I was there in September. Actually preferred the Cardinale over all three Lokoya.

Ryan M

@Eric Shanks totally agree. However the Lokoya Veeder is one of my favs.

Ryan M

@David Trumper can't wait to see that tasting. Let me know what you think of the new Lokoya tasting room. And the Veeder. Interested to hear how the 2014s are going to be and what they pull out of the library for you.

I found this to be a very enjoyable wine. I was hoping for a little bit more Oak. I'm not quite sure how it would evolve over time. I always find these to be a great pop and pour wine. I never hang on to them too long in my cellar.
I would love feedback from anyone that has aged some of these to see how they evolve.@Ron R @Mike Rowe @David A Lentine @Howard Greenfield — 9 years ago

@Martin G Rivard I haven't had the pleasure of enjoying any. I've had the 08' reserve recently.

Might be the best rum I've had. Lot going on, but all working together. Not too spicy. What I always want cognac to be — 10 years ago

11' Judge Palmer Beckstoffer Georges III. Santa Rivard, you can shimmy down my chimney anytime with this little jewel. In all seriousness, thank you very much! Have to agree with @Ron R maraschino cherries on the nose. The palate- Getting rich dark berries, vanilla/oak. A peppery herb mix throughout the palate. Sweet tobacco & cassis on the back of the palate. What a savory & nice finish. @Martin G Rivard 👏 — 8 years ago

As we all know., Ron is insanely great at posting the absolute best tasting notes!! I'm not really sure how to begin describing a wine that he's already talked about BUT what the hell...I'll give it a shot! Here it goes:
EVERYTHING that he said was True.
Good night 👌🍷🍷👌
Just kidding! I'm not letting you off that easy!
This was was Insanely Focused. Decanted 2 hours and it was just beginning to reveal itself. My 1st time ever enjoying this Heidi project. The Howell Fruit is amazing. Focused with globs of depth and concentration. I love the initial explosion of Berry & I think dark cherries??...,,all nicely wrapped in a beautiful Oak blanket! I love the mid palate and finish. I told Ron., if this was a song it would be the bohemian Rhapsody. Perfectly orchestrated., it lifts you up., brings you down and takes forever to finish!! Ok., I gave it all I've got Captain!

@Jody Scharf was it the 08 that you tasted? If so, that's spooky.

Jody Scharf

It was @Ron R you say jump. I say how high?

Ron R

@Jody Scharf, one day, I'll fall short with my proposals. Yours are great, too. You taste some outstanding stuff and I calibrate from your notes. So, feelings are mutual my friend!
