Smooth and balanced and lovely with red fruits and a rich, no nonsense finish. Lavender and wet stone with a little mahogany dust. Lacked the clear strength of midpalate I typically die for in the CNdP, hence the B+ rating. — 11 years ago

I like the one that is aged in a rum barrel, hence the reference to Caribbean. — 12 years ago

Croatian wine from the island of Hvar. Grapes are in the sun for 2718 hours, hence the name. Hard to get hold of outside of Croatia, but definitely worth a try :) — 13 years ago

Great wine tasting experience. Fresh and crisp.. Engaging staff - knowledgeable, unpretentious. Also shared interesting history of the ranch and its support of the Humane Society hence the wine label with the dog and angel wings. A little more effort required to find this gem but worth the drive. — 11 years ago
