Gift to my daughter for her birth year. Paired with carrot cake and cherry pie. Deep inky purple red. Sweet, raisiny wine with cherry flavor. More ruby in character, has held up well with age though it’s not a vintage port by any stretch, not enough complexity — a year ago

2020/12/19 with lardo-roasted quail, polenta, squash with rosemary and garlic and carrot green salad with walnuts. Pale and savory, with lip-smacking acidity, minerals and dried flowers. With time, bright but deep berry fruit and brown and green spices emerge. Lovely northern Nebbiolo. — 4 years ago

2018 vintage. This is crushable wine. It is so easy to drink.
Bright, shiny cherry red in the glass. On the nose, Rainier Cherries, celery salt, carrot tops and green vegetal.
Get tasting this. Crisp acidity with bright cherries, strawberries and cranberries. It has a juiciness that is refreshing. It’s a steal at $25 CDN $$ — 4 years ago

Dark, smokey, sauvage. No notes really, just delicious as hell with braised pork shoulder, flageolet, onion, carrot and harrissa — 2 years ago

Dazzling 70s lampshade orange hue, with a pronounced nose of peach and ginger, jasmine and spice. Each sip tickles the palate echoing its perfumed nose, and yet maintains an impressive level of couth complexity, revealing evermore as it sashays towards the back of my throat. This is a sexxxy wine. A sophisticated wine. Acidity, minerality and tannin come together in a waxy state of bliss. Have with lemon and herb roasted chicken, carrot purée and Django Rheinhardt. — 4 years ago

Grenache and Mourvèdre. Juicy red and blue berries. VA in a good way - carrot, dill. Pepper, tarragon, and dried black tea. Medium acid, medium plus to elevated tannins, 13% abv. Elevated intensity and long finish. — 5 years ago

An entry level Rufina, but so QPR in a medium bodied 95 % Sangiovese 5% Colorino blend. Drank over 3 days, & it kept on giving. Dark red fruits like ripe plum with bay leaf in the background; medium acidity with a fantastically chewy mouthfeel, almost grainy. For 11$ & change on sale, high return QPR. Matched perfectly w roasted carrot & Brussel sprouts lasagna — 3 years ago

Carmelized fig and carrot on the nose.

This wine has a lovely heft, luscious and well made, blackberry spread, flint, gravel, tinges of pencil lead.
Super satisfying Wednesday wine.
The acidity and tannin playing together most excellently.

9.3

Active peach-gold and inscrutably, near opaque, with an arrogantly vaulted, whited foam tower, unblemished by human tears; clinging lacing like dish soap suds, tear raggedly to silhouettes of prehistoric headbutts. Soapy breastmilk and citrus rising on yeast, grapefruit pith peeled thinly, clover rolls just browning, and leather fringes. Lively mouthfeel as expected. Lime pith and grapefruit with papery ginger slices, orange zest, magnolia, carrot bread, straw, zucchini spirals, ginseng, and banana peel. Complex rusticity. .
