Fantastic build is almost 9yrs old. Sangratino is the star here…the tannins have rounded, yet the acid and mid-palate weight is perfect. Dark chocolate and raspberry/sweet pomp delight. — 7 months ago

A bit of rollercoaster ride…the aromatics throw you what looks like a fastball, however it’s a 2-seam splitter ;) still evaluating…. — 4 years ago

What a fabulous food friendly wine made with time honored Italian techniques from Yadkin Valley soils!! At approximately $20 per, this Shirley has to be one of the best values in North Carolina. Texture and mouth feel rule this vibrant and dark fruit driven gem — 6 years ago

In our binary world- this is a feminine format. Pinot weight and body with East Coast fruit expression. Nice aromatics couple with punchy acidic flow. The type of plummy acid that make the mouthfeel “float” with a grace more impactful than the actual fruit. Compelling, especially with the right cuisine ;) 1 bottle remains - target 2026? 91 pt because it’s NC and relatively weighted — 3 years ago

While the acid edge has dull a bit, this was full of life/flavor: lime & white grapefruit with a honeydew viscous body. The ‘17 is a 92pt version, tho! — 5 years ago

Baby Burg from woods of NW NC, had some polish & elegance — Bourgogne level w/plenty of oak influence, spice, dill, vanilla, toffee and some pear, lemon oil. Just really tasty, vibrant acidity leading to decent finish. QPR out the wazoooooo — 10 months ago
