Tasted blind and was all over Spatlese Mosel Riesling as the guess, even though the florals are more exotic and the minerality a wee less. Gorgeous. Why Michigan isn't getting more acclaim, I'm not sure...but, heck, I was a guilty party for not knowing. Precise. — 9 years ago

A very big and chewy wine with dark spice earth and mocha notes to compliment the dark currant dark cherry fruit very complex bouquet of aromas up at around 100 foot elevation planted to volcanic ash this vineyard planted in 1997. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon and single vineyard thus is also made by Pierre Seillan. A big and chewy wine on the tongue with lots of tannins on the finish but very balanced and a long Layered finish lots of dark earth and spice through the finish. Finish. 50+ most excellent — 11 years ago

Today I am trying another pinot noir from Chile. This one is from the Maipo Valley region in Chile and higher in the foot hills of the Andes Mountains. This is the 2012 Espino Pinot Noir from William Fevre, known for their Chablis from Burgundy. I really like this pinot noir. on the nose I receive red raspberries, nice earthy notes and some herbal essence. on the palate I can get sour cherry, sour plum, red raspberry, smooth tannin, medium acidity with a clean fresh finish. A real nice example of Pinot Noir for Chile. I bought this for $14.99. — 10 years ago

Love this! My favorite red from Michigan yet. Robust, peppery, medium-body. Begging for hearty/earthy salads. Would be a nice fall wine. — 10 years ago

Pinot Meunier is my favourite grape variety. For the new world- I love it so much more than its Noir sibling. It says- hi! I have depth- but I don't take myself seriously. I really like stems and I smell of sweet wet leaves crunching under foot. Yes. Yes.... And yes. Happy Thanksgiving! — 12 years ago
