Delicious. Very earthy. — 8 years ago
When it's 90 degrees in San Diego, really chilled, crisp, and dry Rose is the answer. Especially on a Friday afternoon. This Cote de Provence is very nice. Trending towards dry Riesling, just the way I like it. Nice minerals. Rating confirmed at NCWC for their top 10 '17. WS 90 Pts as well. — 8 years ago
The nose on this wine is stunning baring the alcohol heat. Perfumed red florals and candied dark and lighter red fruits. While the wine is truly elegant, the alcohol is seriously burning the back of my throat. The bottle reads 14.1 but I think over 15 degrees. Maybe, they wanted to save on the higher alcohol tax. The wine starts so beautifully only to burn the back of my throat. The fruits are ripe, elegant and beautifully soft. Blackberries, dark cherries, black raspberries, raspberries, faint back palate of strawberries, sweet/soft leather, black licorice, violets & roses, rich delicate & sweet wet black earth, soft light baking spices, caramel, milk chocolate, figs & dates, amazingly sweet dark minerals, touch of black tar, touch of spice and a rich long elegant dark fruit liqueur finish. I would score this wine higher if it didn't punish my palate and throat with the burning alcohol finish. — 9 years ago
What a surprise for the price point. Great fruit for a young Pinot and smooth as any on the finish. — 10 years ago
Californian Pinot noir at 12.4 degrees alcohol. Perfect if only more wineries could show that level of discipline. Very nice and ripe fruit. Light perfect lunch wine. — 10 years ago

Really enjoyed this as an evening sipper by itself. Subtle notes of the bourbon barrel, fairly well balanced. Would get again, especially for price. — 8 years ago

Obviously biased but this new 2013 Vineyard 36 Thirty Six is an explosive 100% Napa Valley Cabernet. Only going to improve over the next year and will certainly cellar for 7-10

Pale straw colour with hints of green apple. A bouquet of tropical fruits with some herbaceousness and again that green apple edge. Juicy lemon, melon and grapefruit flavours with a light mineral edge and perhaps some dry herbs on the finish. Not overly acidic and although initially quite concentrated it opened up quite quickly. Worth noting that the vineyard's tasting notes advise drinking it within the first 2 years of release. Overall a good value, if atypical, Marlborough (which we found in Costco) though alas not at all to my wife's taste! — 10 years ago
