Beautiful merlot. Tons of fruit with plums, blackberry jam, but also a lot of tobacco leaf and some earth. Cedar, dried flowers, and tannin on the finish with dark fruit overlying it all. — 2 years ago
what a shape shifter! started out as a barrage of tea, restrained dark fruit and undergrowth. over the course of about one hour this opened up to a very generous offering of wild strawberry and ash. certainly an impressive showing. complimented a plain cheese pie perfectly. — a year ago
It needed breathing. Initial midrange tannins that went away with time. Full bodied. Bitterness changed to a well balanced barrage of all flavors — 5 years ago
Columbia county 2.0: Rose for Lopez fans like me suffering from recent sticker shock. Instead of 100$ it’s closer to 30$ & while not bearing that same intensity of acidity & barrage of tertiary flavors, close enough. More a lozenge red color, Unami & light red fruit notes, & a very solid acid backbone but not zingy. More like a light red. Paired very well w sliced grapefruit & orange w a tahini sauce, z’atar, & crispy hot onion oil. — 2 years ago

Revisiting at home after tasting in winery. Straw coloration. In the nose, pear, citrus and yeast. Hint of minerals. On the palate, apple, pear, citrus, brioche, good acidity and a long crisp finish. — 5 months ago
