Where the name doesn’t apply this wine soars! Jazz, artisanal chocolate (Fijian ginger and kerikeri mandarin if you must know), and some friends wearing fantastic Pyjamas.... this wine fits right in. — 6 years ago

Really nice Barbera recommended by the wannabe sommelier but educated waiter at Lago at the Bellagio. Very tobacco/blackberry with some slate added. Had it with a bunch of different Italian small plates that went from cheese selection to truffle risotto back to short ribs and accommodated all. I liked the finish more than the opening (OK no smartass comments by my friends) and agree with the pro's on this one. — 9 years ago
#itsaSicilianmessage #Christmaswine #MtEtna #NarelloMascalese #MtEtnaSicily #Graci 2013 the nose exudes warm violets, blackberries, coffee bean, cedar, citrus rind & charred earth. Nice & stinky. The palate is lean, a bit crisp & smoky, crushed violets, horse saddle, leather, savory herb, black cranberry and slightly bitter, dark and lasting finish. Still a baby! #sommlife #somm #sommelier #instawine #Sicilianwine #Italianwine #Sicily #wineofthenight

Light-bodied, but holds its own weight; great mouth feel.
Fruity, slight sweetness with only a light bite of alcohol, and slight tartness on the back end. Medium finish. Amazing drinkability. — 5 years ago
I love Cayuse syrahs but this is a Merlot based Bordeaux style with ~ 50% Merlot and 40% cab franc which is a little like saying I feared a medium bodied wine - was I wrong - so so wrong - killer juice - it was a full bodied baby - almost like drinking chocolate covered raspberries- what a remarkable thing to say for I had to dive through the funk - tons of Aromas of earth, peat, savory herbs and dark flowers lead to soft, sweet, smoky flavors. The texture and richness keep the interest high - almost too chewy - but after a while the wine soften and the firmness was like a waterbed of joy and sin mixed together - JD gives it 95 - will drink fantastic now with a mid decant time and last 2 decades but not sure what bottle rest will do and I think Cayuse makes to drink their wines early on - big smile of approval rating — 6 years ago

Wow!! Fruit bomb on the nose...explosion on the taste buds. Very smooth. Tasting notes say "Pie in a glass". I wholeheartedly agree!! — 9 years ago
An industry favorite here in Santa Barbara wine country! — 9 years ago
Well integrated Cabernet Franc. Dark plum and blackberry fruit flavors. Big hints of green pepper with notes of earth and slate. A bit of a medicinal flavor on the finish. Low acid and can be served chilled. One of their last Long Island vintages. — 6 years ago
Surprisingly light colour but it sings in the glass. This seems to me to be low intervention winemaking - lots of sappy, honeyed red fruit and pure pleasure. Reasonably priced at $55, which seems to be what it costs in Ontario for a decent Pinot these days. — 7 years ago
