For a wine of this caliber from Warner Springs, California, incredible. Dark cherry, spice, wet clay. This is a wine to experience given the location of its source in the back country of San Diego County. — 3 months ago

Henry Jayer certainly live up to his name!

The wine possesses a profound, healing, oriental herbal bouquet. It's not like fresh mint or basil; it's more like opening a traditional apothecary cabinet filled with premium Chinese Angelica Root (Dāngguī), Astragalus (Huángqí), and dried lily bulbs, or walking through a damp forest after the rain, with scents of ginseng, licorice root, and dried citrus peel warming the air, all interwoven with the luxurious undertones of black truffle and moist earth. It's an aroma that evokes serenity, warmth, and nourishment.

Upon first opening, it presented an aroma of traditional Chinese herbs. After breathing in the glass for half an hour, the wine truly began to unfold, releasing intense notes of red fruits, woody fragrances, and those distinctive herbal nuances. The body is a remarkable fusion of elegance and power. Despite its age, the 1988 vintage retains a finely structured and layered profile, with a clean palate and velvety, silky-smooth tannins. The finish is exceptionally long, evoking the delicate scent of morning dew on bamboo leaves. Overall, it’s an utterly captivating wine that leaves one truly enchanted.

100% Riesling from two different sites on granite soils in the village of Dambach La Ville, about halfway between Strasbourg and Colmar. Citrus (lemon) and minerals. Fresh, high acidity — 4 years ago

Very nice for the price point.

Love Albariño, am I going to the seaside, am I going Tropical, bitting lemons... ? Should we come up with a scale, like the sugar ladder on bottles of Riesling?

Slap you awake, crisp lemony acidity, some stainless, mineral in the direction of salinity but could also be a fusion of stainless and acidity, slight waxy floral.

Bright yellow synthetic cork was fun, noticeable, and investigable. Orange would be more aligned with the hues in the label, but, thats just me.

As good as I remembered - an elegant, complexed burgundy that pairs well with French or fusion Japanese food. Super silky, long finish. Still a lot of life left in this 2005 vintage wine (opened April 2021). Delicious! — 5 years ago

Vintage 2017 / Syrah from the Rhône, I chose when tasting blind. Syrah is in it, just like Petit Verdot, Pinotage but dominant is Cabernet Sauvignon. Tastes like Old World. Warm and comforting. Great p/q. South Africa often surprises me. — 6 years ago
