Very nice. Some camphor and cherry cough syrup. No tannins and hints of vanilla — 8 years ago
First wine we have tried from Agharta Wines and first Cabernet from Pax. Beautiful ruby red with a dark core. Great complexity and layers on the nose, starting with an attack of fresh blueberries and opens up to a few savory and tons of floral notes. Beautiful bouquet of roses, lavendar and lilac with a smokey undertone and a touch of eucalyptus. Nose just keeps changing as it opens. Overall great mouthfeel and well rounded. Moderate tannins (5/10) that is coated in red cherries and raspberries. Moderate body and moderate plus finish. A little shorter than we would have liked but very well integrated. Overall pretty good bargin at around $30 a bottle. Drink till 2021. — 9 years ago
A little austere but bright forest fruits are there with rather bracing acidity. Comes across old-world and rather charming. Let's be honest, these are very young with massive potential. Can't wait to try these with a few years of cellar age. Nice work by the man, Pax Mahle. — 10 years ago
Still plenty of life here. Shedding its fruit, but great earth and richness — 10 years ago
Amazing Pax Mahle — 9 years ago
Love what Pax has done over the years. I have a few bottles of his 2003 Griffins Layer... It's a beautiful wine that is probably mind-blowing at this point; however, this wine shows restraint, refinement and a sense of place. Looking forward to owning a bottle in a few years. — 9 years ago
Pax with restraint and terroir is a lovely thing, as are old Grenache vines. Right vineyard in the right hands. Good now but likely to improve. — 10 years ago
Nice Slovenian Riesling made by an Austrian. — 10 years ago
Good stuff. - ripe fruit nose with green olive. Dense and smoky on the palate, less fruit than smoke but really tasty. Aerated first glass. Will reserve for tomorrow and see how Day 2-3 turn out. — 7 years ago
