Third bottle and excellent! One more left. So much earth and herbs and bright red fruits. I love this wine. I’ve had two Mourvèdre wines I really enjoy from wineries that have shut down, who is using this fruit now? What other wineries can I get crunchy Mourvèdre that has a whisper of bandol but at the same time is hippie California? — 15 days ago

2021 vintage. Medium body. Excellent depth of field for the pricing. Will likely strip remaining enamel from your teeth but dynamite stuff. 3.20.26. — 6 months ago

The elegant side of #grenache - High-toned strawberry + red floral elements on the nose, elegant creamy texture on palate, soft tannins, balanced acidity. Lovely wine from I. Brand & Family Winery. #centralcoastwine — 4 years ago

Neighborhood wine store. Front end expected and typical, back end was a pleasant twist of under ripe white fruit with nice complexity. — 7 years ago

Old Vine Albarino from a small Church vineyard. One of my favorite prodcuers. White flower, lemon zest, hint of salinity and screaming acidity. — a month ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2023 San Benito County pours a deep ruby/purple with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of blackberries, black plum, black pepper, purple flowers, licorice, gravelly earth and a mix of cool and warm spices. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Delicious stuff and a perennial favorite of mine. Drink now through 2043. — 8 months ago
