WNH event number 4. Perfect Pizza Pairing bottles. Not a bad bottle in the bunch!
A bottle that I’ve been wanting to try for a while. Cab Sauv/Cab Franc Blend. The CF gives this an amazing nose! Incredibly floral...violets, lavender, and blueberry. The palate shows some vanilla tobacco, baked blackberry pie, leather and fig. This is young, but I would love to try this in a few years! Thanks for bringing @Joe Lucca . — 6 years ago

A lot of body for a Syrah but incredibly smooth and lots of layers. — 7 years ago

Thank you so much Bud!@Joe Lucca Joe Lucca!!!! A truly incredible wine that I have never, never had! It’s always amazing to receive in the mail a treasure that you will remember. Truly eloquent, a phenomenal pop and pour which has depth and character. Not quite as elegant as a brilliant mistake but a truly stunning second finish. IOU one bud! — 6 years ago
This is a experiment Erich did; only a few barrels made; we tasted out of barrel in 2014. Blackberry tart and toasted oak on the nose. The palate is round and plush; velvet drapes of blue and black fruit. Finishes a bit short and with a vegetal edge. Black pepper lingers. — 8 years ago
Delightful soft nose, smooth blackberry palate, with an aftertaste that encourages another sip. This is great blend of mostly Merlot, with Cab Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc.
Goes well with the Super Bowl, goat cheese and crackers — 8 years ago

This is actually the 2012 Cave Selection Cab, not surprised it's not listed on Delectable; only one barrel produced. We had the chance to try it out of barrel in 2014 and order an allocation. @Erich Bradley is doing such great things at Repris and this is probably my favorite wine of his to date. Lush, lush Sonoma fruit; a wall of fruit up front - juicy blackberry and blueberry pie. Hints of tar and kalamata olive. Minerals and nice acidity give this a sense of weightlessness even with such a rich, velvety mouthfeel. The finish lingers; rich dark soil, green peppercorns, more blueberry and blackberry, mint and bay leaf. Stand out. Erich, bring back the barrel futures program at Repris!!! — 7 years ago
Les tanins étaient très marqués après 35 min de carafe puis le grenache a repris le dessus en exprimant un très beau fruit!
Belle texture et notes épicées !
Lovely ! — 9 years ago

We performed a blind tasting of Miner Family vs Repris 2012 Cabernet Franc. Both are excellent with those tasting who like tannins enjoyed the Miner & those who enjoy smoother jam like texture preferring Repris. — 4 years ago
