Wow, old school perfection! California wine from a forgotten age. Pure Italian-American greatness. Reminds me of the wine my childhood landlord would make from the vines that grew behind our house just upstate from NYC. Dark fruits abundant, soft acidity and tanins, nice touch of oak, without obscuring the graps as so many California wineries are obsessed with doing for some reason these days. Found this at a random liquor store on a road trip, will seek it out now. Even better than the Cribari Chianti or Coppola Rosso, which were my previous favorite in this genre, the wonderfully underappreciated "backyard" wine... — 7 years ago

Similar to my last review of this vintage, except it's smoother after another year. Very good with Elissa's slightly spicy burgers (ate in backyard). Finish seems slightly more acidic than I remember. — 8 years ago

I adore this wine, and Backyard has the good nature to have it by the glass. Fresh green pepper and strawberry aromas; crisp linen; roundness and heft as well. Lots of acid, and lots of finesse. I've been wanting this wine with fervor lately! — 10 years ago

Talk about bang for buck—juicy, fruity, floral delight. Pairs nicely with being baked in your backyard eating rich food in fall air. 🎉🕺🏽 — 7 years ago

Man, I just love this wine. I'm not gunna deep dive it, I'll just tell you this - if you're looking for something to accompany your next picnic or barbecue with friends, make sure you have a bottle (or three) of this. Juicy, tangy red fruit, bright acid, refreshing with a chill on it.. it's Bojo from California with Italian grapes.... and I'm in love. A backyard guzzler if ever there was one. — 8 years ago

Who loves pouilly fume? This guy! Grass, rocks, like I'm eating the backyard. Citrus and refreshingly tart. Essential pouilly fume. — 9 years ago

A deep, rich palate of Santa Rosa plum. We had that tree in our backyard, so I know Santa Rosa plum. :) red apple skin, a tart salty minerality, and lengthy finish. Quite delicious. Great for drinking now, but interested in how this will age. — 10 years ago

Sweet Cream/Butter on the nose, with a hint of PEAR that carries through to the palate. Very low acidity, with SILKY smooth tannins! Very nice white- aged and kept well since '09.... Tastes like grapes from my own backyard (; — 12 years ago

Deep red garnet in color. Big bosomy nose of red fruit and fig. Full mouthfeel. Balsamic cherries and red apple peel on the palate. Medium plus acidity puts it squarely in the food-friendly column. Piemontese fare, American lamb, or a lighter cut of steak (veal perhaps). And all this right in my backyard! — 10 years ago
