Perfect age. Bouquet, violets licorice. Nice finish. Almost everyone would have difficulty differentiating this from a premier cru Bordeaux. — 9 months ago

Savory smoke, mint, sweet fruit notes. Trashy tv in bed. — 3 years ago

Lighter red color than I expected. Kinda a dark rose color. Nose is pencils and damp granite gravel river bed. And cherry Coke. Flavors are very dry and the whole classroom pencil sharpener. Also has rose petals and black chocolate mixed with anise and charred meats. Hint of blood. — 4 years ago

First time trying this, and it’s prodigious. Balanced and laser-focused.
All my scores are rolling to the center of the bed at 95. — 2 years ago

Juicy yet elegant Gamay fro the Loire. Black currant and black cherry on a bed of rock. Pure in it’s fruitiness but with nice structure coming from the granite.
Drinking very nicely and a perfect fit with goat cheese. — 4 years ago

Fruit forward and easy drinking red wine on a nice summer evening. Good value for this vintage 2016. Had to be less than $15 at Bed Bath and Beyond/World Market. — 5 years ago

It’s wines like this that make me get out of bed in the morning. Not a ballyhooed wine but it is damn delicious. Fresh and unique the wine floods the pallet. — 3 years ago

The “Un-Rose” as I like to call it. Nose is strawberry, cherries and citrus. So clean. On a mineral bed. Smells like summer. Watermelon as well. Blood orange with air. Dense, deep and sappy for this wine as 18 vintage carries a lot of weight with it, but it’s so caressing, so supple and so succulent the extra weight is carried off effortlessly. Amazing palate presence and finesse. The palate is surprisingly mineral with some mid season cherry fruit. This will open as it aerates. But this is best since 15 for me. — 4 years ago

Terrific pinot from Greg Brewer and Steve Clifton. Absolutely love their wines after a few years in bottle, they come across as a central coast version of a premier cru burgundy. The nose screams Old World with earthy notes, but the rich palate says New World with evolving layers of red berry flavors, all supported by enough acidity to keep the wine alive. Awesome pairing with Vanessa’s poached chicken with a tomatillo and jalapeno salsa on a bed of steamed spinach with onion and bell pepper. In short, life is great! 😊 — 5 years ago
