J' adore ce genre de bière. Astringente et très amère, une explosion d' agrumes et de notes florales et de pin, une jolie couleur dorée. Double IPA américaine qui titre à 8.7. Elle me fait vraiment penser à ma référence du genre, la west coast IPA de l' association des brasseries Green Flash et Saint-Feuillin — 7 years ago

Made in an oxidative style like the Jura Blanc, but much more so. Rich, saline, nutty. May not be for everyone, but I really like this style. Double post as Mrs A and I shared a bottle the day prior, before opening this one for guests. — 8 years ago

Unfortunately, somewhat closed at this point, even after a double decant. On the nose, hints of olives and spice. Missing the violets I want from a S-J. In the mouth, dark fruit and black olives. Medium-long finish. Needs time, but may not flesh out to what I would like it to be. Bought at the winery in France circa 2006. — 8 years ago

Heavy vapors. Thick wash backwards. Hints of dark wood and syrup tar. I sense rippaso and double-layer apricot and chocolate torte. Happy I followed reviews. Would buy again. -j.2u — 9 years ago

Total winner. Nose is purple- I know that's not a smell but that's what it smells like. Palate shows vanilla, oak, bramble, black fruit and a little heavy cream. Almost, but not quite sweet. Good value. Double decanted over 4 hours. — 7 years ago

I love Carlisle, but if the mantra that they all need tons of rest holds true then that goes double for this one. Day 2 and it's just starting to open up and give a peak. Will hold another 5 years before I check in again. — 8 years ago

'99 Late Disgorged! Hell to the double yes. Like a bruleed peachy Creme fraîche in a puff pastry, drizzled with wild honey. Deep gold. — 9 years ago

Rustic, beautiful deep color, mouth filling. A very enjoyable wine with tonight's grilled veal chops. A winery on the rise for sure, with great family lineage, Historic Dusi Ranch. — 10 years ago

This is so nugget worthy,
Double shift for 10 days straight has brought me to my knees,.
The buffalo sauce seems to over power the wine, I suggest the habanero ranch as the better alternative, bbq sauce is just for kids — 8 years ago

I am a "Reds!" Pahlmeyer wine club member and these bottles are the reason why. If someone asked me about Petit Verdot, I would say its a blending variety. I like it in their Proprietary Red and wines like J. Phelps Insignia. But a single vineyard variety release? I have no idea what to expect. What a bottle! The jammy forward fruit is massive like a Shiraz, but you don't need a steak to drink it. Sweet, but elegant. It has a refined balanced finish that leaves you asking for another sip. Cheers! — 9 years ago

Picked up a case of the 2005 on a Sideways movie tour in 06. Cool rustic wine tasting room. Santa Barbara County is almost as much fun as Napa and Sonoma. Last one and drinking exceptionally well. Complex nose of dark fruit, licorice, barbecued ham. Similar on the palate, really delicious. Cheers. — 9 years ago
