Deep and savory. Brooding blue and black fruit. Black pepper, black olives, and eucalyptus. Moderate acidity. Polished but still thoughtful. — a year ago

Amazing how well it’s held up. Recommend a decant it was waaaaaaay better after open for 90 minutes. Oak shows prominently at first especially on the nose but integrates with air to reveal pretty apricot flavors and even some floral notes. Just awesome. — 6 years ago
Drink ‘em if you got ‘me. After an hour, this one’s not yet flirting with the edge. The nose is sniffable without needing a sip. Fun, indeed to see these can go baby go. Mostly because when a bottle of Chardonnay is purchased in the US, 98% of those buyers think it needs to be consumed before the sun goes down. — 8 years ago
This wine will be excellent after at least 2 plus years of bottle aging. Go out and get some, I have access if you need it. — 6 months ago

Unique Cali chard. Still a little grippy. The oak is very present on this 3+ year old, which is not surprising. There’s a lot to like here. Chewy and complex. Will be amazing to see this in 5 years. Thanks @Ehren Jordan — 7 years ago
Quite polished with judicious oak. — 3 months ago
Aromas of lemon zest, green apple, and coastal wildflowers lead into a palate of pear, citrus oil, and crushed stone. The concrete egg and Austrian foudre lend purity and gentle roundness, while 15% new French oak adds subtle spice and toast. Bright acidity carries a saline, mineral-driven finish with impressive length and poise. — 7 months ago
Big for a Pinot, and delicious! Juicy red fruit with a clean finish. Beautiful! — 3 years ago
[Sorry couldn't find an entry, logging here Failla 2018 Pearl essence] Single clone - Martini. One taste it surely reminds me of a bottle of Burn Cottage I had a while ago - the same acid lift and acid structure, tomato leaf, sour cranberry, citrusy and bright, red flowers and white + black peppers. 400-500 feet inland, super cool microclimate. Ah it turns out both connected to ted lemon! — 4 years ago
Super smooth! — 6 years ago
