2010 vintage that is drinking really well. Dark fruit, leather, pepper with the robust tannic finish you expect from Tannat. Proof this varietal is a hit in Texas and that you shouldn't be afraid to try a lone star state bottle — 9 years ago
It is a Prosecco Superiore Brut who does ageing on the yeasts at the end of secondary fermentation in the bottle (Metodo Classico). My dear friend Silvano Follador firmly believes to the hig potential of secondary fermentation with disgorging instead of Charmat or "sur lie" (col fondo) method which may be sometimes too sweet or even not stable because the presence of the work-in-progress yeast. Acidity, cleanness and savoury sensations that's what Silvano's steadily looking for in his Prosecco and I must admit these are all features that I found for instance, in this Dosaggio Zero (pas dosè) 2010 vintage, who left right on my mouth a genuine feeling of citrus and loquats freshly picked from the branch and squeezed directly into the glass. — 9 years ago
Super earthy, dirty like the Delta blues. High tones of leather and wet leaves. Good palette punch, brilliant pure berry-branch fruit. The zippy fine tannins give it a long delicious finish. This one can take a bow. — 10 years ago
Tried this as a branch out of my Sertoli Salis, and it's really good! Similarly, needs a good mouthful of food before drinking it to really bring it out. — 10 years ago
Crispy with a hint of olive branch. — 10 years ago
Jolly dry wine. I like to have it with early summer Italian branch! Had it with poached egg curry and green pea rice soup at home. — 11 years ago
Tasty, oaky - v. Nice 8 — 12 years ago
It's geeky, high acid, under 13% #chardonnay night. The CA ABC crowd needs to branch out — 12 years ago
Sweeter than a typical Pinot with a smooth finish. Would be a good transitional red for a white wine drinker looking to branch out. — 9 years ago
Baked cherry pie, cranberries, sour cherries, smoke. A bit fruit forward but bright tangy acidity balances the palate. Good with anything tomato & basil. — 9 years ago
Delicious with some crazy-good biltong from Olive Branch Deli... — 10 years ago
Broad Branch. Really nice. Not too oaky or heavy. Great fruit. Yum! — 10 years ago
Fruity yet dry. I don't usually enjoy white wines but this is fantastic, especially considering it is the first prosecco I have had. Slightly appely and not too dry to put off people who don't like dry wine and just dry enough for people who are used to dry wines and want something lighter to branch out with. — 10 years ago
The nose on this is special- let it breathe to lose a little alcohol. You'll be rewarded by deep raspberry jam and strawberries on the nose. First quaff is pure strawberry with some herbaceous nuances. Awesome. Kinda like strawberry on a spruce branch. Jam gives way to a more woody quaff. Very, very solid. — 10 years ago
Only 260 cases produced this wine has a good amount of earth fine herbs cherry and currant. Wine made Jennifer Williams fromspottswood — 11 years ago
Very strange and wonderful. — 12 years ago
Blanc not Noir. Apple, ripe pear, rolling in my mouth, smooth with a touch of tartness in the finish. Lawn clippings under a shade tree. A plump bird sings on the branch. — 9 years ago
Had this over a couple days with both being similar. The nose was olive branch and musty old trunk followed by a big berry. Earthy taste with notes of tobacco and surprisingly jammy. A little grit at the end but not more than tolerable. A bottle worth taking your time with. — 9 years ago
Very complex nose. Nice finish. — 10 years ago
From Mag, solid! anise, dried raspberry, chocolate, flowers, wonderful long branch tannins, surprised it held up so good with "variable" storage. — 11 years ago
At RFM, many fine wines, ciders and ale. — 12 years ago
Farmed by a dear friend, begrudgingly tried (I'm often wary of viognier), totally delicious. Sometimes ya gotta branch out... — 12 years ago

Better than last time I tried this. Blackberry, charcoal and eucalyptus on the nose. Dark fruits on the palate - blackberry, dark cherry, cocoa. Medium bodied. — 8 years ago
