Like a warm piñon campfire, from the next Valley, this nose wafts.

Blue vs red berries throwing fisticuffs around my tongue, refereed by a stavely gent, in a light, acid suit.

I love this wine house. Amazing.

This wine is medium-dark in the glass and has those great savory nose notes that Randall Grahm seems to pack into every bottle of wine he makes. Leather, black olives and smoke are the first to escape. The palate stays on Savory Street with a big olive play on the dark fruit. Acidity is positively mouth-watering and the tannic structure is quite firm. Pair it with pork or fowl easily. I had mine with an honest-to-god Pennsylvania nut roll and almost hallucinated. It was that good. — 8 years ago

This is actually Bonny Doon Vineyards Ciliegiolo rosato, not as depicted in the title. Can I get a better slug line from Delectable? (see lee eh JOE low) This wine is as dry as the proverbial bone but it smells a lot better. Grahm suggests sipping it “whilst quietly pondering the great wonder of it all.”
The wonder is why we haven't heard of this grape before. The nose offers strong cherry and an only slightly weaker herbal note. In the mouth, this wine drinks like a red, full and luscious with big fruit flavor, a very good acidity and more tannic structure than you probably have ever experienced in a rosé. All that is missing from this one is Grahm’s usually salinity. It’s a fruity - and completely wonderful - rosato. — 9 years ago

Smoky tobacco, savory syrah, that Mr. Randall Grahm structured well! Wish I could find more! — 6 years ago

Amazing white blend that is smooth, supple, lovely floral and honey on the nose and initial palette then finishes with a nice lingering mineral finish. @Jason Brater @Randall Brater find this one to try! — 7 years ago

The best twist off wine you will find! Perfect balance of fruit, earth, and texture! Randall is a wine genius and a true pioneer. Try this and everything else he experiments with and produces! — 8 years ago

The grapes - Randall Grahm likes to call the Mourvedre fruit Mataro - hail from Contract Costa County’s Del Barba Vineyard, 56 acres of vines at an average age of 73 years.
The extremely dark wine smells of black pepper, burnt cherries, licorice, meat and smoke. It's a beautiful nose. Savory squared. Flavors of dark fruit power over the earth and coffee and mint . — 8 years ago

Dark rich red color. Doesn't show age in look. Only a hint of browning. Many more years possible.

Chocolate Rosemary cherry. Incredible fruits. Sexy beast. Lindt color. Grahm cracker spice. Beautiful aromas

Texture is ultra smooth. Strong fruit. Tannins are gone but the wine isn't tasting old. Maybe hint of sweetness in the really pretty fruit. Would like to visit in 20 more years.

Very long lingering finish. Like a dry dessert wine.

So old world in its interpretation and how it showed with graceful age here in 2019. Very little intervention in the winemaking as I have come to understand it from Randall and getting to know these wines past and present. A surprise winner of the bottles opened as part of dinner in good company. I will keep my eyes peeled for more bottles of the 1980’s vintages from LG as I have seen a few pop up across Sonoma County’s wine honey holes 🍯 — 6 years ago

Randall wine at Le Coq Rico. 2001. Truly spectacular with amazing depth and fruit. Rich, perfect. Lingered on the palate perfectly. — 8 years ago

I like this blend, and the interplay of the two varietals. Snappy Albariño is rounded by Riesling, and vice versa.
Citrus-Apricots, stainless, off-dry, well rounded med body, medium finish. — 8 years ago

The pale yellow wine brings a savory nose, with a bit of apricot and peach fruit aromas to pair with the saline minerality. That salinity appears on the palate, too. The savory, salty quality is a Randall Grahm calling card, and it appears here in spades. Citrus flavors - lemon, lime, orange peel - make appearances on the palate that last into the finish. Acidity is high and refreshing — 9 years ago
