Beautiful garnet color with flashes of magenta. Ripe fruit on the nose with a hint of radish. Medium bodied, a little puckery and not overly sweet. Carbonic glou glou, as a reviewer said before. — 6 years ago

Wow. I love this. Cherry, meat, smoke, earth. I used my coravin to just taste it. Then I poured a glass. Then another glass. Ok Brooke says I’m getting drunk and am on my phone too much. Is that really a problem? — 6 years ago
Michael Cruse’s wines deserve more recognition than they receive. His single vineyard bottlings are spectacular. His style is lean, fruity, and a dedicated employment of whole cluster press.
This Evangelho Carignan has a deep purple color in a medium, full body. There is bright blackberry, oak, and sandalwood. Intensely concentrated, on the serious structured side of the spectrum for the Cruse portfolio. — 6 years ago

Disclosure I love everything Michael Cruz makes. 2016 sitting for a few years was rich and lush and opened up to rose petal and cherry and plum. Wonderful and sad that was the last bottle. — 5 years ago
Raspberries, Cherries, Beautiful Acidity... Definitely a winner! — 6 years ago
Bubbles are soft (great texture) and refreshing as hell. Tastes like orchard fruit, some watermelon and rhubarb. Another bottle is needed! — 6 years ago
