Deep purple. No vegetal notes on nose. Mellow tannins, fruity, but not jammy. This is very nice. I generally don’t enjoy cab franc so much due to green pepper/ herb thing. But it’s subtle and way in the background here. Quite nice. — 3 months ago

Light, but still full bodied. Paired it tonight with the steak recipe the winery suggested, and it was amazing! — 8 months ago

To me this is Finger Lakes GG. Tons of minerality, great balance, fruit. Always delicious. — 15 days ago

Still hanging in there. Nose is clearly diminished, but the wine still rocks. Minerally, like it was filtered through slate. Apple, pear, still a touch of petrol. Little honeysuckle? So good. — 3 months ago

Hybrid grape fixes this an interesting note that one usually doesn’t get in dessert wine. Cross of expensive perfume / gasoline / grapefruit pith. Also has an interesting reddish tint. — 22 days ago

Blend of Riesling, Valvin Muscat, and Gerwetztraminer. Off dry, very floral. Lemon- lime, crisp and bright. Good acidity- finish is a little thin- but quite refreshing. I’m not a huge fan of off- dry whites, but this is pleasant — 3 months ago

This is very much like a Bourgogne Rouge or Sancerre rouge from a top-tier domaine. Pale color. Very precise nose shows deep, just-ripe, pure cherry, a slight herbal note, and lots of crushed stone, seemingly on the limestone end of the spectrum. Intense but light-footed in the mouth, there’s deep, tart-but-ripe cherry fruit initially, turning savory and minerally on the long finish. Crisp acids. Very nicely done. Thanks to my brother Angelo for the gift! — a year ago
