Very nice expression of Viognier.
Clean honey on the nose almost exclusively. Well balanced with nice mouth feel. Actually good with charcuterie — 11 years ago
Wonderfully light and fresh, but still with a good bit of stuffing. I liked how peppery this was, and the fruit was nicely high-toned. — 13 years ago
Pineapple and crazy apricot! Beautiful nose, a tad light. Light to medium acid. — 10 years ago
Delicious, great stone fruit and acid in this wine, thanks @Booth Hardy — 11 years ago
Great Grenache, on the lighter side as you'd expect. — 11 years ago
Madame of the Chateau was there in the Joanne booth at VinExpo who was charming but this wine just shined even without her presence. Tasted more of Climens in Barsac. Elegant and just grabs your attention...super lengthy finish! — 12 years ago
Red berries and pepper on the nose. Thick bodied and a long, dry finish. Needs some time to decant. Great with spicy, salty food. — 12 years ago
Small productions are so good. So much soul! Still has a long life ahead of it but totally drinkable and enjoyable now. Tannic still hitting but obviously getting softer. — 10 years ago

Amazing balance. — 10 years ago
Very pleasant boutique bottling from a superior vintage featuring a texture of black pepper, black tea, savory and dark cherry. Purchased for low $20s, this producer does small productions beside selling fruits to leading Mendocino producers. Low level of tannin would make this a an easy choice for by-the-glass and for many Pinot fans — 12 years ago
So this picture is of their booth at Vinitaly- but I can't get enough of the col fondo, by destefani. Leesy complexity, subtle citrus. Wish I had a glass right now. — 13 years ago

It is fantastic having such good neighbors. Soma produced by Marita's Vineyards is her fathers winery which produces limited productions and bottle ages much longer than most other Napa wineries. Earth, cedar, eucalyptus, dark cherry, black currants, with a long finish. A classic premium Napa Cab Sauv. — 10 years ago
