Light golden white with a tinge of brown. Moderate carbonated head on pour, mild apple aroma profile. Bone dry but fruity in mouth, curious mix of lactic and another unidentifiable flat tasting acid, but not much malic acid. Austere flavor profile, reminiscent of a dry minerally white wine. Light seed tannin bitterness and astringency on finish, with a hint of matchstick in the aftertaste, but great length of light apple flavor during latter half of taste. Should pair well with a soup, stew or similar hearty fare. An elegant pour — 9 years ago

What a Christmas treat! Co-fermentation project by Mattias (petite sirah with Roussane). Nose of flowers and stewed fruits. Chewy and tannic, melted chocolate, dark fruits - flat out delicious. — 10 years ago

Impeneratable purple in the glass with classic notes of blackberry, blackcurrant along with aromas similar to that of a freshly opened bag of natural confection co jelly babies driven secondarily by slight herbaceous notes, a slap of mint, liquorice and some oak but is settled in nicely. Medium to full bodied palate is similar to that of the nose that is scaffolded by lacy ropes of tannins that's filled with high fruit intensity. Reckon you'll be good going for another 6-8 years and turn your world upside down by pairing it with some beautiful lamb. — 10 years ago

Smells like a field of flowers in springtime! Light cola beneath a blanket of blood orange, honey-bread, eraser, wood stove. Subtle, and shimmery. Constant feigning, dodging and sleight. A flat rootbeer and ginseng admixture accents the back end of this corn-fed hussy. #domainedupage #twobrothers #Illinoisbeer #countrystrong — 11 years ago

Good but far from very good. Fell flat to be honest. Muted fruit, bit hollow, too much oak, short finish. Considering the vineyard and producer this is disappointing. — 9 years ago

The 2014 Petite Sirah is flat-out beautiful. Aromatic, poised and focused in the glass, it possesses striking varietal character and wonderful aromatic overtones from the co-fermented Malvasia Bianca. The Petite tannins are very nicely tamed, most likely because of the Roussanne in the blend. The 2014 is a total knockout. Don't miss it. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Sep 2017) — 9 years ago

Saw last name Glaetzer as co-winemaker and realized why I was enjoying this Aussie cab so much. Hadn't had anything by him in a while. Wonderful dark fruit and chocolate. Very velvety and great price! — 11 years ago

Real wine. Violets, koi pond, plum bread, dried raspberries in a Sumatran coffee and gunpowder tea bran muffin. Shoe leather in clear polish. Wound up a little tightly as it was just opened, the palate receives a heaping spoonful of coal and banana leaf, with iron pellets. You can see the shadow of the panther in this one! Pure muscle. Cracked pepper, smooth, flat black stones; dried violets, tar, squid ink and flame-touched hemp. Not your typical Zin fare, this one elevates the cultivation to an art form. 80 year old vines strumming archaic, wooden energies into the glass. Remember this is Zin, which is the neon calling card of the wine arcade, then find yourself called to a state of bliss. #zinfomaniacs #zintastic #zincredible #zin #bedrock #bedrockwineco #oldvinesyounglove #oldvine #oldvines #oldvinezin #zinfandel #zinfadel #caliclassic — 10 years ago

Cork was nasty. Totally flat. Tastes like dusty closet toffee. Love it! A singular beer experience rivaled only by aged Thomas Hardy or JW Lees. — 10 years ago

Popped and poured, seemed a little flat. Let breathe in the glass and became too smoky. Second glass from recorked bottle was tight, dry, balanced- excellent. Hope it tastes as good tomorrow. 2012 vintage — 11 years ago
