Full bodied deep flavors — 7 years ago
This one-off Cuvée from the boutique Robert Craig winery which focuses on mountain appellations in Napa is 50% Spring Mountain CS and 50% Howell Mountain Zinfandel (same juice that goes into the Turley Zin) aged 12 months in French Oak, 35% new. Gentle nose of dark fruits, green and sweet bell pepper, coffee, herbs, slight scent of perfume. Silky and savory on the palate with refreshing acidity. Bitter herbal finish. This wine is supple and delicious. And a hell of a deal at $20! — 8 years ago

A bit mild and smooth. Bold w a bit of spice. Not my preference but for what it is it's authentic to its flavor profile. — 10 years ago

Full-bodied with good tannins; plum, blackberries, currants, some spice. Excellent with filet. — 7 years ago
Smelled of deep, rich herbal earth. Like a warm summer afternoon hiking in the foothills of Appalachia. The taste was so starkly different to be unrecognizable. Butter, like a steak basted in butter. Fruit was an afterthought, but the entire thing was still big and bold and tricks your senses. Like dating a red headed girl. — 8 years ago

Love this wine. Had with snapper device type dish at lenoir restaurant in austin. Crisp. Pear flavor. Light but not too light. Tom said this is a really food wine. 13 per glass 52 per bottle — 7 years ago
Delayed getting out of Austin toThe Keys and found this bottle at Vino Volo. Thanks @Jim Trobaugh @Mike R for the review which prompted me to buy! — 8 years ago
Just released. Opaque purple to rim. Toasted oak, cassis and leather with grippy dusty tannins. Dark fruit balanced with great structure. Finish goes on for a minute. Will be interesting to see the evolution of this. — 9 years ago

For me, this is as close to perfect a Pinot Noir as there is: a subtle nose of cherry and earth, a soft and supple mouth feel with cherry, cranberry and rose petals with a hint of forest floor on the palate. Complex, beautiful, just wonderful. Unfortunately, the current 2012 vintage under his new Camlow Cellars label (which we just picked up last weekend) is the last year he'll be working with Keefer Ranch fruit, but winemaker Craig Strehlow has consistently nailed it for me. We'll definitely try the new juice--also from Green Valley--when it's ready. *fingers crossed* — 10 years ago
