Really like this -not too overwhelming. A little spicy. — 6 years ago
This stuff was absolutely amazing. Like, a baby SQN, and not near the price. Certified organic, and owned by two Dallas natives!
A blend of 2 great vineyards: Paderewksi (which is used in some of the Saxum wines), and Catapult.

2019 edition, Campbeltown used whisky drawn from both Port casks and rum casks - 45% came from Port casks while the remaining 55% was drawn from rum casks. Distillery's note: "Nose: A delightful fruitiness bursts through; watermelon, strawberry laces, brambles and blueberries followed by crushed vanilla pods and glazed cherries. Taste: Chocolate covered oranges and Caramel shortcake! Deliciously full bodied, with tropical fruit squash, gingerbread and dried mango. Finish: A captivating Campbeltown Malt; sea salt, oily and fruity. Lemon sherbet, whipped cream, apple peel and salted pretzels complete this beautiful dram!" — 6 years ago
Light and bright on the palette, hints of apple and a mineral finish, very smooth, creamy bubbles. Crafted with organic grapes, its breaths of things fresh and green......a keeper! — 6 years ago
Grande. Cuerpo de hombre en un vino de 3 años. Muy intenso, rojo brillante con tonos oscuros. — 7 years ago
Bra balans mellan frukt, krydda och fat. En del mineralitet och något eldig. Hade behövt vila ett par år till för tanninerna. — 8 years ago
This wine is still drinking young notwithstanding its 21 year age. Tannins are still tight but the wine is racy and elegant. It evolved significantly over an hour and a half period and became less austere. A refreshing level of acidity is present but I would wait at least another 5 years before sampling again. — 9 years ago

Whatever words I would use to describe how amazing the 96 was with our Prime Rib Roast last night would simply fall short & never do it justice.
The evolution that took place in this bottle after 21 years was never conceived by anyone tasting it upon release or young. It has made a epic leap and simply heaven on the palate.
Oh...as a friend of mine was always fond of saying...”The Prime Rib Roast didn’t suck either!”
I wanna do this again real soon. OMG!!!
Still processes me this morning.

Raisins and leather on the nose. Slightly sweet. Taste begins sweet and caramel; very full. Slightly alcohol forward. Dries out late with hints of oak and smoke. As someone else said, it's like the offspring of bourbon and rum. — 6 years ago
Rich amber color. Luscious red fruits, licorice, honey, and cardamom in the nose. Deeper flavors on the palate, with very rich mouthfeel and hints of light smoke. Luxurious finish. Nice to be tasting some Japanese whisky again after a dry spell in California! — 7 years ago
Brilliant stuff, first time with this one but a real winner, round full flavour with a little fizz in the mouth — 8 years ago

2016. Solid pinotage. Lots of secondary flavors like meat, game, and raisin even though the wine is relatively young. — 5 years ago
