When in Rome (as they say) 75% Cab Franc, 25% Merlot. This needs air or you'll think it uninspiring (was best the next day). Violets and slight French oak nose. Smooth, clean blue fruits with tannins up front fading at mid palate. Med/short finish. Solid wine. — 9 years ago
Really impressive the second day. Would try again and certainly decant the next bottle. With air loses baby fat and moves from boring cherry to much more interesting spice notes like cocoa and maybe nuts. Good acidity — 10 years ago
Tasty tavel! Watermelon candy, strawberry and raspberry syrup, fresh picked basil/tarragon, enough earth to go around, voluptuous body, lengthy finish. — 10 years ago

2015 vintage - oak, cherries, maybe a bit of sour blueberries. Really good. — 9 years ago
Super ripe but manages to balalaika with a remarkable amount of remaining acidity and amazing herbs on the nose. Like a great big American Merlot with twice the complexity. — 10 years ago

I am not usually a fan of Chardonnay, mostly because it is often aged in oak which I'm not fond of. However, the bartender recommended this particular Chardonnay and told me the story behind it and I really enjoyed it. Can't wait to drink it again! — 10 years ago

It's going to be hard to cellar the extra bottle for at least another year. This paired perfectly with a garlicky Italian spiced homemade pizza plus a burrata salad but something tells me it would've paired just as nicely with dirt.
