Vinous, beastly, soapy. Dry tannins on a sweet, sticky palate. Excellent. — 6 days ago

A real bargain for $25. Light Ruby with aromas of red fruit and gentle perfume spice. On the palate strawberry and cranberry with tea and baking spices on a smooth tannin structure. Fresh finish with a medium length ending. Solid value, the fruit should calm down a bit in a year or so. — 5 days ago

Ruby with red fruit aromas and spicy herb floral notes, aged for 14 months in 35% new French oak. On the palate black raspberry and cherry flavors with herb tea and earthy tones. Firm grainy tannins, balanced acidity, nice mouthfeel,  pleasant finish ending with earthy mineral character. Nice! — 11 days ago

2014 Vintage. 15.6% Alcohol. 39% Syrah, 38% Grenache, 20% Mourvèdre, 3% Tannat. Best the next day after wine preserved in Argon so decant or give more time in the cellar but this is really good. Licorice, tobacco and boysenberry nose. Smooth mouthfeel. Great job Russell From. — 4 days ago

Drank the ‘14 and ‘15 side by side last night. 2 very different blends and as such 2 very different wines. Both good! The ‘15 nose fragrant and pleasing. The higher blend of Sangiovese softens the edges of the ‘15 vs. the ‘14. The ‘14 has very little Sangiovese and more Cab sauv. The ‘14 nose is a bit chemical. The ‘14 has more depth and nuance. The Syrah base sings through on both. — 8 days ago

I’ve posted this before, but this is just a terrific wine from Paul Lato. Highly recommended if you’d like an incredibly well-made, crisp, bright malvasia with a Central Coast fare to it. Awesome. — 5 days ago

Tannins have rounded out nicely and it’s got some pretty intense fruit forward characteristics. Black cherries, raspberries and a bit of spice on the back end. — 4 days ago
