Great blackberry, black cherry and spice flavors. Classic dry creek Zinfandel — 9 years ago
Really impressed with this wine. For the vintage (2010) it was remarkably dark and rich but it has so much more than just raw power. The attack note on the nose is that unmistakable Oregon Pinot "funk" that's sort of a blend of lily flower and inner tube rubber. Actually, there's so many different sorts of rich flower notes, it's a bit like that smell of walking in to a florist's shop. Mouthfeel is softly gripping and the acid on the back end really gets the mouth watering.
Later, some licorice notes come out and maybe even a little cola.
All in all very complex, interesting and thought provoking. Still plenty of life left in that bottle. Recommended. — 9 years ago

Delicious wine. Fruity flavors, definitely fruity smells but also with light hint of floral accents. In my opinion great as a desert or to pair with light meals like salads, turkey... Etc. — 11 years ago

Name: fermier cuvée Japon
Cépage: Yamabudou/
Vivid red purple to black color.
Scents was started of vanilla, butter toast, red lily, rose, and cherry. Then spicy nuance of cinnamon, chocolate, ink and black pepper made it complex and exotic.
Powerful vibrant acidity and delicate sweetness, smooth tannin.
Very interesting taste!
