drinking at courtney’s for her birthday but can’t find her on here so that’s lame. — 4 years ago
When first opened it was generic and lame but with an hour it is really turning into something special. Beautiful nose (albeit showing a lot of vanilla and oak) but with Bolgheri class. Saline, red cherry and cola followed by mild dill. It is a beautifully crafted wine that needs time to show itself. I would love to see this in 10 years. Modern and seriously well built.

Perfect rose, plenty of flavor, round barn/dairy nose. Totally judged it as lame from label— my bad! Love it ! — 4 years ago
The label is lame, but unsurprisingly that had no impact on the actual wine! Very nice citrus aroma with lots of grapefruit. Strong acidity and just sweet enough. Great for pizza night, but could handle something more complex. — 6 years ago
Anyone who thinks Pinot Gris is a lame apple-flavored substitute for white wine needs to try this. Very fragrant with aromas of peaches, apricots, pear, petrol, and to no one's surprise, calcareous minerals. Background notes of baking spices and honey. Oily, acidic finish characteristic of Alsatian whites. It's also unfair to rate this against the world's finest Rieslings and Chardonnays, so I completely disagree with those who give it a mere 89-91. I also think with age, this would skyrocket to a 95+ wine. — 3 years ago
Bandol: pink or white.
It’s a slight culture shock as a moron gringo in the South of France when wines by the glass are identified not by producer or even by grape but simply by place. Bandol didn’t mean much to me as a place, I drove through it en route to Toulon from Marseille but that was about it. Probably it was the fact that it was a vague homonym for bandit drew me to it — which is admittedly kind of lame, but the wine seemed to deliver. Any more than the progeny of any other Mediterranean town would have? Je ne sais pas. But this wine right here is a phenomenal rosé.
50% Mourvèdre, 40% Cinsault, 10% Grenache from Bandol. — 5 years ago
