Great wine co. Thought I’d give it a shot.

Smells like cinnamon stick in a mulled wine.
Definitely.Mourvèdre driven, with the candied like fruit cubes of red and yellow. A good and classic Cali mouthfeel, fresh, clean. An easy going blend, and not that usual hotel Cali style for the price. Weighty, yet not too weighty, and a dance of lively kumquat acidity and hints of oak tannin.

Love it as an accompaniment to the variety of Japanese food on the table. Does an elegant lilty dance across the palate with vibrant juicy dark berry and savory minerality.

I cannot say enough about this ridiculous value. Super old vines in the blend, smooth and complex, $25 bucks. Tastes like more!

petillance on a gsm red? Wasn’t offensive, just fresh. Turned out to be a great pizza travel wine!

Stars out with austere aromatics. Subtle aromas. Again sophisticated flavors that funk and fruit play together nicely. Feral finish $25

EZ drinkin'. Light and easy. Good for the summer patio if slightly chilled.

Rhone blend via Cali: juicy version & very very seductive. Really surprising. Nose just crushed violets & cherries, could have been a modern beaujo
