Pale lemon with aromas of stone and tropical fruits. Made from 40-year old vines, aged in 100% stainless steel. On the palate flavors of bright lemon citrus with crisp apple and peach notes. This medium-body wine has crisp acidity, good balance and nice mouthfeel, smooth long finish ending with creamy mineral texture. Very Nice! — 5 years ago

100% Sangiovese- terrific and light! — 6 years ago
Great stuff. 2012 vintage. Violets, lilacs, some savory notes of grilled meat. Really good acidity keeps this bright and balances the weight of the dark fruit. Tannins give it good finish — 7 years ago
Beautiful, rich and soft. One of the most supple and gentle Napa Cabs I have tasted.

Last night we opened the Schramsberg Blanc de Blancs Brut Vintage 2017. Méthode Traditionelle, 100% Chardonnay from Napa Valley Calastoga, CA.
On the nose there is lemon, lemon curd, brioche, buttered popcorn and nice minerals.
On the palate there is lemon, lemon custard, almonds, apricote, cream and minerality.
The wine is medium bodied with a crisp, clean, complex mouthfeel, medium+ to high acidity and a long fresh vibrant citrus mineral finish. I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend, please continue staying safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🥂🥂🥂🥂 — 5 years ago
Paleo Rosso is one of the symbols of Bolgheri , and “Paleo” is the common name of a species of grass, which grows wild along the Tuscan Coast; best-known Cab Francs. Deep Ruby with aromas fruit, dried herbs and spice for this 100% Cab Franc. On the palate flavors of blackberry and plum with leather, cacao and herbs. Fine tannins, long finish ending with fruit and earthy character. Nice, tasting sample. — 5 years ago

Had this wine May 17 - 20, 2019. Cloudy garnet red. Medium bodied. Extra dry. Cherry, strawberry, wild pansies and a hint of black pepper. It has a distinct element to it that I have noticed with other Ontario reds that I have not quite been able to put my finger on yet. It was also a little acidic on the finish. I did not, however, notice the earthiness that all the reviews that I have read mentioned. I can understand why this wine received great reviews and was noted as a bench mark for Pinot Noir in Ontario. $34.95 LCBO — 7 years ago
From 6ft, lovely fizz and fruity, good balance with acid and hint of tannens on the end — 5 years ago
A classic. 100% Viura from the Zaconia vineyard, located right outside López de Heredia’s winery in Haro. Fermented in ancient oak vats with indigenous yeasts and aged in used barrels for four years, followed by another 6 years in bottle. Complex nose with oxidative notes. Chamomile, flowers, beeswax, lemon curd. Austere on the mouth, with great acidity and freshness. Long, subtly salty finish. Amazing — 5 years ago
Drinking Remarkably well, for a 2016 cdr. No indication but would presume its 100% Grenache. Good fruit well balanced remarkably drinkable for a 2016. — 6 years ago
Seriously delicious. The most memorable cab franc I have had. — 7 years ago
17/20 (92/100) Развитой, элегантный букет ароматов лайковой кожи, старого варенья из чёрной смородины, сушеной черники, графита, шоколада и морёной древесины. Тельное с высокой кислотностью и довольно интенсивными, гладкими танинами. Гораздо более ягодное во вкусе, чем в аромате. Продолжительное послевкусие. Великолепно! #dfwe2018 — 7 years ago

Damn., I’ve got to go to his house more often!!!!!! All kidding aside., we were celebrating Veronica’s (his beautiful wife) birthday and what a truly special Evening.it was. There’s nothing better than uncorking a special bottle with friends that have become like family.
We love you Veronica!!! And put up with Kirk just because of you🤣😜🤣
