This was fine. I imagine seeing this on a wine list with friends and saying "hey, I got a bottle of this in Paris; I liked it!" To which they'll say "cool! Wanna get a bottle?" Followed by a quick meh — 7 years ago

Smells like a shop that only sells dried fragrant fruit on tiny hemp strings. The shop is playing “Gorecki, Symph #3”

The first flavor/band to hit my palette is “XTC: skylarking” a harmonious blend of red and blue fruits, subtle, yet always a new one after every sip.

This wraps up with a truly silky, smooth style, with a long, lingering flash of vanilla. “Prince: Purple rain” is what’s happening in my head at the moment..
Stunning Cab Franc blend..

It's representative but just not my favorite. May grow on me. Let's see. Definitely has some punch and not a wallflower. — 8 years ago

Rockpile Haley bottling,
I’ll take Paso Syrah over this Vineyard in Sonoma. Nothing really unique or distinctive about this one. Good but not great — 7 years ago

A favorite bottle to commemorate some new ink. Always love LF, as this is a chard that definitely grows and progresses as it opens up and warms up in the glass. Beautiful notes of iris, candied pineapple, melon, toasted walnuts, and saline minerality on the nose. Gorgeous texture and purity of fruit.. bruised apple, Meyer lemon, papaya, and chalky minerals. Bright zingy acidity on the backend, but not as lean as something like Ceritas or Failla - a bit more baby fat and textural complexity on this bottle that keeps you coming back for more. A perfect hybrid of styles by Jeff Nelson and co. Paired with a creamy bow tie pasta with dried tomatoes and a spring salad. — 7 years ago

This was not only the WOTN but is definitely the WOTY for me. My head snapped back in utter amazement as soon as I enjoyed my 1st sniff of the nose. Holy mother of all wines is this bottle absolutely stunning and perfect. It's by far the best wine that I have had the privilege to enjoy. This is exactly what I was expecting from the famed 61!!!!!! It was simply perfect. A truly perfect example of what Latour is and what every Bordeaux blend in the world aspires to be. Utter perfection in its opulence & decadence: blackberry, black currant, intense & soaring aromatics. You could enjoy the nose at arms length!!! Simply & utterly stunning. Thank you Jeff!!!!!!!!!!@Jeffrey Lew — 8 years ago

True to Gary himself-Big, bold and flashy. Deep muddled blackberry in color. Almost reminds me of a Syrah with how deep the color is. You can really tasty the terroir and less manipulation from Jeff the winemaker. Herbs and dried raspberry with a long persistence finish. Will only get better with more time. — 9 years ago

Trying to kickoff the week on the right foot - thank you, Jeff Shifflett, for adding some spice to this meal! Lots of vanilla in this well-rounded 09 cab. Homeland starts tonight too - hollaaaa! (And I actually edited my rating to make it higher - this juice is crazy when it opens up!!) — 10 years ago
