We decided we all really liked this, that it was smooth and fleshy and we could drink it all night. Also however that it was not an epic showing of cornas, more an approachable one. I like the taut linear licorice aromatics on opening best.

One of the best white wines I have tasted. To bad this was the lasted vintage they made. — 13 years ago

Described by Clark as being Chablis-like. Maybe.... But really delicious whether or not it hit that particular mark — 12 years ago

WineSmith (Clark Smith)

Crucible Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Lovely (though not $100 lovely) the tannins on this are still pretty burly for a 9 year old wine. It's got some guts, no doubt about that. I will say there is a remarkable consistency in the mouthfeel of the Winesmith wines. They have heft but are never harsh. The tannins range from "melty" (using Clark's terminology here - I would put the Planet Pluto posted earlier in this category) to "firm" (this wine). Yet there is a family resemblance. They're certainly well made. — 12 years ago

Bourgogne Passetoutgrains Gamay-Pinot Noir Blend 2010

Incredibly delicious. Cherry and raspberry, with undertones of roasted, almost burnt apple that provide a lot of the interest. — 13 years ago
