An always impressive effort, this Bordeaux style blend never disappoints. This vintage is par for the course- a big wine, with thick chewy tannins and rich mocha cherry flavors. The lingering finish is lice aniseed pop rocks on the tongue. — 8 years ago

Very akin to the warm santa inez sunshine - pleasant and bright on the pallet, but somewhat lacking depth and complexity. Cherry and tobacco — 9 years ago

Big bold Rhone red with a touch of earth and black berry its viscosity fills your pallet muting the high alcohol. This is a smooth winner that deserves to be in your collection. Enjoy — 10 years ago

Cut reeds, and oats, dried moss, apple blossom, big whiff of graphite!! Plummy and peppery, with a red currant streak beneath cinnamon and light cedar. Real terroir in a New World offering with the graphite, and a mineral core that won't quit! — 10 years ago

Free sample at the grocery store was surprisingly good. Enjoyed a bottle at home with smoked pork loin. Well balanced tannins and fruit. Not a particularly big Cabernet, but substantial enough. I'll look for it again. — 10 years ago

Feather is 100% Cabernet. This is made in coordination with Randy Dunn. On the nose, dark, lightly spiced currants. Black oil, loamy soils, black licorice and fresh floral bouquet. On the palate, the mouthfeel is thick & rich. There's a good presence of wood shaving. Rich, ripe blackberries, dark cherries, candied black plum, plum, black raspberries, loamy soils, dark rich moist earth, leather, tobacco, spice-box, nutmeg, clove, cinnamon, vanilla, black licorice, violets and fresh red florals. Acidity is round and mouthwatering. The structure is big. The tension perfect as is the balance of fruit and earth. This is definitely a Parker wine. It's so easy to drink young, yet will cellar 10-15 years nicely. Photos of the tasting rooms hand blown glass lighting...lit up. The Feather artwork and the famous Boushey vineyard in Yakima Valley — 8 years ago

I poured this through the Andre Lorent Vinluxe Aerator and wow this wine opened up! The tannins are incredibly soft and smooth: big up to malolactic fermentation. Gentle gooseberry, cassis. — 10 years ago

2012. 40% each Tinta Roriz (Tempranillo) and Touriga Franca (Malbec/Merlot - often used in port). $15.
Since Portugal is going to be the next Chile, decided to give a couple inexpensive wines a try.
Nicely surprised - Smokey and deep cheery. Not complex, and rather light. But a nice wine just for sitting about, large groups, or when you don't want to pop a Big Boy of your collection.
14% ABV.
The smokiness was a really nice surprise. — 10 years ago

Everyone needs mt Etna wines in their collection (Sicily). Some can be big, but most are subtle, elegant, and go well with a very wide array of foods. This one is explosive in flavor but isn't over-extracted in the least. I now have several favorite Mt Etna wines- lets hope the volcano doesn't ruin all the vines — 13 years ago
