Pastiche has half price wines on Wednesday’s so I went for one of their higher priced ($64) bottles. Haven’t had a Jack London Vineyard in a long time so I thought this was the time to try it. Not very complex and a tad sweet. I’m amazed that they can sell this at the $64 price on other nights. Don’t know the retail for this wine. Don’t think I would order again. — 5 years ago
Thoroughly enjoyable 29 year old Zinfandel with grilled lamb. — 6 years ago
$45 bottle; was much lighter than other CdP, more like a Pinot. — 7 years ago
2011 vintage — 8 years ago
Old reliable. Always one of my favorite Rhones. Heavyish-medium body, heavy fruit, medium tannin, great food complement, mouthy. Even drinks well alone & is friendly enough not to overpower cheese or light hors d'oeuvre. — 10 years ago
First of Red Burg trio at Wallflower. Bigtime fruit with developing structure. This was my second favorite. — 11 years ago
Really solid. Polished and silky, but earthy and mineral and rustic too. Held up for days. Structured but not impenetrable; could age, but I didn’t eat the baby. Good work in a sloppy hot year. Bouland deserves more attention; I think he’s surpassing a few of the heirs to the gang. — 4 years ago
Taste the case, great value. Blend was good too — 5 years ago
We had the 2009 Vintage on 9/7-8/18. The strawberry fruit is subtle. There was cardomom, mushroom and a nice spice. Truly Burgundian. Medium bodied. No tannin; smooth and ready to drink. — 7 years ago
Excellent. Was a wedding gift so been in the cellar a while. Change considerably after we opened it. — 9 years ago
One of the best double IPA. Only this IPA can be compared to Pliny the Elder. — 10 years ago
Tart, slight grass. Excellent with sourdough and seafood — 11 years ago
Formerly De Meric, beautiful stuff, great mag. — 12 years ago
A lot going on the nose. Red fruit, black fruit, meat, leather. Would be a good wintertime wine. Too bad they’re sold out at Kermit Lynch. Devin gave it 💯 — 5 years ago
I was curious about longevity of this wine. Popped and poured and just delicious. — 6 years ago
Fabulous pinot noir to accompany our or of the ordinary surf and turf. Beautiful wine, on its own and with a meal. What a wonderful discovery! — 6 years ago
Kath Lucas has a great pour. — 8 years ago
Incredibly fresh! Red fruit, slightly meaty and mineral. Such a crushable wine — 10 years ago
1990 vintage - stored always in the same cellar in optimal conditions, decanted before drinking - a great complex mysterious multiple layer aged Pinot, very earth and tertiary connected wine, with power and finesse in the same time - a great experience 😊 — 11 years ago
