Fabulous wine!! Totally through me off in a blind tasting. Lots of bright fruit coming through with. Great balance of oak and tannins. A wonderful wine to taste with @Stephen Dodd, @John Brenton Dodd and @Daniel Kozaczuk — 8 years ago
Bright and pure. Nice acidity. Clean with minerality, the fruit takes a back seat. — 9 years ago
We love Chateauneuf du pape and this is an amazing pretender and awesome value. Paid $20 at Binnys. Love it! Going to look for it every time we go there — 10 years ago

Can't believe I've held on to this treasure for so long! Cedar and sandalwood on the nose. Silky with a bright and savory--almost vegetal--finish. Perfect with filet and steak-house style garlicky creamed spinach. These grapes were picked when I was still in high school! — 8 years ago

2000 vintage. Deep ruby, edging to deep garnet around the rim, very bright. Plush on the nose. The black cassis notes from the Cab and the violets from the Cab Franc are very noticeable. The wine is developing with huge sweet spice, vanilla, smoke and leather. There's a bovril, meaty note here that's very attractive. On the palate, medium acidity, high tannin - grippy, but not coarse; well integrated. Alcohol is 13% and unobtrusive. Good concentration. Fruit is riper on palate than in the mouth, and a distinctive dark chocolate and cinnamon note. The finish is long and attractive. Hard to imagine this wine drinking any better from here. — 10 years ago
This is the Pinot noir, but new to this app and don't know how to change. Any suggestions? Nice bright acidity to this wine by the way — 11 years ago

Still bold fruit with strong tannin. Color still bright chokecherry. Lengthy plum finish. Would be excellent with robust foods. We just sipped on its own. — 10 years ago
Great fruit, still bright and perfect for drinking right now. Could still do with 2-3 more. — 11 years ago
Ripe raspberry aromas layered with notes of red cherry and silky finish. Smooth! — 13 years ago
