More good stuff from Michael Savage. Honeysuckle, pear, and lemon. Nice minerality. — 9 years ago
Nom nom. Great acid and funk. Did it start to fall apart the longer it was open? :( bday wine #3 from Passage and my fave so far. — 10 years ago
Excellent at this price, juicy, fruity, right acidity, smooth. Pleasant from opening to 4 hrs later! — 11 years ago
Wine of the night for many, the facts: made from 80% Roussanne and 20% Grenache Blanc, from vines between 10-40 years old, and a small quantity of the “Vieilles Vignes” cuvee, produced entirely from Roussanne vines of at least 65 years of age. Deep gold in color, this is indeed in the mature stage. A complex and full nose showed layers of almonds, sea breeze, candied citrus and honeysuckle. The palate indeed confirmed the small bit of oxidized notes (sherry like saline) that went very well with the yellow fruits and flowers, full bodied with grace, minerality and good acid cut which no doubt is how it was able to age. — 11 years ago
Delicious Pinot gift from a client. Dark fruit. Tobacco. Super easy going down, enjoying with some truffles potatoes and herbed fish (and baseball).

From 30-year old vines. 80% Tempranillo and 20% Garnacha. Tempranillo spent 36 months on 4-year old American oak, Garnacha spent 30 months on 2-year old American oak, bottled in 2011, released, fall of 2015. Just opened another bottle, Ruby with nose of red fruit and earthy notes. The palate shows cherry and raspberry with some vanilla, mocha and tobacco notes. Well developed. The finish had typical Rioja earthy mineral flavor, silky tannins and a long ending. Nice! — 8 years ago
2014 fresh as a daisy Monty. Great structure and fruit depth. Bright and easy to drink but possesses so much interest. Gorgeous — 9 years ago

A rare treasure to get to enjoy the Grace Family Cabernet from 1990. Cannot wait to enjoy this with family tonight! — 11 years ago
There is a certain unique character with Mt Edelstone only repeated in it's illustrious elder sibling Hill of Grace. Undefined but silky is part of it. Notes of roasted coffee bean. Some pungency like H2S but not. The highlight is the silky supple tannins. A beautiful wine one could never tire of. 2004 vintage. From 90 year old ungrafted vines. — 9 years ago
