Juicy acidity, lots of tart fruit, minimal tannin, intense purple floral aromatics. Their 2014s were really good.

Wish I had more bottles of this! Perfect acidity, less fruity from some aging, some minerals, and perfect tannins. Needed to breath. Perfect!

Black olives, dark cherries, a touch of the Atlantic salinity, a pleasant mustiness & a hint of vanilla on the finish. Overall, worth the wait. Will surely miss this wine!

Fantastic North Fork Red Blend of Cab Franc (50%), Merlot (25%) and Petite Verdot (25%). Black olive tapenade, dark cherries and saline on nose and pallet. A wonderful “musty” aroma from beginning to end. Hint of dark chocolate on the finish. Sorry that this winery moved to Texas.

Dark fruits. Deep red. Low tannins. Acidic. Yeast fermentation. Delicious. Cabernet Franc, Malbec and Petit Verdot.
