A generous friend opened this at a small gathering and I think I was the only person there who even knew what it was. This was my first time drinking the “Clos du Temple”. The wine pours a pale pink-gold color with no signs of sediment or gas. On the nose, stone fruits and forest berries; apricots, peaches and strawberries. There’s also honeysuckle and stony minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with no tannins. Acid is medium+. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long, fresh and juicy. There’s a luxurious texture to this wine. Well done, if not exactly soul stirring. I guess only three cases of this were allocated to the state. — a year ago

Sublime. One of the most delicious wines I’ve had in years. Silky and perfumed, earthy and fruity; California power melded with Old World sophistication. Enjoyed the 2007 vintage with my wife Dreama at kaiseki temple Hayato in LA, part of my ongoing days long birthday celebration. A privilege and a pleasure. — 8 months ago

Plush is really the only word needed to describe this wine. I tasted this wine over the course of three days and every day it got better. Plush elegance if that could be a thing. No overly jammy with this one.

15.1% ABV, but doesn’t come across that high. This wine gives you ripe fruit and silky mouthfeel.

This wine pairs well with Stone Temple Pilots - Plush. — 2 years ago

Solid, flavorful California Cab, delivering what It expected. Unfortunately it was up against well-aged Chateau Lafite Rothschild and Chateau Margaux. Sorry Stag’s Leap Cask 23, I love ya, but you’re just not in the same league. Enjoyed the 2012 vintage at the Temple of Beef, Totoraku in Beverly Hills. — a year ago

BYOB event for the Commanderie des Costes du Rhône at Temple Court. Light in color but a fragrant nose with good acidity and tertiary flavors on the palate. Enjoyed with roasted duck breast. — a year ago

Dusty patina (like walking through a Japanese temple) pomegranate and cranberry. Mixed white and black peppercorns. Uplifting acid (in a good way) that super complements food. TBL — 2 years ago
