Clear, deep ruby in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of cassis, blackberries, and smoke; on the palate, it's dry with medium acidity, high tannins, medium body, high alcohol, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of plum, black cherries, cardamom, and crushed gravel with a long finish. This wine is complex, intense, and well balanced. Overall, I rate this wine as outstanding. — 17 days ago

Tangerine, peach, and watermelon. Nice bright acidity rounding out freshness. Enjoying this on the patio during a rare Texas August cool front. — 6 years ago

Thank goodness for excellent Peter Michael chards! It is bloody hot and humid in Texas this week and the thought of a heavy red is unappealing but a great nuanced, non oaked, structured Chardonnay hits the spot! All smiles! — 6 years ago

2019 blend not stated on label. Better than 2018 blend. Non-vintage white wine blend but varietal percentages change from year to year. This 2019 blend has 65% Albariño and 35%Trebbiano. Crisp, refreshing, better balance between acidity and sweetness. Excellent and recommended. — 7 years ago

Juicy, lip-smacking good; perfect pairing for tacos on a hot Texas afternoon. Ripe cherries, plums, sweet tobacco, cloves, nuanced licorice. — 6 years ago

This is delish. Just add Texas heat creeping in and this makes for another perfect Spring/Summer patio chill wine. (I am developing a quarantine theme...). Raspberries, red cherries, and maybe some granny apples. Refreshing Rosato for the red wine lovers. Plus I just love Acorn - a great value/quality buy. If ever in Sonoma, stop by and visit Betty and Bill to hear all about their wines and their passion. — 6 years ago

Twenty one year old red Rhône blend from Monterey County, 56% Syrah, 32% Grenache, 7% Carignane, 3% Petite Syrah, and 2% Alicante Bouchet. Pale ruby. Red currant, plum, black cherry, pepper, game and dusty tobacco on the nose. The palate starts out weaker and less complex than the nose but calibrates after a couple of hours. It is dry, with medium acidity, dialed down alcohol, medium tannins, medium body, pronounced flavours of red fruits, plum and spice, some dark chocolate, a peculiar short earthy gamy finish. I would love to try this with Texas Style Brisket. — 3 years ago

Visiting Fredericksburg TX for a few days. This is TX hill country and has a big winery community. Never tried any TX wines before but found a few surprises here. We tasted at Becker earlier today but not this wine. $30 on the restaurant wine list. Becker wasn’t our favorite stop but it is the only local winery represented on their list. Overall local wines seemed overpriced compared to CA wines. Just realized we had an older vintage (2018) on our last trip from Houston to Anaheim. It’s interesting that most of the grapes used in the local wines come from Lubbock (panhandle) area. Don’t know where these grapes came from, or what varietals are present. — 5 years ago

Last week in Texas. Hosted a final dinner for close friends. Been a great 8 years! This was sublime. So cool tasting Pax’s transition from big wines like this (14.5% abv) to what he’s doing now. Damn I love Pax — 6 years ago

No one really knows who left this one on the table, but it had some really stiff competition. This one wins the award for the most intriguing and the "betcha would have never guessed this to be a chard" chard. Very light lemongrass nose. Definitely sweeter nose, but didn't scream chard to me. The entry is light, no butter, little minerality, mostly lemon and lime. Very enjoyable. This Alexander Valley chard would have gone the best alongside a swimming pool and 105 degree Texas heat. Finished with crisp notes. Very pleased with this wine, but again I am 1000% certain that it would have taken someone from Garden Creek to have recognized this wine in the lineup of chards that we had tonight. — 8 years ago
