Had this 2021 as part of a tasting flight at Foxen this October. Having it now. Incredibly bright acidity. A lot of melon, citrus and cranberry flavors. Aromatic and full bodied and dry throughout. — a year ago

Mellowed nicely with some air. Holds up equally well to a traditional red sauce pasta or an earthier duck/spinach-based pasta dish. Very solid bottle — 3 years ago

Thought this #sangiovese was awesome considering most imports are sent with oak in mind. It's high acid and racy because it needs more time. Exceptional #wine in my opinion. True to varietal and plenty of room to grow. Subtlety damp, high acid, high cherry with a focused level of robustness, cherry skin. — 4 years ago

A super succulent merlot-petit verdot blend from Foxen. Ripe blackberry and licorice fill the round, warming palate. An easy drinker from one of my favorite names in Santa Barbara. — 6 years ago

This surprisingly exceeded my expectations. Layers of cherry and darker fruits with a bit of graphite and pepper. Poured through an aerator and it was ready to go. — a year ago

Juicy nose of green apple, dried chrysanthemum, pineapple, and subtle vanilla on the nose. Rich and dense, almost oily, on the palate, but not heavy. Round acidity laced with mint. Energetic and well balanced. — 4 years ago

2018 vintage. Some cooler, earthier flavors than I’ve ever gotten out of a Bien Nacido Vineyard pinot. That said, it is phenomenal. Just when you think you know a vineyard… — 2 years ago

Great value! Founder Andrew Murray’s Vineyards is a 200-acre site, about 1,500 feet above Foxen Canyon Rd, inland portion of the Santa Ynez Valley, making the vineyard the highest in the county. A blend of Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvedre, "Tous les Jours" means “every day,” shows dark red with black fruit aromas and complex spice notes. On the palate, blueberry and black cherry with spicy cedar notes and some oak, Soft tannins, long finish. Very nice, did I say great value! — 4 years ago
