Delicious earthy blend. — 3 years ago
Let’s see:
Single vineyard
45-year old vines
A fantastic vintage
A reputable producer
Aged in American and French oak barrels for 22 months, 25% new
Additional 6 years in bottle age (at time of purchase)
How is $15 per bottle possible?!
The wine itself is fantastic as well. Ripe black plum, blueberry, licorice, cinnamon, black tea leaf, and hint of dried mushroom on the nose. Supple and balanced. No rush but very delicious now. — 4 months ago
Bought at Pine Orchard 9/23 $24. Rich berry flavors. Tannins have probably mellowed too much. Would like to try again with a younger Vintage. — a year ago
Drinking with Deb at Cathy’s. — 5 months ago
No bitterness or any minerality. Just crisp, clean, and flavors of white grape, lemon and lychee hint. Long lasting finish. Longer than I’d expect. — 6 months ago
Very nice nose, deep flavours of chocolate and a little bit of raspberry go well together.
This is a big flavoured wine with both the acid and tannin to let it last much longer, and thus will cellar for more years. — 2 years ago

Always a fun ringer in a double blind. Hard to call Chardonnay. — 16 days ago
