Toffee and brown sugar, almost candied fruits. Mid-palette to the finish is a bit one dimensional, but a great go-to bourbon. — 8 years ago

My first time trying this wine. A honeyed nose conveys a sense of sweetness. The wine is not sweet, but it does have a certain sappy mouth coating quality. Need to taste again — 8 years ago

Dry and Smokie. Has subtle black licorice like flavor (plumb, blackberries, mocha and vanilla). Did I mention this wine is dry... In a good way. — 10 years ago

Very drinkable, but quite hot. Relatively straightforward but a very good, intense expression of Kentucky bourbon. Congrats to #18 on a well-deserved victory. — 10 years ago

I have been following this wine for years! This is the best wine Mark Haisma makes. This is so rich in flavor it blows your mind. Ok back to the basics. Almost no nose slight dark cherry. Very brought shouldered big wine masculine. Blackberry mulberry sage cappuccino? This is a pricy bugger!
120$ Still I would buy it and put some bottles away. — 11 years ago

2012. This wine is crazy ambitious. It hits the mark in some ways: (oak usage, noble reduction, pristinely ripe fruit) but misses it in others (soft acid, diacetyl, and just a general chubby feeling). I get that they're trying to make an American Montrachet, and it certainly tastes expensive, but I just don't think California's going to let them do it. I just don't think you can get enough phenolic ripeness while maintaining acid and alcohol in this part of California. I fully respect the effort and thrust of the wine, but I can think of a few other ways I'd rather spend my money. Would be really interested to try it in a really cool vintage like '11 or '98. — 11 years ago
