+3Y in the cellar has really benefited this wine, generous strawberry, ripe apricot, orange zest tingle the senses, finally.

Bright blueish and berry fruits. Medium body. Little punch to it with acid and some tannin. Kinda reminds me of a cab version of a turley zin. Solid — 2 years ago
An excellent start to our weekend. Very nice floral notes give way to an elegant, fruit forward wine that screams drink me. It worked very well today in Houston with a temp in the 70’s, but it would really rock on a hot summer day. Beautiful fruit followed by a great finish. — 7 years ago

Wow, this continues to be one of my favorite Provence rosés, ripe strawberry, cold peach, watermelon rind, damp limestone, white pepper; with +3Y of age we're at peak enjoyment.

I’ve always loved the 2003 Napa Cabernets despite vintage charts and reviews.
This wine was procured at auction dirt cheap and it’s one of the early Kelly Fleming wines - maybe 2nd vintage.
Needed airtime and oxygen. Still a lot of power and dark flavors. Fruit remains and it’s quite a solid wine. Winner in my book — 2 months ago
