I know you are thinking this girl is too young, and her biscuits are crisp and covered in graphite and borderline sulphur dioxide match sticks, she doesn't taste of soap, which keeps her honest.
I met her in a sparkling holiday casino where we bobbed for apples afloat in the finest olive oil. The orchids and white magnolias of her floral crown shaking their scents into the leather couches. We say goodnight for now, but plan for breakfast tomorrow. — 9 years ago

My BIL introduced me to this -Petit Verdot is a first for me. Lovely wine! Great start, middle and finish. Definitely recommend for those who enjoy medium-bodied wines (although let's be honest - tastes more full-bodied to me)! — 9 years ago
Cool wine, this, displaying the whole gamut of sweet red fruit I find so enticing in well-made, young grenache. Strawberry jam, ripe ripe bing cherry, orange peel, rose water, and bubblegum. Fruit is just this side of cloying. Voluptuous texture but a surprising amount of tannic backbone keeps it in check. Whereas so much 'new california' wine is defined by what it isn't - overoaked, super-ripe - this seems like one of the few that's defined by what it is: an honest and full expression of great fruit, carefully handled. — 10 years ago

F*ck me, this is delicious! Beautiful, almost crystalline fruit underneath a lean slightly barnyard attack. Honest wine. Man one could drink buckets of this. What a fantastic wine, what a ridiculously undervalued thing. 2010. — 11 years ago
