Like reading a novel. Big wine but medium weight… if that makes sense. Big fruit… but not a fruit bomb. Tons of sediment… but the color is clear and bright. This was a fun wine tasted over 3 days. From the town of Oregon House, California. In the Sierra Foothills. Near Clos Saron. … magic soil in Oregon House!? — 24 days ago
Rich black and red fruits, and a little tobacco on the nose. Initial fruit on the palate before the tannins kick in, a lush body with some oak notes. Very balanced and delicious. Happy 10 years in America, big man. — 24 days ago
Good!! BIG - red raspberry and strawberry and maybe a little anise? Hefty with fruit, a twinge of sweetness. — a day ago
Took a minute to open up but oh my goodness. Just fantastic. Little earthy big flavors. Heavier than most Pinots. — 12 days ago
This is the Select Blocks Organic SB. On the nose - big wallop of creamy gooseberry fool, guava with a little touch of the sea. In the mouth - a bit subtler than some NZ SBs with a bit of peach stone bitterness to balance the acidity and fruit sweetness- giving a more food-friendly finish than flavour initially suggests. — 22 days ago
Wow! Who knew that a dumpy little town in the Sierra Nevadas, Plymouth, could have search a nice, flavorful celebration of tastebuds! I love it. — 7 days ago
Ripe grapefruit, almost peachy - a little funk which blew off. Enough palate cleansing acidity to make this very moreish. A delicious wine which is amazing value at only $21.50 per bottle from one of the best Chardonnay producers in the New World. A big statement I know but try his premium Mate’s Vineyard and see what you think. — 2 days ago
Rose petals and dried herbs with a big aroma of rich cherry and balsamic. Comes off very rich and a little boozy (vintage?), much more than Benanti. Some astringency too for a wine usually very well balanced. Still a hallmark producer for Etna wine. Maybe a little time to rest would do well — 16 days ago
