Banshee doesn't just make solid, approachable wines, but also makes of these interesting weirdos like this little guy. I can only imagine when they cracked into this barrel of wine at whatever other winery they bought it from... It tastes like a standard buttery chardonnay where something went awry - to fantastic results! Some oxidation like character with black walnut mixes here with cream and ripe, buttery apple flavors. Very strong and powerful. Cool wine from a cool winery. — 11 years ago

We toast to William Abramsky the owner or Crossroads Wine Store. I purchased this for $3.99 and it is an amazing dessert wine. We miss you Willie. Hugs and kisses to you Robin and Stuart Pigott. — 13 years ago

Really interesting. Smells like port, curious to see actual RS. Paired perfectly with a black walnut milk sauce — 12 years ago

Beautifully aromatic with cherry vanilla and smoky wood notes with hints of walnut and layers of dried spices. Lovely texture and supple sexy palate of black cherry and bright acidity and soft ripe tannins. Yummy stuff here. — 12 years ago

Reddish purple in the glass with aromas of cinnamon, cola nut and strawberries. Fresh and juicy with great acidity; the front palate hits with black cherry, tart cranberry and more baking spices. The mid palate carries some woody, earthy notes that finish with black tea, porcini mushrooms and fine grained, silky tannins. — 12 years ago
