When you tell your wife to open anything I’ll be back from the store. She picks the inaugural vintage of a 7 year vertical you have been collecting. And it’s the last bottle. PS she usually hates this wine. Shocked and saddened that it was the last but so stoked to be drinking it tonight!!! Cheers! — 8 days ago

Beautiful cab franc from Walla Walla grapes. Distinct and different than any Chinon or other Loire Valley that I can remember. Solid fruit and not over extracted. Nice lengthy finish with sturdy acidity. Not soft. Recommended! — 21 days ago

First encounter with Hsing. Philly cheesesteak. Beautiful nose of sage dark fruits violets. Lively texture. Almost old world. Turns out to be part of series AA and old bottle of it’s kind but with other vineyards. — a day ago

The nose is different than a Cabernet Savignon but the mouth feel is velvet and the finish smooth. There is some cassis with leather and dark fruit. — 2 days ago

Dark Ruby with aromas of ripe berry fruit with cigar box spice notes. On the palate cherry, plum and strawberry with tobacco and cacao notes with vanilla spice. Dusty tannins, long toasty finish ending with mineral notes. Tasting Sample! — 7 days ago

Almost overwhelmingly mineral, displaying the smoky campfire embers and rich loamy scents I associate with Walla Walla, along with sandalwood and very sappy cherry-ooze fruit. Dark and minerally on the palate: very low-toned flavors fill the mouth. Fair amount of medium-soft tannin, and a very long, low acid finish that has an echo of port-like fruit and the very tail end. Very complex and idiosyncratic wine. — 19 days ago

Heavy. Tannic. Structured. Unforgiving out of the bottle but then opened up after about 2 hours of airtime and tail end of dinner. Still a big boy. — 3 days ago
