Juicy, bright, grape soda and black pepper. No oak from what I can tell. Such a quaffer and crowd pleaser. — 8 years ago
Not as unctuous as some vintages. But still all yellow apples and Meyer lemon. — 9 years ago

Gewurztraminer Apple Cider at Left Foot Charley's. Confusing. Is it a wine or cider? Made with Gewurztraminer wine skins it definately is unique — 6 years ago

This is my current favorite wine. Its from Left Foot Charlie's in Traverse City, Mi. The brewery is located on the grounds of an old asylum which is like for sure haunted.
The taste of Garden Wine is crisp and light and makes me envision drinking it in a Wonderland garden tea party. There is an almost sour tone that makes me believe there is rhubarb involved. — 9 years ago
Love this! My favorite red from Michigan yet. Robust, peppery, medium-body. Begging for hearty/earthy salads. Would be a nice fall wine. — 10 years ago

The 35 acre Eisele Vineyard has an interesting history, named after its original owners. Originally planted in the 19th Century, the Vineyard became recognised as a special terroir when Ridge and then Joseph Phelps purchased grapes to craft rich complex wines. In 1990 Bart and Daphne Araujo purchased the Vineyard located southeast of Calistoga st the foot of the Palisades Mountains. The wine is 75% Cabernet Sauvignon and 25% Cabernet Franc aged in 100% new French Oak barrels for 22 months. The wine is very dark crimson - amazing for its age. Aromas of Cassis Blackberry with touch of mint which became more apparent with time in Decanter. On the palate Rich profound and concentrated but held in balance finishing with silky supple Tannins. The oak has melded seamlessly. I see from the label they have used Bordeaux based Oenologist Michel Rolland who consults to wineries around the world. Not unlike Quilceda Creek in my limited USA experience. A joy to drink with 5 to 8 more years of great drinking left in it. — 7 years ago

Tasted blind and was all over Spatlese Mosel Riesling as the guess, even though the florals are more exotic and the minerality a wee less. Gorgeous. Why Michigan isn't getting more acclaim, I'm not sure...but, heck, I was a guilty party for not knowing. Precise. — 10 years ago
Some sugary-lemon peel notes, supper bubbly, crisp, light with just enough body. Love love love. — 10 years ago

Cinnamon Girl at Left Foot Charleys. Tastes and smells like an apple pie. Not overwhelmingly cinnamon — 6 years ago
