2011 might be a forgotten vintage but this CB is really memorable. Did a pop and pour and it had great aromatics straight away. Medium to full bodied. Velvety. Layered. Dark berries, herbs, black tea, licorice, bay leaf. First wine on the trip to France. Great start! — 2 years ago

Enjoyable straightforward wine. It has the usual Riesling character but not very complex. Quite dry so even die hard red wine drinkers might like with light snacks etc. Good value. — 3 years ago

Fermé à l’ouverture mais se révèle ensuite de façon magistrale, puissant et racé, très typé rive gauche, un vrai délice. 93-94

Closed when opened ( pop and Pour) but reveals itself after with such grace and power, very left bank, great potential and great bottle. — 4 years ago

Happy Father’s Day. Pop and pour Tig full of rustic elegance. Deep garnet color with notes of wet forest, tobacco, blackberry, plum, leather, and wet earth. Additional chocolate and oak notes on the pallet. Smooth as velvet, on the bolder side (definitely full bodied); dry with medium acidity, medium alcohol and smoothed out tannings. Cheers. — 4 years ago

The Generous Pour at The Capital Grill. This delightful wine event stacked with Houston Restaurant Weeks was an instant win 💯

Solid Cab that pairs nicely with a Kona-crusted dry aged NY strip. — 7 years ago

Pop and pour. About 2 years since my last btl. Wow, stunning now.. Cola, soft nuits earth and game, dried raspberry and wild strawberry, perfume for days. On the palate: fantastic acidity, a touch thin, but somehow simultaneous denser on the finish, which shows loads of spice, strawberry. — 3 years ago

Like a Pinot noir with a bit of funky hay and some overripe blackberries with a hint of clove... super yum. A few layers, fruit, then spice, but simple enough to enjoy anytime. — 5 years ago

Un des vins qui m’a le plus séduit dans les dernières années. Au nez il dégage de magnifiques arômes de cassis, cacao, et un léger côté fumé. Des tannins présent, mais toutefois très souple. Bu en 2015 encore bon pour 10-12 ans facilement. — 6 years ago

What an amazing blend! This is a strong, funky wine that slaps you right in the face! Bright purple/magenta, sediment, lots of viscosity, powerful nose sees ripe cherries, oak, vanilla, cured meats, palette sees bright ripe cherries, lots of acid, medium+ tannins, high alcohol finish. This is an extreme, untamed, wild wine in every sense. Enjoyable, invigorating! — 7 years ago

Pop and pour at a restaurant over 3 hrs. So approachable and easy to drink considering it was a 2017 (drinking in 2022). Very rounded and a bit velvety, although had good minerality.

At first, very floral aromas more fruit forward, lots of cherry.

Over time, more classic rose and tar aromas and anise. Violets.
Taste became more earthy rather than fruity. Pretty good minerality too which was interesting. — 3 years ago

Pop and pour, notes from 1 hr open. Better than I remember my last btl being, but still not up to the level of that first '11. On the nose: lavender, incense, loads of garrigue, and soft red raspberry..very pure grenache. On the palate: serious acidity, hi-toned red raspberry, more herbal notes, with some salinity, almost olive brine/game, though I believe this is 100% grenache, and attenuated tannin on the finish. This has taken a very savory turn, and the tannin on the finish is slightly attenuated. Yum! — 4 years ago

A big more volume on the palate vs past vintages I’ve had. Easy drinking as usual though. Pop and pour! — 8 years ago
