My first tasting of the latest vintage. White floral and dried citrus peel aromas. Back label promises flavors of preserved lemon, key lime and thyme. Key lime was prominent with some herb (probably thyme) and tangerine pith. I’m not huge on preserved lemon but then I’m not all that familiar with it in dining, just a few Moroccan and Italian entrees I’ve had using it. So maybe it’s there; I just don’t picture it in my mind’s eye. There is a mineral and lactic-like finish with length in the citrus flavors. Some skin astringency as well, more becoming than not. I like the acidity level, forward but not overpowering. Great balance here overall. Always a pleasurable pour, this one, from vintage to vintage. — 9 days ago

Strawberry and raspberry, light enough to crush all summer, sturdy enough to hold up to some medium heavy grilled food. Dig this producer and the wine didn’t disappoint. — 3 months ago

2022 vintage. Fave of the three new 2022 red releases-Côte A Côte, Optimus Estate Estate Reserve-and also the most affordable. 3.11.26. — 6 months ago

Ruby with elegant red fruit aromas and gentle floral spice, aged for 10 months in French oak. On the palate flavors of cherry and cranberry with notes of tea, herb pepper with wet stone notes. Soft tannins on a long finish ending with fruit, spice and earthy mineral notes. Very Nice! — 8 months ago

Fantastic smoothly aged dry Riesling. Very light petrol aromas but flowery and a lightly fruity. Medium body, well balanced acidity, bright and perfect for a hot and romantic summer night. — 2 months ago

Nice wine. Last had 2 years ago and probably should have let this one go a bit further but so it goes. Decanted for 2 hours which was the right call. Quite a bit of structure with some nice red fruit mixed with soy and earth. Long finish, with medium minus tannins and good acid. Would be one to try in 5-10 years. — 9 months ago
