Hard to beat for the price and all VHR fruit. — 5 months ago
Fresh off the UPS truck, I couldn’t resist trying their new “odds & ends” blend of leftover barrels from four of their single vineyard offerings (Bedrock, Old Hill Ranch, Tedeschi, and Belloni), very fairly priced at $25. It’s already delicious. Deeply fruity nose of great purity, with cracked peppercorn notes. There’s a little sweet, toasted baking spice too. Surprisingly soft on entry, it’s rich and mouthfilling, but there’s some tannin and a nice lightly bitterish note that enlivens the finish. — a month ago

Talk about getting better with age. Enjoyed the ‘09 vintage on Valentine’s Day 2026. 17 years and worth the wait. Deep, dark, luscious with each and every sip. — 3 months ago
