Sipping Fine Wine

Medium salmon color, copper edges with berry fruit and floral aromas. On the palate flavors of strawberries and cherries, some citrus and a fresh acidic character. Medium finish with berry fruit, citrus, floral and slight spice with nice mineral character. — 10 months ago

Might have kept this a little too long as the flavors are a bit muddled. The aromas/nose on it fills the room so it’s very aromatic. The finish is long but all in the mid-palate and nothing in the cheeks so feels lacking. More acidic than I love. — a year ago

Another winespies purchase that has proven to be a good purchase. Strong spice, blackberry and slight cherry, cinnamon, and more. Medium tannins. A 7 year old wine that likely could age another 5 - 10 years. — 5 years ago

My favorite california Chardonnay. Very balanced between the oak, tropical fruit and good acidity. 14.8 percent alcohol. Really round, full and smooth. Could use some aging. — 11 years ago

Notes of black cherry, with aromas of raspberry hints of tarragon and dried herbs. This is a very elegant wine with extremely refined tannins that seem to saturate the entire pallet. So amazing !!!  — 5 years ago

Deep red opaque color with intense red cherries in the nose. On entry huge flavors of Zinfandel but slightly over the top with alcohol. Huge finish marred by >15% alcohol. Lovely aromas and flavors in the mouth despite the off putting alcohol. — 8 years ago
