Elegant take of Tempranillo. Ripe cherry and plums with oak sensations. Medium to full bodied, high acidity. — 7 years ago

M2’s Belle Etoile Blanche is a delightful dessert wine that is pleasantly sweet without overdoing it. The nose is honey and apricots, while the palate shows a crisp and acidic palate that draws a line against cloying and stands well apart from it. The fruit is clean and ripe - certainly - and leaves a citrus and stone fruit finish after the sip. This will pair with cheese in a heartbeat or a fruit tart in about the same time. — 10 years ago

The m2 Alicante Bouschet from St. Jenise's Vineyard is as dark as dark gets. The inky indigo color does, indeed look like it means business. On the nose, you get aromas of cassis and a fistful of spice - clove, nutmeg, cinnamon, cardamom and anise play into the profile. The palate shows monstrous black fruit - blackberry and plum - with plenty of spices getting plenty of play. The spicy character lasts into the finish and stays awhile.
If a rib roast is on your holiday table, this should be, too. It will pair with lamb just as nicely. The Lodi Wine folk say they like it with a smoked paprika pork chop, and now I want some of that. — 11 years ago

Light, fruity, good seam of acidity, and a hint of Gamay's peachiness. — 11 years ago

A hot nose leads into the bold structure you'd expect from a ps, with the loveliest dark-fruits-in-rich-cream finish you could ever imagine. — 9 years ago

Found this in a farm shop not far from Lodi: I love stumbling upon unexpected bottles like this. 100% Petite Sirah, upfront fruits, with substantial oak and tannins. High quality, ageworthy, and California at its least commercial and predictable best. — 11 years ago

Harney Lane is arguably one of the more refined of the Lodi wines. If you desire a Zin that is more Napa-esque, look no further. If you want a classic fruit forward Lodi Zin, maybe check out M2. — 10 years ago

Always have enjoyed the wines of M2. This one from a vineyard in Amador doesn't disappoint. — 11 years ago
