Just an outstanding pour from a small production Washington winery. Gorgeous nose of red berries, floral notes, and less herb than I expected. This is a young, delicate wine that is quite Loire-ish in structure. Strawberries, cherries, plums, and herbs. Wonderful, wonderful acidity with plenty of greenness. I hope you don't love your Franc overoaked because this ain't it. Fresh is the word of the day here. This reminds me how much I love Cab Franc. — 9 years ago

Cocoa, coffee, dark chocolate, tobacco, prunes and plums. Beautiful deep purple color, medium + complexity, delicious. Powerful, savage, brooding, like a hungry bear. If you like the northern Rhône, I highly recommend this pour because this '02 omitted the Grenache. In Portland with the Bachmans. — 10 years ago

Savage grace. If you want to take a walk on the wild side, but in the most elegant way possible, this is for you. Violets, animal, plums, cherries, dried herbs. Tannins firm but playing a supporting role. A pleasure to follow the evolution over an hour or two. It’s officially fall weather here in NYC so thoughts are turning to southern France... — 7 years ago

Young and bold, this savage warrior attacked my palette and moved in to my mouth, like a mother in law, she means well but we will need to spend some time together to work things out, this wine could easily use 10 years to contemlate its next move... — 11 years ago

Under the radar grape! Norton...savage, well, don't know exactly what that means. ;) Try it and you may find out. Enjoy this at Chandler Hill winery in Defiance. — 13 years ago

Delightfully untamed, savage, aroma of well-hung game (which you know you like). This baby stinks but give it a few swirls in your glass and it’ll start to sing sunshine like it’s chateauneuf neighbors. — 8 years ago

Nose explosively exhibits greens as only New Zealand can express; limes, gooseberries, green tea, green melons, wild herbs, and green peas, to name a few. Palate is untamed, raw, and savage. Not bogged down by any oak, this wild and dry Marlborough screams of place. #kiwi — 10 years ago
