Sometimes a year of bottle age creates a dramatic change, and this magic happened here. Will for sure cruise nicely for another few years, but already offers an array of interesting stuff. Get it! — 3 days ago

Very fragrant. Lovely nose. A little sweet but very lovely with something like lamb. Fruity. — 3 days ago

Cranberry, currants, plum, and maybe some fennel or liquorish. Earthy and spicy. Makes leafy greens feel indulgent. Like the free spirited girl in school your mom told you not to hang out with — 15 days ago

Love this vintage. This is like Cru Beaujolais in California. Lean, fresh and rustic bistro wine with bright pomegranate, raspberry, floral and spice notes. I love what carbonic maceration does for this wine, providing aromatic lift and creating a linear shape and movement on the palate with just a bit of fine tannin building off the mid palate. The drop off is a bit sudden but that is the style Pax has crafted from this vineyard and I happen to love it. Morgon fans will dig this wine, and I’m just a huge fan of this very focused vintage. — 6 days ago

Nose of blackberry, garrigue, olive, Provence dry herbs, fig... so many layers. The palate is a model of balance with a strong acid backbone that plays along a lovely red and black Forrest fruit. Some tannins to kick off a bright and persistent finish with fruits. I love it — 4 days ago

Another gem from the California Lost and Found file. My friends at Meeker Vineyards recently stumbled upon 100 cases of this 2001 bottling of Mendocino Carignan in their cellars. When they offered me samples I happily accepted. Drinking very well- great purity, definition and balance. Bright red fruits, dried flowers, mint,
eucalyptus, tobacco- characteristics that I’ve noted in some of their older wines. Skillful cork removal and decanting required, tools not included. — 14 days ago

A lot of blackberry crumble, rhubarb, cinnamon, dusty, and very rustic. From Mendocino to SLC. — 11 days ago
