Expected to like this more than I did... it's got some ripe fruit juiciness and light tannins, as one might expect of a bottle from this appellation at this price point. The nose is a tad earthy and toasty but on the palette, it's simpler and woodier (hehe, she said wood) than I thought it would be. Much tastier with a slice of foot-stinky cheese. (Don't ask what the cheese was, my date left it here after making me breakfast this morning and he tossed the label). #côtesduwhat #traderjoes #cheesewine #coravin — 8 years ago
This is one of those few (and I do mean few) wines where it tastes better with #coravin than #uncorked With Coravin it has a lovely bouquet full of white flowers, citrus and hints of oak. Uncorked it just gets all acidic and looses the delicate complexity. Still, that being said...it is one of the better white #Rioja that I have tried and I’ve tried plenty. Reasonably priced. #macabeo #macabeu #viura #garnachablanca #grenacheblanc #malvasia — 4 years ago
Holding on, this is in a half-bottle 3/8 but is delicious. First with #coravin it was just okay, but decanted it sang. Delicious. #lalandedepomerol #pomerol — 5 years ago
A tad sour for my taste...over the hill already? ⛰ Update: Improved immensely after breathing in glass and accessing with #coravin a few days later. — 8 years ago
A year & half after first #coravin this bottle was in a great place! Glad I heeded my own advice for once and waited! Great blend of terroir, fruit and acidity. #burgundythursday — 7 years ago

The #coravin works. This was punctured in 2014 and hasn’t budged. A 15.2 full-bodied CA experience. — 4 years ago
