Oaky and smooth. This wine has become one of our favorites! — 5 days ago
Lovely dark gold color. Butter, camomile, and many other components in a very complex nose. Rich and complex on the palate that is definitely high quality. Long finish. Love this wine! — 11 days ago
Jammy and fruity, raspberry flavor, light and smooth, better whe let to breathe and paired with charcuterie. — 7 days ago
Pale red, almost like dark pink. Light in style. Sour cherry on the nose. Medium to medium plus acidity. Tastes like raspberries, evolving to more earthy with a hint of dark fruit with some air. As somebody mentioned - elegant. — 21 days ago
I loved this more in SB. Did I have rose-colored glasses, or was it because I left this out in a 90 degree car for a day. We’ll never know!
This did take a turn for the better after 30 mins. Rich, medium bodied, yum yum. — 20 hours ago
This CPE’s Signature bottling. My second to last bottle of CPE. I believe this 2014 the last vintage they produced. I gave it a high rating based on more of my experience with the winery than the wine. The wine was very light in color with no brickage. The nose and taste were very light as well but there was some light (Cranberry) fruit notes and some cedar as well. The taste was about the same and the finish was okay. Nothing wrong at all just very light and past its prime. Think I’ll be drinking that last bottle I have on NYE, no reason to keep it any longer.
On another note; I so much appreciate CPE getting some of these wines to me last century when it may have be illegal to do so but Paterson, NJ and other things took precedence over the law of the day. — 19 days ago
Sipping Fine Wine
Medium Ruby color with aromas dark red fruits, black tea and ample floral spice, aged in 20% new French oak for 10 months. On the palate flavors of black cherry, blackberry and plum with tobacco, cedar, black pepper, tea and vanilla spice. Soft fine tannins, long finish, well balanced with acidity, ending with fruit, herb, spice and earthy wet stone character. Nice! — 8 days ago
