No oak. Minimal acidity

Yet it’s bursting with fruit and has a brightness to it that is excellent. — a year ago

A little more going on with the Porcupine Hill than the straight Bearwallow. More complex for sure. Still not as good as the Alpine and Horseshoe. — 2 years ago

This one needs a hair more time than the Horseshoe. Still, terrific. — 6 years ago

Yum. Peach, lime, nice and crisp. Drinking great. Not quite at the level of my favorites-Alpine and Horseshoe, but I am not unhappy. — 7 years ago

Good Cabernet Sauvignon for pizza or tacos. Fresh wine with a fruity flavor. But this wine is way too expensive for this style of Cabernet at $92. This tastes like a $35 light style pizza Cabernet, not a sophisticated $92 wine. There is no structure or complexity here. — a year ago

This was excellent. So clean. Ocean spray. Bright acidity. Totally different and preferred to Horseshoe chard. — 2 years ago

I gave instructions to get the 2013 Rhys Horseshoe Syrah, but this is what came up. Oh well. A lovely bottle. The nose is intoxicating: blackberry crisp, bramble, cola, soft olive, and fantastic salinity. On the palate, good acid, but maybe a touch softer than I would like. More cola, blackberry, soft olive. Good density, but perhaps thins out a little quickly. On the finish, the tannins are fine, but have a slightly pasty air. Very nice. Probably could have waited longer, but this is drinking well now. — 6 years ago

A field of fresh real strawberry mingled with blackberry bramble and mint.
This nose continues to influence the wines light bodied flavor nuances.
Cherry skins, ripe red fruits, feathery vanilla tannins, crisp and well integrated horseshoe acidity. (Front and sides of tongue)
Delightful.

Citrus, floral and slight butter on the nose. Modest acidity and tannin structure that makes you briefly think of a Sauv Blanc but the butter brings you back to the Chard. — 2 years ago

Have generally preferred the Horseshoe vineyard in past years but the ‘17 Bearwallow is amazing! — 5 years ago

Really enjoyed this! Much richer in mouthfeel than some of the other vintages and vineyards (Horseshoe, Bearwallow). — 7 years ago

After an afternoon on the lake, we settled in for some pasta...and some Pinot. DFV seems to over deliver every time I pull a bottle. Beautifully textured, elegant and creamy raspberry and subtle earthiness. Fabulous blend from two distinct vineyards, Horseshoe Bend and Campbell Ranch. — 8 years ago
