Longtime favorite and I snap up this foxy number whenever I see it. Crunchy strawberry and herbs, a bit of animal and yeast at the end but not too much to compromise the freshness. I don’t think this ages and should be drunk up but that doesn’t make it any less special — 2 months ago

Foxy, peppery, funky, with character of black currants, kalamata olives, iron, a bit of sweetness. Gentle tannins and acids, very pleasant. — 4 years ago

It is Sunday night and I have finished three rounds of shoveling snow. I have just sat down to open and enjoy the 2016 Roxy Ann Winery Single Vineyard Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon.

On the nose there is black cherry, blackberry, black plum, black currant, cedar box, menthol and earth.

On the palate I am getting good black cherry, blackberry, black plum, cedar, graphite and earth.

This wine is medium+ to full bodied with medium + acidity and medium + firm sandy tannins that lead into a long dark fruit gravelly finish. Well, besides getting 10-12 inches of snow and having to shovel several times today, the weekend has been very nice. Please stay safe and healthy and have a great week ahead.

Dark ruby-purple color, definitely shows a little VA, but this is so complex and shows aromas and flavors I’m struggling to identify, there is a subtle “foxy” aroma I associate with Native American hybrid grapes, very long finish, great wine!! — a year ago

Transparent dark red. Cigar box and just ripe black currant. Ferrous. Lithe. Some wild herbs, violets, and a foxy feral quality. — a year ago

Popped and poured and the nose is incredible right off the bat. Crushed fresh grapes/magical grape soda. Lifted purple and blue fruit. Flowers. Tart and so transparent with a piquant, foxy, brambly, currant-y quality that keeps your nose in the glass. Wow, this is such a pleasure to drink. Keeps going with blood, gravel, mint, subtle smoke and lingering sweetness. I love this wine and I’m kicking myself for only buying 2 bottles. So elegant.

Holy shit. 24 hours and this is absolutely singing. — 4 years ago

Foxy. Black currants and dust on the nose with oak and some cocoa. Savory, tannic, palate staining and a little sweet, but with enough acidic lift and freshness even at 14 years to make for interesting drinking. Some sediment has fallen out, but not enough; more time will help.. Very tasty. — 4 years ago

Another super interesting wine by Deirdre Heikin. This blend is 90% Marquette and 10% La Crescent. Two northern american grape variety and the wine shows that non vitis vinifera varieties can make very good wine. The nose is a bit foxy at first, and the taste is then very interesting, good acidity level, slightly sour, notes of herbs and berries but still very round. This profiles definitely reminds me of alpine wines such as Mondeuse or even l’Etraire de la Dui, although these are vitis vinifera.

Sign of a real good wine: this bottle only got better on day 2 and 3...

Great job by pionneer La Garagista! — 5 years ago
