Excellent Montepulciano from Texas. Llano Estacado premier Texas wine maker. Smooth and berries with some chocolate in the taste mix. Soft tannins. Balanced. Great Texas wine. Had it with spinach lasagna. Yummy. — 9 years ago
I am a big fan of Llano wines. I went to school in Lubbock and this was the best winery we had. This was a very nice version of their Pinot Grigio, which is my favorite! — 11 years ago
Lavender and currants, spicy and tannic. — 7 years ago
This wine crushed. Inky darky beautiful reddy goodness. Huge cherry bomb but without the sweet over extracted ca style. (Duh. Its not CA) much more of a palette encompassing cherry thang. Great length, not a tonne of sediment. Decanted. — 8 years ago

Glass-staining garnet purple. Moderate nose of dark fruit, earth, menthol. Palate confirms the nose with menthol becoming more like wood spices. Medium full body, firm tannins, medium plus acidity, medium long dark finish. In a great place and reddy for beef stew! — 11 years ago

Hiyu is one of the most interesting wine projects on the planet. Nate Reddy is conducting experiments with his 30 acres in Oregon that blur boundaries (like wine and cider) and genres and make you expand your concept for what is possible. The complexity of Tzum Feis is otherworldly and maybe the best winemaking I’ve seen stateside. A field blend, it has the minerality and greenness of excellent Loire Cab Franc and the graphite, cedar, and structure of Bordeaux. The aromas have candied orange peel, green bell pepper, cedar, and pencil shavings. Deep concentration and chewy well integrated tannin. Bravo. — 6 years ago
