Popped and poured; no formal notes. This glass was poured from Coravin. A fun, predominantly red fruited Xinomavro that has an interesting sweet corn sort of thing going on. Red fruits and leather. Structure is firm but well managed and not punishing. Balanced. A few years of age and Coravin may have played a role in development. — a year ago
Very nice. Light beginning, heavy mid to after. Feel tannins, full body and quite “round - smooth carved edges” impression but fruity easy to drink lightness that makes it sticky. Toward Merlot? 65% Petit Verdot, 24% Merlot, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon. Need to try again. — 4 months ago
Another Costco Hawaii Kai find for $12. Great value, had twice. — 2 years ago
Honey roasted campfire. Awesome with anything umami bomb. An excellent representation of Tokaji for the kai-curious. Cork responsibly. — 2 years ago
Needs an hour decant.
Nose : rich Meyer lemon. Sweet richness. Amazing nose. Hint of lemon floor wax. Elite level intensity. Some smoke as it opens.
Palate: very dense but in a fruity way. Large polished stone minerality. Meyer lemon.
Very particular.

Bought at Hawaii Kai Costco. I don’t think I’ve had this vintage. Pleasant enough for the price point. Would buy again. Not remembering the cost. — 2 years ago
Lovely. Super mineral and precise. No formal notes. Cooking dinner wine. Really long. Will update tomorrow.
Today it’s super minerally with amazing depth of aroma. Still lean but man does it have breadth. Juicy and clean. Like a Riesling razor. 9.2 to 9.3. Juicy, luscious and lime infused finish. — 3 years ago

Minerals! Lemonoil, petrol, earth, wool. Quite concentrated, saline, creamy, well balanced. Made me think dry Loire Chenin. But it’s not..
Drinking great right now. — 3 months ago
