From 60-80 year old vines in one large vineyard site. Chamomile, vegetal, crushed limestone rocks, and a light waft of salt and citrus rise from the glass. Completely linear, full of tension and energy. This has prickly and nervy acidity, great stuff. #chenin #collier — 10 years ago

Lots of potential in tassie. This had good texture. Don't buy if you can't handle cloudy whites — 9 years ago

A chateau that's been on the rise I'm told. Terroir is sand and gravel with clay substrata. Very fragrant, something pleasingly green and floral about the flavor profile, plenty of acid, fruit is red and blue with some spice. Great achievement in '04 and drinking great! — 9 years ago

Douro decadence. Dark blacks & reds, cured meats, wet minerals & Portuguese liquid love. Young, but that's why we have more. A great demonstration of why this region is on the rise. — 11 years ago

Not going to expound upon vintages and weather. This is a really nice wine. Some will say this is a Janoueix play on a new World style. But I find it compellingly balanced for a Bordeaux from a generously vaunted region. The nose a mish-mash of arboreal cuts, with pine interceding, but also a slick, black, stony core that sloughs smoky, elemental suggestions. A tar and graphite mouthful, showing depth without getting gritty or pronounced, then settling on a supple note of blueberry-currant on the carry through, but pleasant and enduring like an empowering conquest! Rise above! Plenty of residual perfume to make it salacious. Dirty as you want to be. — 9 years ago

2013. Plummy when cold upon opening. Then plum recedes as smoke & berry fruit rise. Very light tannins. Good but not for this Winery. — 10 years ago

From an up and coming tiny producer. My first wine from Redwood Valley in Mendocino. A really cool minty eucalyptus tingle to the nose and palate stands out the most. Very aromatic, the aromas easily rise from the glass by just pouring the wine. Raspberry and rhubarb join the mint in the nose, all seasoned with wild herbs. The palate is juicy with good freshness and just the right weight (13.8 abv), there is nice length too. — 11 years ago

Deep dark inky red. Robust aromas of incense, smoke, ash, and over ripe plum rise to the nose. Smooth but not velvety at the start, quickly turns tightly tannic with overtones of cassis, jam, and graphite. Acidity is balanced and the finish is polished if a bit rosin laced. The only thing holding this bord back is the brutal tannins, I'm sure it will be stellar in two more years. Will revisit then. — 11 years ago

I figure go to a "go to" reliable red when watching Montreal at home in hockey playoffs. It worked. #GoHabs! — 11 years ago
