Easy drinking Grenache-based blend. Rustic and herbal, yet well-put-together, much like myself? #poormansbandol — 9 years ago

Winemaker Joseph J. Wagner is a 4th generation winemaker from a family with farming and winemaking roots in the Napa Valley since 1906. Deep Ruby (darkest Pinot almost looks like a Cab) with aromas of ripe berries and spice notes. The palate shows rich black fruits, blackberries, plums and black cherries, vanilla spice, cedar and cacao. Rich soft tannins, firm acidity on lingering finish ending with mineral tones. Nice! — 9 years ago

Holding-up well. Strawberry fruit, potting soil, multi-dimensional, and light to mid- weight on the palate. Rustic, graceful. Good acid, soft fruit, and quite savory. — 9 years ago

I still love this Pinot but the 2011 was amazing I drank at least a case. It does not have the same feel seems more heavy with darker fruit notes. — 9 years ago

A lighter nose with a palate of cranberry, strawberry and a light zesting of orange. A darker, deeper rosé with a long fruity finish. — 10 years ago

9.3

Perfumed and persistent, with a subtle rustic complexity. Tannins are a touch scratchy but the wine makes up for it elsewhere. A lackluster We the Pizza showing was saved by this bottle. — 10 years ago

Elegant display of classic jalapeño, olives and rustic farm notes. Yet the fruit is still present with beautiful tinges of plum and raspberry. — 11 years ago

Wow. First taste of mature Mugnier and Zuni's iconic roast chicken. Could not be a better pairing. Soft and integrated red and black fruit with subtle spice and just a touch of that Nuits St. George rustic tannin but balanced and led by Mugnier's elegance and generosity. Nuits St. George meets Chambolle Musigny. Yes please — 9 years ago

Drank over the course of 4 hours, very tight at first but after a while in the decanter it opened beautifully, very powerful and rustic. Roasted meat, olives, pepper, blackberry. — 9 years ago

An excellent expression of Cornas with a healthy age on it. Last of several bottles I bought in 2012 or 2013. Earthy, mushrooms, and a touch of anise on the nose and mouth. Rustic Syrah from the Northern Rhone by an old master. — 10 years ago

Best saison I've ever had. Near perfect beer. Bottle conditioned. Dry apricot, lemon peel, fresh hay, saison funk, it goes on and on to a bone dry, and tart finish. — 10 years ago

9.0

Smoky-gamey macerated wild strawberries with mint. On the palate, surprisingly light and fruity, riper berry concentration, medium acidity, and low tannins. DOC regulations require 85% Petit Rouge, the most widely planted grape in the region, but this is 100%. Medium licorice finish. Overall, this is a more rustic Gamay and quite pleasant.
