Knockout pairing for Osso Bucco with cauliflower rice! Absolutely perfect. Fruit forward nose after a LOT of breathing time, crushed strawberries, with notes of olives, tar with beautiful spice notes. Medium bodied, gripping but not “clutching” tannins, there’s prominent acidity, dry, bright spice, with smokiness olive juice, and cigar smoke to the finish. Begs for food, and with food, it delivers. — 23 days ago
Prominent Riesling nose, Concorde white grape juice, slight lemon hints, wet stone, and maybe a hint of apricot and underripe pear, and this has been open a week! Beautiful Crystal color, with hints of green and gold in the middle, medium to light body, with a prominent palate, and notes of crisp green apple, green pear, and underripe lemon. Great pairing for spring rolls! — a month ago
Slightly salty nose, with just light hints of crisp apple, and a very light, clear, slightly green hue. Very fine, tight little bubbles, with a prominent flavor of green apple, a lively acidity of light lemon, maybe some hints of honeydew, and a slight stony minerality, but not overly dry, with a finish that lingers with notes of dry apricot. Overall, very nice, fresh, and accessible, and REALLY comes into its own in a spritz! — 2 days ago
Overly silky and oaky for me. Still refined, not TOO big, but more than I expected. Still premier cru chard, but you have to want it, you know? — 22 days ago
Pale, plum juice like color, with a deep cranberry hue towards the center. A surprisingly light body, with candied red fruit on the nose, maybe fruit-roll-up gummies or apricot chew, maybe some hibiscus candy. Spicy palate, with some nice acidic red fruit, cranberry, slightly gripping tannins towards the end, with a very dry, short, slightly mineral finish, with somewhat a refreshing end. Loves a nice chill, easy drinking. I can imagine sitting with a chilled glass of this overlooking the sea. — a month ago
Delicious, easy to drink, light, but opened when it hits the palate and lingers for a WHILE. Doesn’t need food, stands out on its own with beautiful cherry and lighter cranberry notes on a light body. Refined as hell. — 8 days ago
Absolutely perfect pairing for a delicious, complex mole! — 9 days ago
Crisp, but not light bodied. East drinking with a beautiful mineral/fruit balance. 100% will drink again. — 23 days ago
First impression: You can tell it’s from a top producer. It’s very refined and deliberate. Not delicate, but doesn’t hammer you. Velvety, with smooth tannins playin wayyy in the background. Like the bass line in jazz. The nose is there, but it it’s not all THAT bold, with notes of blueberry, dark rose, black cherry, and dark chocolate. Color is a deep red with purple melded in the middle. Surprisingly medium/light body, with light tannins, more to the rim and background but the flavors are surprisingly restrained, like there’s a hole in it. Good, but not great. — a month ago

A perfumed nose of ripe strawberries, dark plums, rose petal, a little cigar smoke and graphite, I haven’t had this since our honeymoon! @Tiva Feltman picked up red meat and pepper as well. Medium bodied with a deep ruby hue, the palate itself is light, but not under-flavored. At 2019 it’s still fresh, with a nicely blended acidity, a hint of some tannin but mostly released, with a peppery tang, and a beautiful blend of both floral and fruit. — 2 days ago
