Good for a restaurant wine choice when there are no Italian reds. Not overly juicy or in your face typical of the region. Probably due to the nice peppery overlay. Acidity and tannins well balanced to permit mouthwatering enjoyment up front followed by a long relatively soft finish. Priced a bit much. — a month ago

Pessimist — Un brindis entre amigos
Probamos el Pessimist una tarde cualquiera.
El vino abrió su alma como nosotros la nuestra: oscuro, profundo y un ligero toque dulce de sinceridad.

Al servirlo, su color "chicha morada", denso y casi misterioso como las mejores conversaciones. En nariz, fue un abrazo de moras, ciruela, un toque de vainilla y esa nota ahumada profunda que parecía venir de alguna historia que ya habíamos vivido.

Al probarlo, todo se ensambló con naturalidad... la potencia del Syrah, la dulzura del Zinfandel y la estructura del Petite Sirah fusionaron nuestras personalidades en la mesa.

Taninos suaves, redondos pero con la firmeza justa que te envuelve el paladar sin imponerse. Vino con carácter, pero sin arrogancia que supo acompañar mientras hablábamos de la vida,
y celebrar.

Pessimist no nos pareció pesimista... nos recordó que el tiempo bien vivido se mide en copas compartidas, y que algunos vinos, como algunas amistades, se sienten mejor cuando se dejan abrir con calma! — a month ago

2017. Pre-anniversary dinner at the oven. 33 years ago we couldn’t afford a lot for our wedding reception and bought a case of the Roederer Estate wine for our reception. We’ve never tried the L’Ermitage until tonight. We loved it! — 2 months ago

It’s got that CA profile. Dusty earth and tooti frooti but also has some good spice. But yea, that CA profile. Elegant, sweet and balanced. Not big but small and pure. Nice. — 2 months ago

Classic Pinot with strawberries and cherry aromas. Medium tannins and medium acidity. A good value even on a restaurant menu. Nice with food. Will get again. — a month ago

9.0

Blend of Cab Sauv, Cab Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot & Malbec. Deep Ruby, purple edges, youthful aromas of black fruit, spices, floral and flinty notes. On the palate flavors of blackberry and black cherry with some vanilla and tobacco and herbal notes. Vivid acidity, firm tight tannins with long finish ending with a vibrant character, a bit young, should benefit from bottle aging. — 3 months ago
