Sipping Fine Wine

Ruby with aromas of red berry fruits and spice. On the palate flavors of cherry, raspberry and citrus with notes of oak, spice and forest floor. Fine tannins, good acidity balance, medium+ finish ending with fruit, cedar and mineral character. — 4 years ago

Nose of black fruit, even some blueberries, a bit of a smokey feel to it, some violets too and traces of dark chocolate. The palate is delicious with good acidity, a nice freshness coupled with subtle and approachable tannins, on a good fairly lenghty finish. A nice forward 2017 at a good price for the appellation and that will age well also no doubt. 91-92 pts

Un nez de fruits noirs et bleuets entre autres, floral avec des violettes et des traces de chocolat noir. Une bouche délicieuse avec une bonne acidité, de la fraîcheur en plus des tannins assez souples et soyeux, finale assez longue et savoureuse. Un beau 2017 approchable maintenant et ii va tenir la route et à un prix acceptable pour l’appellation. 91-92

Ok, this is not a bad Pinotage at all. Interesting that I found it on a ferry en route to Estonia. — 7 years ago

Nez principalement sur les fruits noir, cuir, eucalyptus! En bouche, c’est très bien, les saveurs typique bordelais, fruits noirs, tabac, cuir, cèdre , roches mouillées. Le vin est quand même puissant, les tannins sont présents et le vin a un bel équilibre. Va tenir la route encore
Longtemps mais c’est très bon en ce
Moment. Excellent accord avec le boeuf Wellington. — 5 years ago

Loved this South African blend (64% Shiraz, 15% Mourvèdre, 9% Petite Sirah, 9% Grenache, 3% Tannat). At 12 years old, this was drinking perfectly. Dark and concentrated in the glass, the nose was full on baking spices. The palate delivered bold dark red fruit, in a silky texture.

Our neighbors have a home in South Africa and are introducing us to some local wines that are delicious but sadly hard to find in the US - if anyone knows where to find this please drop me a line in the comments! This would be a superb every day drinker. — 7 years ago

Anderson Valley. Pale yellow, brilliant clarity. Stone fruit note in nose. Citrus and stone fruit flavors, nectarine-lemon finish. Creamy, soft, some skin astringency on front center of tongue. Well made but nuanced complexity — 7 years ago

Rich fruit syrup nose. Hint of licorice liquor perhaps. Dark color with a ting of rust. Clean and crisp. A bit earthy. Has most everything you see in the CA hearty and fruit driven Pinot. Ripe. — 8 years ago
