Love me some Nebbiolo grape. This is a bossman wine. If you're not a bossman, do not bother drinking this. BIG grape and strawberry on the nose. Big strong tannins, like a bull market, but the wine version. — 10 years ago
2012. The rare Spanish grape, Prieto Picudo. This is what the kids in NY and San Francisco are going to be talking about in the next few years. Smells like flowers and 12 berry pie. Big plum fruit, nice acid, incredibly drinkable, you're going to need two bottles if you plan on sharing. — 10 years ago

Is it a rose or is it a white?? Who technically cares!! It is a rare and super delicious varietal. Big aromatic nose of honeydew melon, candied apples, and wet stones with a delightful palate of pear, melon, and lightly charred balsam bbq wood . Dry crisp finish . Awesome wine try it. Great job done with a complicated grape!! — 10 years ago
Chocolatey ripe red fruit—cassis, wild strawberry, notes of thyme and garrigue. Soft round tannins and enough acid to keep it balanced. Big-boned and self- confident, this is another easy-drinking hedonistic fruit-forward wine from Eric Solomon, @Philippe Cambie and Gilles Ferran. Sunny and friendly, it feels like the South of France in a glass... 15% alcohol (though drinks like 13%) Pricier than I'd like for an everyday wine, but at $28 a nice treat! More please... — 10 years ago
Really like this and most Long Flat...crisp nicely tart with a green grape taste — 11 years ago
#2005 #LaGeynale #Cornas #RobertMichel My favorite grape, #Syrah from my favorite region, #NorthernRhone ❤️ The Deep, dark purple/red color seduces you before your lips even touch the glass. "You had me at Hello..." (is what I may have said out loud actually) 😊. This wine is like a tall, sexy, brooding man with all the right moves😗😘. Once you taste it there's really no turning back... Savory, lightly spicy, rustic yet refined at the same time... This is a very unique and gorgeous bottle of wine. Unlike any other Cornas I have tried. Touch of funk dancing gracefully with the big tannins and perfectly round dark fruit... Such a smooth ride. I feel sorry for any other wine trying to win you over on the same night as him... & he will only get better with age👌😉 #Betony restaurant #ThirstyThursday #HappyGirl #Cheers 🍴🍷 — 10 years ago
2013 Verso Salento Rosso. Big and fruit forward. Chewy but soft grape skin tannins that aren't astringent. Paired perfectly with jalapeño and bacon wrapped doves with bacon jam sauce. — 11 years ago

Banyan is a label belonging to Hobo Wine Co meant to introduce a line of wines that pair more friendly with Asian cuisine. Gewürtztraminer (spicy Traminer) is a pink grape that makes an aromatic, opulent fruity wine. Expect the Monterey county fruit to provide more texture and ripeness than its Germanic counterparts.
