Very young but lovely fresh apricots, peaches and pineapple. Honeysuckle and white flowers. What really makes this wine amazing though is the body. It's big and round the whole way through where so many Sauternes fall either in the middle or finish. Lovely. — 10 years ago

Great value Nebbiolo that punches above its weight. Infanticide? Maybe. Bright acid, youthful tannins, earthy, purple flowers. — 10 years ago

I understand it to be a unique blend of Syrah and Pinot. — 11 years ago

Medium ruby with a hint of bricking, this wine has a phenomenal herbal nose of mint and leather and underbrush. In the mouth the wine is everything you want from Musar. Stunning fruit, cedar, a bit of barnyard and dried flowers. Incredibly complete and delicious. There's a phenomenal salinity to the wine with a faint powdery tannin. — 10 years ago

If you look up the word "sublime"in the dictionary, you'll see a photo of this bottle. In such a perfect place right now, fully integrated, stony satin, lemon butter, white flowers. Hammers home all the reasons to maintain a wine cellar. — 11 years ago

This 375 ML is drinking beautifully now. Offers up a bouquet of spring herbs and meadow flowers. Red fruit on the palate, but fruit isn't the primary characteristic. There's dusty earth, savory herbs, and fine tannins that are very much like green or black tea. Finishes with a lovely spice note, sweet tobacco and bay leaf. There is, too...lively acidity that will make this classic Bandol an excellent food wine. — 11 years ago

Grenache blanc/Viognier blend with a touch of Marsanne/Rousanne. Can smell the bouquet from the table top. White everything - lots of flowers and perfume, peaches, nectarine, slate and wet stone. Nice work from the Rhone Rangers! — 10 years ago

Very pretty. Smokey. A bit too much smoke perhaps. Great mineral and white flowers. Has some power under the hood. — 12 years ago
