Garnet purple in the glass. Big bosomy nose of black tea, dried flowers, cherries, and a bit of something meaty. This is echoed on the full-bodied palate with medium tannins and medium plus acidity. Medium Long finish of cherries on roasted beef. Great with hearty Italian/Mediterranean fare. — 8 years ago

Day 1: Very light and fruity- I was expecting something heavy and a little bitter, based in what I'd read of the grape. But it was quite easy to drink and went well with my steak and salad. I would have picked slightly lighter fare than steak if I had known this wine would be so lively! If I can get this again, I will age it to see how it compares.

Day 2: Matured noticeably, much more body, less easy drinking but still delicious, if not moreso. I now get a slight oak(?) edge, with notes of coca. I do get a bit of fruit, but it's bow blackcurrant. So if you did not like this Tempranillo when you opened it, try it the next day. It transforms quite a bit. I liked both. A perfect wine experience.

This is a very drinkable blend with a great price point. Medium bodied, drinks well in it's own and likely pairs well with light fare. — 10 years ago

amazing Rhone rosè from @garagiste_wine for $10!Would be a great one at 2x the price. Gorgeous watermelon flesh color, nose of fresh cherries, tomato Vine, strawberry. Great balance of acid and fruit with lingering finish, would pair well with a wide array of summer fare. Blend of 50% Syrah, 21% Cinsault, 18% Grenache , 6 Counoise, 5% Mourvedre. Sad I bought only 1. — 10 years ago

Nice acidity balanced with deep fruit - think passionfruit or rhubarb - that drinks well with most everyday fare. For example, goes very well with anti-Franco-chillimac :) — 11 years ago

Deep but bright orangey gold. Not much mousse to speak of, though that's likely a product of age (and less-than-desirable state store storage conditions). Likewise the somewhat weak bubbles. Biscuity quince and white stone fruit on the nose and palate. Still a firm backbone of acidity though, and that made it a great pair with "nouveau European" fare (trout almondine, fusilli carbonara). Would love to try it upon release. — 8 years ago

A fine Bordeaux of bramble, earth/dust, leather, and herbs. Traditional, delicate, yet enough oomph to pair with Italian fare. Worth a spin. — 8 years ago

Light and dry with some minerality. An easy to drink white. Held up to Thanksgiving dinner but would really shine with lighter fare. — 9 years ago

Worked surprisingly well with meat loaf and typical southern fare. A very smooth wine. An excellent value. Cline never disappoints. — 9 years ago

Deep red garnet in color. Big bosomy nose of red fruit and fig. Full mouthfeel. Balsamic cherries and red apple peel on the palate. Medium plus acidity puts it squarely in the food-friendly column. Piemontese fare, American lamb, or a lighter cut of steak (veal perhaps). And all this right in my backyard! — 10 years ago

Fantastic Barbaresco! Lives up to the region and is one of the better bottles I've had from there! Good front, tannins and long finish - will stand up to heartier Piedmont fare! — 10 years ago

A wine that goes both ways: as a standalone, I want to enjoy as a glass on it's' own or with your favorite light fare dish. Overall this is a 10. — 12 years ago

Tonight's wine is The Four Grace's 2014 Willamette Valley Pinot Noir.

The nose has fresh red fruits that are very pronounced with notes of strawberry, red raspberry, cranberry, cherry, mint, clove and mushroom.

There are notes of red raspberry, strawberry, cherry, cranberry, white pepper, clove, and an earthy minerality.

This is a light bodied wine with medium + acidity, a fine medium + smooth tannin and a fresh long finish.

A very pleasing wine and an enjoyably quaffable burgundian fare from the Willamette Valley that I have come to love.

While it's true this Zin doesn't have the complexity and depth Zinfandel is known for, I find it to be a great summer red, good on it's own and with summer fare. For the price, it's a regular go to wine for us. — 9 years ago

Bright, fruit-forward + a little zing and champagne-esque bubble that lingers. Smooth and light - great for apps, light fare, or just to sip. Definite summer red. — 10 years ago

young but solid! Decanted but even after two hours was very adolescent. Loved the wine- purity and rusticity combined. Didn't have with quite hearty enough fare, but actually showed beautiful Cru Beaujolais notes so maybe the chicken was perfect at this stage. The Modern — 10 years ago

2003 was a year of extremes in Burgundy, with spring frosts and crippling heatwaves later in the summer, so how did the Lucien le Moine Chambertin-Clos de Bèze fare? Extremely well. Penetrating aromas of cherry and black raspberry, dried leaves, forest floor, woodspice, and anise lead into firm structure and a brooding, sensual intensity. Mineral notes, exotic spice, and black tea add dimension. My only criticism is that the finish is slightly short, and it is a touch more advanced than expected. — 10 years ago
