One of my favorite merlot wines ever. Last bottle, 10 years old. An amazing nose of a basket of berries in the sun at a picnic table in a redwood grove with freshly cut grass nearby. It smells divine. There’s also a baking spice berry pie element but acidity is prominent. Palate is just wonderful berry bramble and more baking spice, good tannin, a hint of dried fruit but this is tasting fresh still. What a wine!! Wish they didn’t make 47 different wines each year and focused on stuff like this. — 6 months ago

Mind blowing. Legs for days. So complex and sophisticated, elegant, velvet, super sexy, knocked my socks off at the same time! — 2 months ago

2022. Weather was really encouraging rosé on the patio, so we were happy to oblige! Loads of chunky sediment that was easily kept in the bottle (kind of). Delicious pink grapefruit, strawberry, watermelon. Mouthwatering acidity, but balanced with the fruit. — 2 months ago

2023. Diverted my latest shipment from the D&G club to NE since I knew I’d be back for the holidays. I’m glad they included this gulpable “nouveau” again this year. Paired great with local chèvre and olive sourdough! — 20 days ago
