Fresh, crisp, minerality, citrus, stone fruit like apricot; no oak, it’s my perfect every time every day wine ; slight slight smokiness, could almost taste the gravel ..the vines were grown in the silex soil — a month ago
Alla cieca nessuno ha detto borgogna. Sembrava syrah. Molto buono però — 2 months ago
Not sure why the name, but this Sun King is stylish with great substance.
Nose is filled with ripe black plum, blueberry, cedar, cocoa, baking spices, leather and subtle forest floor. The palate is rich and gentle, layered with flavors that echo the nose. Delicious silky tannins.
Will continue to improve over the next 5 years or so. — 10 months ago

The 21’s here are masterful. Nose of late season black cherries, late season red cherries, earth, mineral and more. Blueberry and blackberry as well. So deep and expressive. That’s 21! Palate is teeming with energy and juiciness. Sour and red cherries and glorious silky tannins and lovely sweetness. Long and flowy. Needs time but just spectacular. So much finesse now and the fruit is all red now. — a month ago
2nd label but still pretty classy: tons of character & Left Bank flair: cherries & red currants, cigar box, vanilla, cassis, some herbaceousness, palate was delicious w/red fruit & cassis galore, silky, finely integrated tannins, nice weight and balance. Length on finish is the only giveaway this is not classified growth. Overdelivers for price point. Safeway Steal — 2 months ago

A French burgundy that tastes like a California Pinot (sorry). Cherry, but tannic. — 10 days ago
