A beautiful blush pink color, not a very pronounced nose, but a lovely tart tang on the palate, but surprisingly dry, with slight floral delicacy, and notes of passionfruit, underripe strawberry, raspberry, grapefruit, and light hibiscus flower with a zing that lingers long to the end. Perfect pairing with slightly spicy fish. A beautiful, refreshing wine. — 19 hours ago

Really an amazing sparkling wine. Beautiful notes of baked goods on the nose, brioche, with fine delicate bubbles and a delicious, mineral driven dry palate. As good as many blanc de blanc champagnes, for a fraction of the cost. — a month ago

Bold notes of blue flowers, violet, blackberries, plums, piñon, velvet and tobacco. Beautifully tannic, with a spine of lingering spice, rich and acid driven, with notes of dried wood, blood orange, blueberry cobbler, and a surprisingly dry finish with notes of clove and wet earth. Perfect pairing for light to medium spice Mexican food and probably my favorite Syrah. A personal game changer. — 8 days ago

Chilled this burgundy felt restrained, minimal, and one dimensional. As it opened up though, paired with a delicious bouillabaisse, escargot and the best foie gras I’ve ever had, thus started to really come into its own. Medium body, a refined minerality but with delicious notes of crisp apple, baking spice, and an some richer, pastry like notes on the finish, this wine truly came into its own with some warmth and time. Not too rich, not too dry, a perfect balance of crisp fruit, minerality, and baked richness for shellfish dishes with a tomato base. — 24 days ago

Wow, this was really special, unexpected and unique. A Nebbiolo and Cab sav blend from Mexico that started off very delicate, with a refined acidity, and evolved into something smooth, silky and velvety. Bold notes of plums burst forth followed by notes of vanilla, leather and smooth tannins, with a bold nose of velvet, dates, VERY light roses and cigar smoke. The body was medium, but man did this evolve into something unique. — a month ago

Great for hot day drinking, complex, medium body, a surprising golden-peach color, some sweetness throughout, with a nice balance of florals and fruit, with a crisp, apply like finish. — 21 days ago

This was a surprise. The body was lighter than I expected, the nose practically busting with forest floor and dusty ripe red fruits, dusty tannins, but for this meal it paired perfectly. Drank at Arnaud’s in New Orleans. #pinotforpresident — 24 days ago

I don’t know why the rating for this sits so low. It’s definitely semi-sweet, definitely inexpensive, but not at all bad. A very delicate floral nose, with notes of rose petal, with the effervescence of the bubbles only tickling your nose ever so slightly. The palate is definitely on the sweeter side, but then again it’s meant to be a desert wine, or at least a wine that would benefit from the addition of some ice. The flavor reminds me of wild blueberry jam, with a nice gentle fiz and a mouth coating sweetness but on a medium body, with prominent florals and a slight cranberry finish. It’s enjoyable for sure, and a pleasant digestif/dessert. — a month ago
