A toast to the last night in Fiji. A wonderful, richer styled Pinot Gris. A citrus and honeyed nose with a touch of peach leads to a rich palate of baked apple, peach, honey and a touch of oak balanced by bright acidity, wet stone and possibly a touch of RS. The finish is long a clean. A wonderful sipper. — 8 years ago

Excellent full body - high acid but the oxy-esk fruit nose makes it quite interesting! — 8 years ago

Powerful fruitiness. Jolly rancher esk. Tight and zippy. Certainly smells like commercial yeast but does right by it. Creaminess rounds things out. — 8 years ago

Supporting a heart of gold, energized young smashed raspberries and decedent crushed cherry blossom covered immaculate white crunchy rough-around-the-edges-esk minerality. — 9 years ago

Holy hell this is great. And for $15?! Bought at auction. Such awesome actually Bordeaux-esk notes. Graphite, salted game meats, stewed red fruit, granny apples. Palette is rich with some tartness but round, strong acid, fine tannins and a long finish that leaves alcohol on your breath. It's just so my thing, and this rating reflects personal opinion far more than a "objective" rating would. — 9 years ago

Sooo delightful! This vintage was a blend of three lots… Combined they made a nuanced Northern Italian/burgundy-esk Franc that really speaks to Mark’s skill and the potential of classic vintages (weather) in VA. When it’s not too hot, the acids can stay in balance. This can lead to producing real aromaticly complex Francs. To put in context, we pair this with beautifully prepared salmon. Glad I still have one more bottle! — 8 years ago

One of my favourite wines! It's been doing reall well for it's age and could even go a year or two more. Amazingly intense botes of stonefruit with manuka honey! I'm really proud of these grapes! — 8 years ago

Just opened and super impressed. Still very pure dark fruit smoke and some leather. Beefy! Lightly Gamey with some terriaki esk spice notes. Nice dried herbs. Medium concentration medium plus acid. Silky texture. Lightest fine grained tannin and just a touch of subtle oak on finish. In window but has a couple more years. Super super pleasurable and glad I got a few more behind this. Gonna be great with our steak😎 — 8 years ago

Very clean and precise. Has a plethora of riesling-esk aromatic but still very savory. It's compact and expressive at the same time. Opens up nicely. Very nice value. — 9 years ago

Beautiful rich dark fruit. Bordeaux-esk. Baking spiced. Gravely attack, pungent mouth feel, acid dominates the finish with rough tannins. If Temecula was able to make wine like this... It would be another world. This is a fantastic offering. — 10 years ago
