Northern Rhone, Shiraz/Vio. Blind I picked this as new world, Shiraz/gewurtz blend, something like Ochota Barrels may do. — 10 years ago

A six year old Vio that is still showing major youth. Still has a stoney grey straw hue. Bursting with peach and dry field flowers. Bright on attack and mid but has a beautiful touch of roundness and weight on finish that lingers dry stone. Man, quenching my thirst on this hot Ojai day. — 10 years ago

05 vintage of Roussanne/Viognier. Unctuous, absurdly rich, and bizarrely balanced for all that. — 11 years ago

One of my favorites. Christophe Paubert has completely revived this program. Bright, floral, zippy. Not a goopy, bubble-gum, California Vio. I drink too much of this in the summertime. — 12 years ago

From a micro-producer with tiny production. Super delicious! Smooth and mellow but with deep, well-rounded tannins. Tea, tar, roses, prune, cola, mushrooms. A bargain for this vintage and quality. From Flatiron Wines. — 9 years ago

I love Claudio Ancarani's wines across the board, but this one tops them all. I think it could be blinded as Recioto di Valpolicella from a top producer. Incredible dessert wine for an even more incredible price. Stewed cherries, tobacco, raisins. — 11 years ago
