Cab franc & Malbec bend from Zev Lovine. A summer, chillable red. Delicious, & a deeper floor than most vin du soifs. Delish factor squared. — 5 years ago

Fresh batch, nose is clean with notes of grapefruit, guava, slight floral. same notes on palette, fizz is noticeable on pour and becomes non visible. Fine texture. Wine is clear, last pour slightly clouded, may vary by bottle being Fiz Nat (Pet Nat). 12.4% ABV. Super easy sipper. More please! — 6 years ago

After an afternoon on the lake, we settled in for some pasta...and some Pinot. DFV seems to over deliver every time I pull a bottle. Beautifully textured, elegant and creamy raspberry and subtle earthiness. Fabulous blend from two distinct vineyards, Horseshoe Bend and Campbell Ranch. — 7 years ago

I gave instructions to get the 2013 Rhys Horseshoe Syrah, but this is what came up. Oh well. A lovely bottle. The nose is intoxicating: blackberry crisp, bramble, cola, soft olive, and fantastic salinity. On the palate, good acid, but maybe a touch softer than I would like. More cola, blackberry, soft olive. Good density, but perhaps thins out a little quickly. On the finish, the tannins are fine, but have a slightly pasty air. Very nice. Probably could have waited longer, but this is drinking well now. — 5 years ago

Really enjoyed this! Much richer in mouthfeel than some of the other vintages and vineyards (Horseshoe, Bearwallow). — 6 years ago

I don't drink too much beer but this one is a semi strong blond beer. Pretty good but I'll stick with my wine! — 8 years ago

This wine is absolutely amazing. It pours into the glass as a deep yellow/gold that sort of looks like Chardonnay that has gone around the bend. It has a vermouth-y nose with a whole bunch of maple, vanilla, and celery (!?!?!). When you taste it, it has absolutely not a trace of sweetness. It’s pretty compact at first, but it opens up into something g completely unexpected and delightfully flavorful with a richness that don’t expect ( and really never find) in a white wine. It’s not like anything I’ve ever had, and I mean that in the best way possible. I hope that I can find it in the States at some point as wines from the Jura aren’t very common. Give it a whirl. It’s not for everyone, but quite different and delicious. — 6 years ago

Nose end entry of this wine is graphite, ash, violets, pencil shavings, dates. This one had a hodgepodge of different things going on. A very terroir-driven wine. I think it really needed about 30 minutes to come out of its lumber, because the first taste I had made my neck bend just a little bit. This settled into a very nice wine. This one almost seems to be timeless, and I have a feeling that this one will stay just the way it is for another 20 years or so if you let it. It may develop some more tart and plum and prune characteristic, but I'm not so sure that would be a bad thing! Drinking nicely. — 7 years ago
