Wonderful nose. Huge value. Already drinking nice — 5 years ago
Reduction, slighty sulphuric, flinty smoke. On the 2nd day it opened up with red apples and lemonpeel, still some flint and wet stones, very tight and fresh style. Minerality like drinking a quarry. Amazing value. — 6 years ago

Fresh raspberry and strawberry, good acidity, excellent oak integration. Adam did well, as usual. — 11 years ago
Really incredible wine. Not paired with any food, the wine is flavorful, quenching w/ oak flavor adding the right dryness and notes of plum & vanilla to finish - really well balanced and opened well. Bottled was empty far too quickly : ) — 4 years ago

Bibiana rocks! Aromas of fresh fruit and stems of red roses are followed by a discrete juiciness and silky mouthfeel. Todd has found another superb mentor. — 10 years ago

Clay loved it. Soph liked but not as much as clay but would drink again. — 4 years ago
Fabulously surprising! This wine is one of those warm robust bear humans who wraps you in a hug that doesn’t smother you, it frees you. It’s fresh. Oodles of dark berries and plums plus vanilla and a very herbal earthy thing and something like leather. So very very good. — 5 years ago

In a perfect place. Always love Bize and with some nice age this is great. Excellent pick from the somm at Daniel. Beautifully aromatic with wonderful fruit. Just a slight hint of tannin, but still good lifting acid on the finish. Great pairing with both a skin-on black bass as well as a nice strip loin. Long finish. — 4 years ago
