Rhys Vineyards

Bearwallow Vineyard Pinot Noir 2010

9.1

Smooth with great stem treatment. Raspberry, red cherries and forest floor. Lacking a little acidity on the finish but good stuff. Alpine is more complex and layered but this is another winner from Rhys just different. — 9 years ago

9.4

Monkey 47 Dry Distiller Gin. Slightly hazy, water white, colourless. Pronounced intensity of perfume, juniper, lingonberry, violets, lavender, orange and grapefruit zest. With water added, more perfume and citrus notes to the fore. Dry on the palate. Warming alcohol, medium body, pronounced flavour intensity. Long finish. Very complex. Outstanding example of a premium gin. — 10 years ago

Unique / Bordeaux style wine. Needs time to open and despite the age, would improve with decanting this wine. Old world nose, well balanced on mid palate with forest notes and wild berries. Medium finish — 10 years ago

Beautiful!
Edit: Had a glass with leftover turkey. Even better than I remember. Forest floor mixed into the fruit, really nice complexity. Mmmm! — 10 years ago

Again, our cellar master demonstrates his skills, making ours a truly terrific Thanksgiving turkey dinner.

Fantastic. Let it breathe for an hour. Drank w our two friends who own Manousakis Vineyard in Chania. Very special wine that is full bodied with soft tannins. Full of soft cherries and forest floor. It's the bomb — 10 years ago

9.3

Wonderfully "classic" Burgundian nose of mushroom and forest floor. Nice structure with some decent grip. I'd let it sit for a while longer, but it's still yummy. — 10 years ago

9.4

In perfect drinking condition, excellent. Forest floor, iron, the smell of a cracked cacao bar, savory spice and believe it or not a tad of blue cheese. Good palate intensity that is precise and controlled, medium to fine tannins caress the haunting dried fruit and savory long and fresh finish. #bluesheeseinmywinearoma #stestephe #lafonrochet — 12 years ago
