Much more full bodied than I expect from a Beaujolais. Blackberries and dark fruits initially and a little funky and dry at the end. Perfect with polenta and roasted mushrooms — 5 years ago
Fresh and clean, pairs well with Riverdale — 6 years ago
A fantastic wine. Crunchy fruit, peppery spice, and some lovely dry, mellow tannins. Giving the best natty guys from Europe a run for it. — 6 years ago

Mellow, buttery - like someone with blue eyes — 5 years ago
Very Beaujolais-like. Lots of juicy pomegranate, blueberry, cranberry, and a bit of grape. Rose and violet potpourri, vintage lipstick, crushed oyster shell minerality. Bright, lifted, and very pretty with subtle chalky tannins. (This review is for the 2019 Iruai Shasta-Cascade) — 5 years ago

Round, lots of lime, very fruity when properly cooled. — 6 years ago
Loved the description on the website saying “It's the wild and mysterious light-bodied red that makes Pinot Noir taste like a Republican.” So true. Light chillable red. Cherry blood orange acidity hint of pepper and wet stones. No “funk” here just subtle earthy delight. — 6 years ago
Initially I smelled a wilting rose and after reading other reviewed I recognized the Smokey smell. The body is light and went well with chicken breasts with capers. — 7 years ago

Slight corkage on the nose, but very slight. Earthy. Still tasted fine. Earthy, some puckering tannins, deep and dark. Blackberry. But as it sits the corkage is effecting the wine. So we better drink it fast. A mission I can complete. I’ll get another because I think this wine.is better than this bottle. And 13.99 makes it a great value. — 6 years ago

Crisp nose of unripe pear, honey and lime on the nose. Baked honey crisp apple, white flower, slight petrol on the palate. Lovely minerality and sense of terroir in this wine. — 5 years ago
