Mellow as you sip with a peppery tang of flavour as it goes down. Just delicious. — 10 years ago
After 45 minutes in a decanter the wine opened up. A great pairing with beef tenderloin. Dark cherry with a spiced finish. — 10 years ago
A bit oaky on day 1, better on day 2 and even better on day 3. — 11 years ago

Drink ‘em if you got ‘me. After an hour, this one’s not yet flirting with the edge. The nose is sniffable without needing a sip. Fun, indeed to see these can go baby go. Mostly because when a bottle of Chardonnay is purchased in the US, 98% of those buyers think it needs to be consumed before the sun goes down. — 7 years ago

Black cherry, cocoa, soft spice. Just delicious. — 10 years ago
A near perfect drinking experience is the dark ruby '06 Carlisle Zinfandel 'Montafi Ranch'. It opens with an intoxicating bouquet of brambly dark berries, anise, cracked pepper and eucalyptus aromas. The best positive, comparative and superlative adjectives to describe the mouthfeel are smooth, smoother and smoothest. The unctuous mouth is flooded with all the sweetest and ripest dark fruit flavors imaginable. The finish is very long, rich and creamy with even more fruit and spice on the aftertaste. Dazzling stuff! — 11 years ago

Our neighbor brought over this wine and it's so good. Very smooth Pinot Noir. Strong smells of berries and the ending is as rich as bread and butter. — 12 years ago
Opened up a little funny with some top of bottle sediment, but with air got a lot better. A pretty rich almost funky pinot — 6 years ago
Sweet dark cherries on a smooth medium body wine. Perhaps it should have been drunk before because this one feels monolithic and simple even though it is pleasant — 7 years ago

94 pts stunning Russian River fruit with zingy acidity — 9 years ago
Sick Syrah. Smoke, black pepper, bacon fat, lovely dark fruit. Perfect medium minus body, only 13.6abv. Would have mistaken it for a St Joseph or Cornas. Beautiful. Well done Porter Creek, well done. @Drew DiMatteo are you familiar with these guys? They're in your future neighborhood! — 11 years ago

I got two cases this year and I'm worried it's not enough. Always so perfect. — 11 years ago

Very aromatic on the nose. Intense tropical fruit flavours. The slightly off dry taste means that it needs to be matched with the right food. — 6 years ago
