Not terribly memorable but enjoyable at the very least. — 10 months ago
Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (80%) and Syrah (20%). Walla Walla (Rocks District) fruit. Dark purple color with a ruby rim. Lovely aromas of dried cherries, black plums, Earl Grey tea, iron, cardamom and black pepper. Same fruits on the pallet along with hints of black currant, black olives and that ever present touch of black pepper. Just a hint of mint on the finish. The Syrah really shines through on this one. Mouth drying (but smooth) tannins. Soft texture with a nice balance of acidity and alcohol. Aging beautifully! Revisited in March 2023. Still outstanding! Revisited again in October 2025. Savory notes are more prevalent (fruit more in the background) but still quite good. — 3 years ago
LOVE. Loire might be my favourite French region.
Some green pepper on the nose. Dangerously drinkable. Food friendly. Went well with spiced ground beef and rice, but this red would be a good companion for red or white meat, Indian dishes, or on its own. — 5 years ago
Raspberry, dried black cherry, smoked salted game, herbaceous and forest floor notes. Damn good kitchen sink blend! — 6 years ago

Another excellent vintage of this Washington State Tempranillo! Deep ruby core with a garnet rim. Intense aromas of black raspberry, dried herbs, baking spices and graphite . Black raspberry/cherry fruit on the palate with notes of beef jerky, orange zest, baking spices and dried herbs. Long and earthy finish. Medium-plus body and quite fruit forward and savory. Nicely concentrated with fine grained tannins. This bottle was perfectly aged. — a year ago
Full, Bold and plush. Made from Walla Walla grapes. Ripe fruit (plums and black cherry) aromas and flavors. Hints of black pepper, black olives and baking spices. Smooth tannins. Touch of blueberry on the finish. Fruit forward but not over the top. Just a bit hot out of the bottle so decant this one a bit. — 5 years ago

Wow - power Beauj, unexpected. Dark, Somewhat austere (age) yet also fruity. Maybe that’s the old vines? Not sure what to compare it to - maybe a good CDP — 6 years ago
Yes. Structured leather blueberries, sharp acid almost fizzles. Boom. — 7 years ago

Floral, green apple, toasted biscuits. Cremant’s will almost always be better than any Champagne you’ll pick off the shelf and at a fraction of the price! — 8 months ago
This is all wet rocks and blue fruit, just what I love. — 5 years ago

Solid product, but lacks depth. Heat is pleasant but not overpowering. The vanillin on the other hand is overpowering. — 7 years ago
