Finally trying Cherry Pie (from Hundred Acre). 3 different single vineyard Pinots from 2012. Stanly Ranch is dynamite (and a vineyard to keep an eye on). Reminiscent of Kosta Browne. Next up is Rodgers Creek. Darker fruit. Less explosive, but a nice wine. Third up is Carinalli. Way lighter, though some spice to it. It's fine, but doesn't hold a candle to the other two.

Very untraditional sake with a big kick... lots of flavors that are more wine based... floral grassy minty a nice change of pace... just be aware that it's not subtle sake you would expect — 10 years ago
It definitely needs to breathe a but but its good. Fruity without being too sweet. I drank it after a long work week and frankly it did the trick! Worth a try and a good wine to bring to a party of non/wine drinkers alike. — 11 years ago
Even though it was the third bottle it was still a standout wine — 12 years ago
I heard about this wine from a lot of old school buyers. It's living up to expectation and more. — 9 years ago
Brightly bitter, with a long yeasty, wheaty finish. Yum! — 10 years ago

Best new winery in Sonoma and taste as good as Kosta browns productions. Well priced and very are to find. Small production now will get bigger. It's my wife's favorite. — 10 years ago
The dimensions of this wine are huge, and I don't mean alcohol, acidity, or tannin, though it has fair bit of all three. There's a depth or a third dimension that only wines from special places have. The fruit is bright and the color pale, but the wine is dark in character. It's the character that Etna has - that rocky, ashy, old balsamic, dusky mountain herb, intense etnosity. — 10 years ago
2012 Rebel Yell: Not as memorable as the bottle opened last year.
Dates, cold brew coffee, toffee and just enough oxidized character to be interesting, but still past its prime.
Rated as an average between samples. — 10 years ago
Had three bottles at dinner tonight with a group of friends. First bottle good, but tannic, perfumed, spicy. Second bottle has the same backbone but lots of dark fruits. Third bottle was near perfect blend of the first two. Had with Chateaubriand. — 11 years ago
Fruit forward, small refreshing bubbles, and a bit of bread dough character! Would go with any food! — 11 years ago
