Tempranillo from grapes grown on the slopes of Mt Yerga, among the highest elevation vineyards in Rioja. Modern style. Aromas of berry with notes of tar, leather, hibiscus, and mineral. Excellent raspberry-like flavors and a velvety texture which naturally leads to a long finish. Great balance and food-friendly. — 10 years ago
This beer is my jam. Just lovely. Light on the palate but a little heavy on the belly with a meal. — 10 years ago
Fantastic sake. Just as good as the creamy pearl sake, though perhaps not as visually impressive, and lacking the extra substance the pearl sake has. If looking for a clear sake, this will meet your needs — 11 years ago

Modern Barolo with powerfull nose and taste right away. Ingratiating but enjoyable. Thick sweet cherry, some cassis and vanilla. — 10 years ago
This is the 14 out of barrel. Amazing rich and lush blue fruits with violets. Shows great potential. Peter makes a very modern version of Tempranillo w/Garnacha. If you like this style, you'll want some of the 2014. It won't be bottled until June/July 2014. — 10 years ago

At $37 this is excellent. More classic than modern, but quite ripe with plenty of orange, cherry liqueur, peony and a meagre dash of cocoa. Excellent fruit density, freshness, and focus. Alcohol touches the back end a bit, tannins are ripe and sinewy, firm but not assertive. Great vintage, will be a real steal in 10 years! — 10 years ago
Holy alcohol. First sip its maple syrup and bourbon. Second sip. Alcohol. — 10 years ago
Modern, ripe, concentrated, plummy, black tea. Would love to drink it again in a few years. — 11 years ago
