Drinking well. '13 of this isn't for long term cellaring but will develop well over the next couple of years. Black cherry, strawberry, cigar box, forest floor, white button mushroom, pink grapefruit acidity. Good length. — 8 years ago

Wow they are at the top of their game! Super Bourbon — 8 years ago
One of the best bottles of GC Burg I've had. This is in perfect form right now. Showing a perfect intermingled harmony between fruit and tertiary vinous character. Not over oaked at all. Very tart intact red and black cherries with acrid pomegranate and bramble. A kiss of brett with moist, mossy soil like earth including a white button mushroom presence. Dusty stone minerality with a cedar and light pepper finish. This is quite wonderful. I think 99 burgundy is just so spot on to drink now. — 9 years ago
Rediscovered in the pantry.... Left behind by my father, who always enjoys a good bourbon. — 10 years ago
Black tea, marzipan, Madagascar vanilla, suede leather, butterscotch, turbinado syrup. maintains an oiliness and weight on the palate without any ethyl alcohol burn. For many the archetype of single barrels. — 8 years ago
🤤 so elegant, very beautiful wine. Black cherry, crushed roses, graphite, button mushroom, fennel, leather. Energetic acidity, rather feminine tannin, taut but young. Classic Sangiovese character with those rustic edges rounded off. — 8 years ago
Super bright and earthy CF that is so charming to drink. Great weight and density to the fruit. Juicy but not heavy handed. Pure and transparent earthy aromas/flavors. Love the fine and soft tannin profile. Lovely acid. Raspberry and black berry, wet tobacco leaves, violets, button mushrooms, potting soil. — 9 years ago
Subtle hints of juniper with bright citrus notes taking the lead. Aromas of cinnamon, orange peel, and Cascade hops with an off-dry citrus driven palate. Makes for an incredible gin and tonic. — 10 years ago
Lots of apple flavor with mild cinnamon. Smooth and delicious. — 10 years ago
Picked up in Nantes, France. Taste a lot like the 12yr to me which costs about the same but at least you get a full 750mls — 11 years ago
Hello again friends. Simple review tonight. 51% syrah/25% malbec/24% petit verdot. There's purple fruit (boysenberry? black raspberry?) in here. Minerality kicks you in the throat. I hate to admit that because this vineyard is touted as an oyster graveyard, "therefore mineral character, of course..." I did a lit review on minerality in wine and nobody seems to understand it - it's certainly not as simple as calcium in the soil. But this bitch pushes the mineral button for sure. Hell of a deal at $17.49. Opened yesterday and had a glass, refrigerated, absolutely crushed the remainder tonight w/ grilled scallions smothered in romesco. — 12 years ago

Extremely smooth bourbon taste with creamy finish. Sweet liquor. Far less bite than Bailey's (made with Irish whiskey) — 7 years ago
