a fresh and greedy wine. Very fruity and floral flavors. Light but intense. Gamay in Biodynamics, without sulfur; a real treat of youth, nuances, and authenticity. Delicious! 12 € in a supermarket, it's unbeatable — 6 years ago

One of the best California Syrahs I've had. Roughly 1/3 each Bien Nacido, Melville and Roll Ranch. Meaty, Beefy, Big and Bouncy. — 8 years ago

I’ve been drinking this fairly regularly since my local Costco started stocking this vintage. Every bottle I open is getting better, more floral. Lots of flowers and honeysuckle going in the direction of lychee. There’s also a lot of mixed citrus flavors, with grapefruit coming out. It all rides on a background of oak and a little vanilla, and almost cardamom. There’s a little gravel and maybe limestone minerality with balanced acidity. Very nice wine that holds up to Asian food. — 8 years ago

Precocious and fresh, redolent of honeycomb-spiked alfalfa and white citrus blossoms. Tangerine and honeydew flirting on the nose. Pomace stone baseline.
👉🏻On the palate: Nice, brisk, lime-y acidity, with piquant minerality hovering over a jalapeño jelly soupçon. Padrones, vetiver and 7-Up. Lemongrass and musk. Smile.
👉🏻Finish lingers, in spite of the generally zippy nature of this one. Takeaway is confidence--in crafting a laser-focused but still fun Sauvignon, and a general craving for ceviche, beach breezes and long, unfettered afternoons. — 10 years ago

A proud Malbec. Mix of flavor with personality. Definitely worth another bottle. Old cheese a good friend. Steak even better — 11 years ago

Kevin's birthday wine. We were told it is a lighter, fruity wine but we felt like it had a lot of peppery character. The French know how to do it! — 12 years ago

Henry does it again with a lovely blend of different grapes. The shiraz is up front, so the pepper is there, it's dry, but not too dry.
Great price point at the LCBO, after the first trial bottle we raced back to get the rest from the shelf... sorry! — 6 years ago

I haven’t had many bourbons, but this is a favorite so far. It has a lighter nose reminiscent of an Irish whiskey with some floral and vanilla notes. It is smooth from start to finish, and has that classic robust oak and smoke flavor you want in a bourbon. — 8 years ago

Tart red fruit aromas of cherry and underripe blackberry. A bit of leather on the nose. Medium tannin and medium body. On the palate, green bell pepper, tobacco, and black cherry — 10 years ago

Pinot drinkers should give Beaujolais Cru some attention. This one has that cassis and funk going on. Medium bodies with smooth tart cherry finish. For only $15, it's a wine with a lot of character and depth. — 10 years ago

Solid Baco Noir for its youth. Not a lot of tannin to speak of here but a healthy amount of blackberry, plum, and a touch of leather. Paired great with a steak and the company :). — 6 years ago

Dried apricots, lemon zest, grapefruit pith, gardenias, wet rocks, marjoram. Vibrant acidity, light-medium bodied, juicy-rich texture, lengthy floral-citrus pulp-slightly briny finish. Mineral forward, delicate aromatics revealed more on palate, lends itself to an array of dishes. — 8 years ago

I like this wine. Rich and deep flavor, not just hitting around the periphery of the palate like a lot of sauvignon blancs. Great mineral structure. Even the color is slightly darker. Or maybe that's my imagination. — 9 years ago

not too sweet, creamy and fruity and a good acidity — 10 years ago

9.5

Smashing wine. Comparable to aged Chenins like those from Joly but with a gritty, gripping quality that can only be a sign of the vines' age. The 2005 consumed tonight had another 20 years of elegance. Unfortunate that this was our only bottle! — 10 years ago

Absolutely wonderful Washington Cabernet Sauvignon paired with grilled ribeye finished truffle butter. Dark bramble, black berries and cherries, fine tannins, leather, peppery and hint of green peppers dry finish. Drink now. — 10 years ago
