Very fresh and primary! Gorgeous fruit notes, delicate hints of stems, spices, minerals and garrigue. Medium-bodied and transparent in its presentation, lovely acidity all the way through the palate. Made me think Northern Rhone more than Southern.
Very interesting. — 9 days ago

Cool simple bottle and label. A screw-top with class. Color is golden straw. Aromas of lemons and honey. Hint of freshly scrubbed flagstone patios. Flavors are lemon water, honeydew melon and jasmine tea. This is like all the good things in non-buttery Chardonnay mixed with the minerality and zing of Sauv Blanc. It’s fuller, denser and more elegant than most CA Chenin Blanc I’ve had. It’s also a white that seems to age nicely. If I could find it somewhere around here, it would join the short list for go to whites. — 3 months ago

Blend of Grenache (70%), Syrah (20%) and Mourvèdre (10%). Dark ruby color with a garnet meniscus. Aromas of black berry/cherry fruit, purple flowers, leather, garrigue and dried herbs. Flavors of dried blackberry and red and black cherry fruit, tobacco, black pepper, red and black licorice and a bit of smoked meat. Medium-plus body and finish. Plus acidity, nice structure and nicely smoothed out tannins. Well aged and hitting its peak. Appreciate you opening this one, Ron B! — 4 months ago

Venturing into Gigondas. Very pretty, with loads of strawberry and red fruit - almost too much fruit. Surprised given 21 was a frosty, cool yr in the Rhone. — 6 months ago

Full bodied Gigondas, paired alongside lamb ragu. Stood up great to the food. Think the wine could have used another hour decant to really show itself. — a month ago

A delicious and expressive Gigondas. If you know Gigondas this is a solid one, none of that oj astringency just enjoyable. If you don’t know Gigondas, now you know. — 3 months ago
