quickly becoming a go-to. simple, a bit dry, a bit sweet, and just nicely done. — 9 years ago
Nothing too complex about this one, it's just delicious. Simple, yet achieving some elegance. Black cherries, white pepper, and herbs. Plenty of acid and rusticness. Grignolino is an unknown varietal to me but it certainly shows promise here. — 10 years ago

Tasted blind so I'm sticking to my initial thoughts and rating.
I found it a bit simple on the palate and with artificial flavors (bubble gum) that made me think of bottom-shelve domestic Chardonnay.
It's been over a decade since my last Hamilton Russell so probably just my palate that is "off" here.... — 8 years ago

Delightful. A bit simple, but good balance of texture, roundness, and some nice tropical notes. — 9 years ago
This is the straight mersault, not caillerets, for some reason Delectable is struggling to recognize it... Juicy, zesty, lemon power punch. Dazzling fruit and intensity. Pure Coche fun with real persistence. Mental note not to drink this alongside a Montrachet again... It only highlights the lack of complexity and relative simplicity, but damn, if this isn't the sexiest simple wine ever. — 10 years ago

Very easy going ! Nose of cherry. Superb palate, quite simple yet elegant, on cherry and blood with a very long acid back bone. The glass keeps getting empty very fast ... love it — 8 years ago
