Excellent wine - Syrah shines in both aroma and retro-nasal. — 19 days ago

Really nice cab franc. Light in color but bold medium plus tannic finish. Has some fruit there black cherry and some leather. This could use a couple more years in bottle to mellow the tannins and let the flavor come through but I’m a sucker for bitter and bitey wines so enjoying it as is now. — 5 years ago

A little gassy at first in the nose, but that blew off, brickish color. Black and red fruit, cherries and raspberries. I got the image of an abandoned sawmill, so the oak still shines through. Very integrated tannins, surprising amount of fruit still. This was a bruiser, initially, but it is a light bodied shiraz, now. Aging incredibly well, at least 5 more years, but drink now, for sure. A beautiful wine. Last bottle. — 5 years ago

This came from a special release called La Collection Crayeres Mis En Caves, where Charles Heidsieck released old non vintage champagnes dating back to 1990 and all the way through 2001, alongside a somewhat late disgorged release of their 2000 vintage (this bottle). I opened a bottle of the 2001 MEC (which is a base vintage of 2000) a few weeks ago and it was corked. Thankfully I got a spectacular experience with this 2000!

I was able to enjoy this next to a ‘96 Krug, 15 Henri Giraud and a few other great champagnes. Richly colored in the glass, almost gold like. Distinct aromatics of pencil shavings/sawmill dust, toffee, espresso, and lemon scone. Lots of depth and richness on the palate as expected, but it’s amazingly fresh. Nougat, more lemon pastry notes and plenty of creamy mousse at the finish. In fact, there were a lot of similarities to the ‘96 Krug, but less ginger and slightly less finesse driven. Absolutely delightful! — 3 years ago

Mineral driven, almost gravelly, with some stone fruit and citrus. A bit lighter and less concentrated than some of Red Newt’s best, but still super refreshing and tasty! — 3 years ago

Unique rosé...floral on the nose. I worry there might be some sweetness but the dry bitter super cranberry in the mouth and finish brings it home. I love this winery... — 5 years ago

I see that only one other person on Delectable has had this wine (as of right now) and gave it a horrible rating; and, well, they must have had a corked bottle, because this is quite nice. Whoever you are, I urge you to revisit this wine. — 5 years ago
