Sorrel, raspberry, blackberry, brown sugar, slight lavender smell, color is dark purple not clear, taste is acidic, jammy, with a good tannin base hidden by sugars, the acid mixes well with the jam and greats a woody metallic fruity finish — 6 years ago
Last winery on day two in Sonoma was Troika Wines with Jeff, Noel and Ari. Last wine was their Mount Veeder Merlot.
Deep ruby red. Lush nose with cinnamon, violets, dark berries, jasmine and a little bit of bramble too. Medium tannins (6.5/10) and a medium plus body. A bit earthy on the palate with some dark plums, blackberries and sweet spices. Dry medium plus to long finish. Drink till 2024. (91+)
$$ - Tasted at the winery with Noel, Jeff and Ari. Release price is $50.00. — 7 years ago

Magenta color. Threw small amount sediment. Perfumed floral nose of violets. Light to medium bodied. Tart raspberry & cranberry. Super high acidity (?VA) was a detractor for me. Couldn’t tame it with food. — 5 years ago

Nose: rich nose of sweet honey, orange blossom, stone fruit, white rose... The floral component balance very well the fruit one. After flowers, stone fruit comes
Palate: medium body but still very light, good acidity level - nice citrus then flowers note, honey. Drinkable but still complex enough.

Fantastic buy. Aromas of grass, green veggies abound: asparagus, and green bell pepper. Hints of lime, salt, and lemon. Very rounded balance between just the right amount of acidity and citrus on the palate. Great minerality. Almost golden in color. 13% — 4 years ago
