Very nice balanced Oregon’s Pinot. Burgundy’s like. 1999 — 7 years ago
To be honest, if this was placed in a blind-tasting, I can see it being mistaken for a Burgundy. The nose is a savory herb garden intermingling with crushed violets, peppered with spice and cedar. Soft and lithe on the entry with a focused arrow of acidity on the backend, Hyland glides onto the palate with fresh cranberries, orange peel, and pomegranates and finishes in fresh mushrooms and peppercorn. The tannins unfold from powdery into a sexy swash. Pretty and cellar-worthy. — 8 years ago

A baby but so perfumed and beautiful. I'll call you in ten years. — 11 years ago
This wine is compelling. Just when I'm ready to write it off as 'vintage' it tightens up & 'producer' takes the lead role. — 12 years ago
A bit over the edge...won’t say pass by the hours of glory are behind. Still good acidity but short mouth fell. — 7 years ago
Out of theme bottle. More depth, concentration, and complexity versus the rest. Most people guessed Vosne from its sensuality (wildness?) and dark fruits. Quite airy which led me to guess Le Petit Monts. I guess the dark/black fruits hinted more towards Les Beaux Monts. Found the 2014 to be more reductive and regal. — 7 years ago

The only thing better than this Bressler today was the company of my friends, family, gorgeous wife, daughter & grand daughter!!! Wine truly encapsulates an event and I could not think of a better way to highlight this Fathers day than to uncork a beautiful vintage that I've been saving for a special occasion. I killed 4 bottles of Bressler today. It was my 1st time tasting his 2013. Absolutely freaking amazing. Big, bold, Rich and opulent. Bob Bressler is a master at his craft. I've never lead any of you wrong before in regards to wines that I am passionate about. No Bullshit: buy this. Freaking amazing! I was snapping necks all day!! People would immediately turn and say "Holy shit, what is this!?!?!". I've said this a thousand times but I'll say it again: Bressler flys under the radar. Snatch up as much as you can right from the winery at a great price. Bob is a badass winery owner and loves it when you call!! Call on Tuesday since I'll be calling on Monday for another case and want to be sure that he has capacity!!!! Believe me., you won't regret it!!
This was the wine of the day and everything else we enjoyed was such a distant 2nd that I won't even post them! Bob deserves today's title of being the "Bad ass in a glass " wine of the night! Bravo my friend @Bob Bressler !!!!! — 8 years ago

One of a flight of five 2009 Premier Cru Vosne Romanee .Terroir and winemaking do make a difference. Hard to choose but definite differences . All fine wines. And all from just two vineyards. — 10 years ago
Floral to the nose, subtle oakiness and layers of flavours to the palate. A well balanced and classy Chardonnay. Too bad 2011 is the last vintage. — 11 years ago
Sunflower seeds, some oil, smoke and olives on the nose. Very smooth, calm tannins, medium acidity, very earthy, raisins, blackberry, black curants. Shorter finish. Great, light and wonderful. — 11 years ago
Elegant and refined Pinot Noir. Medium color and weight with a long smooth finish complemented by dark berries, Forrest floor and casis. — 8 years ago
