Mine too! I still carry it. I failed to mention I first tasted this at the winery in 2008. The cork was destroyed so I was worried but wow.

First time I've had a charbono. I had good fruit and balance; good all by itself. Reminded me of another wine, but I couldn't place it. Have to get another to figure it out — 9 years ago

Great charbono, 13.9% alcohol with great balance. Somehow they kept the tannins in check, this went great with prime sirloin steaks on the grill. — 10 years ago

Zentner Vineyard Charbono 2012

Baked cherry pie, cranberries, sour cherries, smoke. A bit fruit forward but bright tangy acidity balances the palate. Good with anything tomato & basil. — 8 years ago

First ever Charbono and still figuring out the best way to classify and remember it. A definite smooth finish but still medium to medium high tannins, which can easily be from a young wine. Flavors on the nose were not as complex as I expected but definitely complex on the palate - but of cherry, leather, smoke and dark berries. — 8 years ago

The wine that inspired me to make Charbono. Fresh, complex, intense but weightless, alive.
