Love a screw top!
Dark, opaque ruby color.
On the nose it's woodsy, earthy, and very berry prominent. Cherry primarily, VERY reminiscent of the heart-shaped cherry lolipops from Valentine's day in grade school.
On the palate, lots of character and a developing finish which brings out tannins that offer a savory chew.
Not as sweet and fruity as it smells. — 2 years ago

On Princess Sun doing the special Caymus Wine dinner. This is something that I’ve not seen before. An ok wine. Not sure of the price point. This is a blend of Zinfandel and Syrah. — 2 months ago

Flashback 20+ years ago to the Wine Library in New Jersey. Walking with my 14-year-old niece she was drawn to a double magnum sitting in the corner of the cold room. She exclaimed, “ Uncle Ira , that is the biggest bottle of wine I have ever seen.” Excited by her enthusiasm I told her I would buy it and we would drink it at her wedding. That opportunity presented itself this weekend. I decided this was best consumed at the rehearsal dinner. As one would expect the bottle drew its share of oohs & aahs. The cork was pristine. I should have decanted as the bottle had a ton of sediment. On the nose; earth, hints of leather, and tobacco. In the mouth a textbook example of an aged California Bordeaux blend. Concentrated flavors of red and dark fruit, herbs, vanilla, and graphite flow into a stunning finish that still has a tannic structure. An elegant and seamless wine that has years of life remaining . I have been fortunate to taste wines that could bring you to tears. This bottle brought me to tears before a drop of wine touched my lips — 4 years ago

Shared this at a hotel bar with a friend. Love the label with the birds. Too bad no cardinal on it. My friend has an affinity for that bird. Typical Williamette valley Pinot. We enjoyed it. Much better to drink this than the per glass offerings. — a year ago

Thank you so much to Holly at The Whitby for sharing this pick! Very pleasant to talk with and a wonderfully versatile palate.
I received for Xmas one of those nice sunlight alarm clocks that goes off with chirping birds in the morning and weirdly that’s what I thought of when I took the first sip of this. Acidic but not in a way that makes you want to throw it out the window. A nice little wake up call (but for the evening! not the morning) with just a nice lil fruity kick to make it pleasant for sipping.
A reminder that I’d really like to try more orange wines for the sake of simply Understanding. — 4 years ago
