First and last time, interesting Sangiovese 55 Cab Franc 45 from Texas! Very lean purplish floral notes into acidic lean but balanced palate — 7 months ago
Started out closed, and smelling like a lumber yard. But with an hour or so of air, its Oregon roots start to show. Still shows significant but high quality toasty oak, together with sappy cherry fruit and earthy/sweet spices. In the mouth it’s balanced, with loamy, ripe fruit, crushed gravel, and a bit of black tea. Good concentration and length. The tannins are very soft. — 4 years ago

Really yummy red blend. Garnacha was over load on this wine. I qould prefer more syrah grape but very yimmy for price — 6 years ago
This is the GSM blend but there’s no way for delectable to tell the difference. Phenomenal blend. — 2 months ago
Good Provençal style Rosé. Crisp and light. Not as good as the top French Rosés but certainly a good Rosé. — 2 years ago
When in Argentina drink…..rose? Syrah based rose from the extreme North of Argentina, in Juyjuy, just south of Bolivia & Paraguay. At 15.1% abv a “ light” red. Fresh cut wild strawberries soaked in rum, & sure, runs a bit hot but who’s counting when drinking rose in BA. Apparently some young, brave guns making wine this far north & it’s delicious. Enough balance to keep things lip smacking. — 4 years ago
"a fierce, brave, velvety wine with intense black fruit and hints of vanilla and a niece leading to a long bold finish". Excellent CA Can, recommended to me by the HEB in-store wine consultant. Superb wine — 4 years ago

Very good, smooth, no harsh tannins. Cab Sauvignon, not Cab Franc. 19 barrels made. Would buy again, was $40 on Last Bottle. — 5 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of two days. Better on Day 1 but still very enjoyable on Day 2. The 2014 Cabernet Sauvignon pours a deep garnet/purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with significant staining and loads of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe black currants, blackberries, purple flowers, leaf tobacco, sweet minty herbal notes, espresso and stony, inorganic earth. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin (integrating) and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes form the nose. The finish is medium+. To my palate, this is textbook Mt. Veeder and the 2014 is currently singing. Drink now through 2034+. — a day ago
