An Orin Swift Adventure in France. Not surprisingly new world. But surprisingly elegant and subdued. A nice medium weight of Grenache that was well balanced. — 5 years ago

A very rich and dense Napa County red wine that resembles many common labels like The Prisoner, or perhaps some of Orin Swift's current selections. Blackberries, blueberries, plums, and loads of baking spices. Not entirely complex but still delicious, nonetheless. — 7 years ago

Chocolate blackberry nose. Good dark fruit on palate — 3 years ago

Another wine from Orin Swift Cellars. And another one I love. It’s bold and deep. The nose is full of ripe plum, and some other dark fruit with a sweet vanilla. And on the palate it opens itself with some chocolate and a leather. Eight Years In The Dessert needs decantation. Give this wine an hour in a glass and you won’t be disappointed. — 4 years ago

Also had at Swift & Sons in Chicago. The price delta between a younger CDP Beaucastel and the aged 93 Lazaret was minimal and very worth it. Like lavender rolled in clay and then dried over sage. So damn good. Big boozy sappy tannic tar when opened but 30 mins later it came out to play. — 5 years ago

Fragile - I don't believe it’s pronounced frah-ghee-lay - has a big, bright nose full of big, bright red fruit. A bit of heat pokes its head through, too, owing to the 15% alcohol content. That cherry-red fruit comes through on the palate as well, with a boatload of acidity to boot. The winery notes say Fragile pairs well with lighter fare and warm, sunny days. I'd have it with pork chops in a heartbeat. — 5 years ago

If you questioned whether a rose can be lumped in with cougar juice, question no longer. Orin Swift’s absolute apogee of a rosé satisfies like no other. Plenty of malolactic roundness settles firmly in the middle of fresh deliciousness. A drained glass speaks of kettle corn on warm dry slate. — 6 years ago

Almost a 91. But a bit short. Peaches and dried nuts. A little on the viscous side and to be honest with you I really didn't know what to expect. Leaner towards the finish. If I saw this on a discount for $40, I'd buy a couple of bottles. Rearding longevity, I just don't think this one is getting any better in the bottle, so might as well drink it now. — 5 years ago

A relative brought two bottles to a wake and one was corked, the worst I have tasted or smelt for that matter. Took the bottle back and received another bottle that we enjoyed this evening and all I can say is wow. This is a spectacular wine. — 8 years ago
