More fruit than I like (just personally), it has some mossy yeasty compartments where the fun stuff hides.

Christmas crimson, cranberry, strawberry melon, minty Douglas fir and brioche.

Has some umph. Concentrated bitter sweet back and forth that's all play. — 7 days ago

Where the cool kids and the somms can get along. Wildly balanced in a harmony we can all agree upon. Potpourri of fresh fleshy cherry, stems, full of green pine and acetone and crystalized Luden cough drops, residues of mint, meat and blood.

Texture like crushed velvet. Damn soft, subtle cush crunch. — a month ago

In Texas we take breaks from red wine in chunks of 6 months. When you're out of practice, this is a great return ticket to Pinotland. Uncomplex, a reminder of the generosity and joy in a 56 degree pour.

Enveloping cherries and flecks of shaved cedar, bright. Fresh, vibrant, collected. — 2 months ago

On the tail end of its prime window, but still hitting. Like a mealy yellow apple, not quite browned. Has cider notes but plenty of acid in the mouth for vibrancy. Laser lemon cleaner with toasted oak becomes candied kumquat and sweet clementine.

Theres a lot of beautiful weight and texture and raw power that comes out to play as you let it warm. — 3 months ago

Goes like this. Copper penny, metallic, woolly wet blanket. Brightens with vanilla and coconut oak creme brulee. Lands on beautiful bruised apples and bartlett pear, lingering lemon oil.


Oxidized and youthful, and overall nice, not excellent. — 14 days ago

Has some fight, bite, and spice. Dark persona, firmly structured with a core of sandy salinity, a little weight and tannic tension. Wild sour green strawberries, unripe raspberries, cedar lining.

Reserved, but punchy. — a month ago

Smoothed and softened by now. Muted strawberry and melon accents with herbs on the periphery.

Faded, but weighty, concentrated, a little heat with a long goodbye. — 3 months ago

Killer Cava - basket of bread, sweet apples, fennel, mint, and berry aura hovering.

Bone dry with some bite and even though it dissipates, personality fills the spaces between the bubbles. — 22 days ago

Pours maroon, feels purple velvet.

Unashamed acetone, like the best nail polish and wild jungle juice. Dark plums and raspberries with a sweet midnight pruney core.

Sweet and tart and pulpy and a good ride if you raised your hand and signed the waiver. — a month ago

Got me thinking what was I was doing the day these grapes were picked...napping, punching play-dough, sipping Mott's, laughing apple juice breathe.

This is so good and so alive in '24. Sweet and balanced, enveloped in deep red delicious apples, a thick crisp skin, slathered head to toe in honey, a vein of brushed sage and crunchy topping of burnt popcorn kernels.

Wine really is the matador of time. — 3 months ago
