From my town, Cortona, in Italy, at the winery where I help out. One of my all time fav's! Lovely fresh blackberry and black pepper notes with incredible minerality that smells/tastes like cobblestone streets after a summer rain. Organic. This year I think I helped pick. — 11 years ago
Feeling thankful. All smoke and iron, a basketful of woodland berries, horses hooves clattering on cobblestone. — 12 years ago
Light/medium bodied. Cherry pie in the nose. Nice balance with a smooth Finish. — 12 years ago
Tall Tales Syrah, its utterly unique "funk" from the deep, cobblestone soil of the Rocks at Milton-Freewater, shines so bright with savory food. Its earth and mineral qualities, contrasted beautifully by plum and currant, with a hint of black pepper, really give just the right oomph to make this wine the perfect partner for a meal (in my case, pesto soup, with a side of heavily herbed garlic-cauliflower) — 10 years ago
Very good, buttery Chardonnay. Was worried the 2006 would be too old, so didn't risk bringing to a restaurant. It aged very nicely. Wine fridge chewed up the label. — 11 years ago
Fresh leavened dough and feet on the nose and palate. Dark dark fruit. Loving this. Alcohol a biiiiit high. Dark cherry. Dough. Blackberry. Pepper. A bit of eucalyptus. Ryan initially called French. Reminds me of L'Aventure maybe, but with less petit Verdot finish. Floral notes as it opens up. — 12 years ago
Lot of bright acidity and gripping tannins but this one is drinkable now. Lovely oak and darker fruit front and center. Give it a few years and we have a 'value' panty dropper — 12 years ago
Aromatic, mineral laden wine! Nose is like chalk and wet cobblestone. Palate follows the same minerality with lemon peel, bees wax, and nectarine pith. — 11 years ago
Great aromatics. — 12 years ago
Cobblestone favorite — 12 years ago
I had this at a wine class and had to purchase it. Fills the mouth with flavor full body. — 14 years ago
