard to complain in a weekend state of mind. — 8 months ago

Can’t go wrong with this wine. Fun, sophisticated, super drinkable. Hope I have more. — 2 months ago

Baby’s 1st parcela unica and gotta say, it delivered! I like the Envinate Lousas wines—they’re always pretty good but usually a bit green and not profundo imo. This one started that way but as it opened, the high acid rolled off to reveal an extremely terroir driven wine, ripping w tension and minerality. The Lousas mencias usually give fancy n rhone vibes to me (i.e. entry level jamet), but Seoane had more of a juicy mineral burg thing going on (think Irancy) than a meaty rock thing. The bride observed wisely that this wine tasted very mineral and oceanic, but more like a seaside cliff than a briny beach. — 3 months ago

Deep pigmentation, black olive, dusty old shed, dark fruits. Lighter body than most Syrah and lovely acid. — 10 months ago

All of the rotie things we love (violets, white pepper, bacon, dried herbs), plush dark fruit with a bit of green/stemmy finish — 2 months ago

Essentially Cote Rotie. Mid palate and finish are generous and complex. Not your fathers CdR. — 3 months ago

Gonon the magician. Still a bit wound with no decant, but that signature magic lies underneath. (I did not get to try the Jamet behind it 😥 ) — 4 months ago

Not something you’d see everyday - a Pfalz Syrah! Honestly it was a little boring after the Jamet. Good fruit purity and lovely spice. but lack’s the multi-faceted nature of the Jamet. A touch warm in the finish. — a year ago
