Loving ripened red berry aromas. Lots of strawberry jam on the tongue. Hints of licorice with sweet tannins rolling over the palate. — 9 years ago

Just off-dry, balanced by moderately elevated acidity. Big petrol and crushed apple on the nose. Palate shows grapefruity citrus and green apple. Loving it at current vintage, feeling like it could lay down for several years at least. — 9 years ago

Loving this little Piedmontese gem. A new grape for me...Erbaluce. Apple, minerals, herbs and flowers, and just a touch of petrol. Really conveys a sense of place! — 12 years ago

Classic New Zealand Sauvignon Blanc: lemon grass and lime peel, white currant and red pepper. Medium-bodied with currant, citrus flavors, and a dry mineral finish. Loving this with oysters seafood. Serve chilled. — 12 years ago

Deep ruby red with a strong, fruity nose. Aromas of black cherries, strawberries, and vanilla initially. There’s some oak and tobacco on the nose, as well, that gives it a slightly rustic character. This is not necessarily the kind of Merlot that “drinks like a Cab” like we’ve all gotten used to. It’s decidedly smooth and medium bodied with very fine tannins. On the palate, there’s a ton of stewed plums, bright strawberries, blackberries, and smooth caramel. More toasted oak, cocoa powder, and vanilla finishes things off. Exquisitely crafted, silky, and rather interesting. I’m loving Merlot again. — 8 years ago

No notes. This is the one that I was drinking with my kids on the patio as I watch the penguins win their second Stanley Cup. — 9 years ago

Super smokey at first and I was perceiving this muted prune feel that really threw me off. Not sure what was going on. Kept drinking it in sort of a baffled and intoxicated state but eventually this went missing during the wedding party. I recovered it the next morning on a picnic table about a half mile away overlooking the Muir beach coast with about 1/6th left inside and no cork on it. Proceeded to cork it with a random and drive back to Long Beach with it. I drank it at this point about 32 hours after opening and it was righteous. Menthol and so much medicinal cherry cough syrup from the nose all the way down the hatch. Really serious juice but loving that unique character. Definitely a slow opener. 💥 — 10 years ago

I know... It's young. But I'm still loving it, from a non-rosé fun. Intense, full, complex nose and mouth. — 11 years ago

I'm pretty blown away by this. Floral nose w/black pepper. Such a unique interpretation of Mourvedre, it has all of the best qualities of Bandol red & Rose wines. Really loving it. — 12 years ago

The beginning of a 6 year SO vertical tasting at our monthly wine group dinner. It's a good, well made wine. It's just, well, I guess my palate has evolved. This iconic CA wine is just not my cup of tea any more. I couldn't believe how similar all six wines were. I mean like Budweiser similar. — 12 years ago

Amazing. Drinks well as I type this. Very complex wine. Is this really a Pinot? Wild berries hits you on the nose, followed up with a leathery full throttle profile. Hints of raisin ending with a smooth finish. Loving it... — 10 years ago

If you think of rosé as juice (like I do), you should get a bottomless sippy cup of this stuff and just commit already. — 11 years ago

Loving the fruit forward 09. If you dig deep there is some lead pencil and earth, but it's hiding beneath tons of fruit. Starting to come together now. — 12 years ago

I opened this same bottle in 2011 and was not impressed due to the strong tannins. 2 years later, this bottle has evolved! The berries are very prominent at the onset and the finish lingers at the back pallate. Loving this wine now! — 13 years ago
