Little more depth and spice than the Grenache. Bigger, bolder mixed berry fruit, bigger spice and medium intensity of pepper. — 9 years ago

Petrol, orange rind, big fruit. Sugar acid balance is solid. Slightly tropical. — 10 years ago

Just a really great milk stout. Hard to beat it, especially with the on point addition of nitro. — 10 years ago

Not just a cabernet franc as noted, but also blended with merlot, cab sauvignon, and syrah. A delicious mutt of a wine, with bold depth, tasty fruit notes and a warm satisfying finish. Tried with venison steak, braised bison shortribs and grass-fed beef brisket - good with all! — 10 years ago

A little peppery and slightly tannic. I thought drinking out of my Packer wine glass would be good luck-not so much! Maybe it's the wine! — 9 years ago

Beautiful garnet color with very nice aromas of licorice, coffee, and red fruits on the nose. Medium-to-full-bodied with rich and juicy taste of red cherry, raspberry, creamy vanilla, and hint of basil on the palate. Solid texture, good mouthwatering acidity, smooth & firm tannins, and finish well with nice long length. Delicious & pair well with grilled lamb or duck. — 10 years ago

You can indicate a Côte Rotie of Jamet as 'Burgundian', but can you indicate a Georges Mugneret as 'Jametian' too? A real "iron hand in a velvet glove". Powerful elegance, spices/herbs and a little meaty. Great wine. — 10 years ago

They hardly make any bottles of this wine. They sell out every vintage. Check out the hand signed label. It is a marvelous off-dry white wine made with PX grapes. — 11 years ago

Super yummy Vouvray! Focused and clean yet with an underlying sense of concentrated, fruity, aromatic richness as well. I've had a couple Vouvrays before this and they were either too sweet and unbalanced or unfortunately, corked. So even though I know I dig Loire Chenin, I hadn't ever paid much attention to Vouvrays before due to those negative (and partially unfair; can't really control if a wine is gonna be corked or not before you even get a hold of it) associations I had. But I get Vouvray now, for sure. Macerated peaches and pineapple, yellow apple, chamomile, wet stone and a tiny bit of wet wool, a bit of honeysuckle and white florals, and a tiny bit of subtle cardamom spice. A small bit of RS, barely off-dry, but it's kept totally in balance and still finishes "dry", lean, focused, and crisp due to the nice high, mouthwatering acidity. Pleasant medium body. Drank with a burger topped with Gorgonzola and fresh jalapeños since it was all I had on hand to drink with it, and it was definitely an unusual/atypical pairing but the RS and acid definitely worked well with richness of the cheese and the spice of the jalapeño and cheese. Wasn't a perfect pairing but much better than expected. Will definitely buy again. I don't think I've had a Kermit Lynch-imported wine that I didn't like. — 10 years ago

1964: Fountain of youth. Brackish yet inviting nose. In the middle palate a pearl of sweet fruit. Had to pace myself to not drink as fast as my hand was drawn toward it. Grip on the finish, what else could you want? — 11 years ago

I don't often drink beer but I was very thirsty after completing the Making Strides walk in support of finding a cure for breast cancer. This beer was scrumptious. Thank you Tap 42 Restaurant in Ft Lauderdale. — 13 years ago

Great taste of summer, but great wine any meal. Try with a winning hand in poker or take to share on the top of a hill with a great view. Balanced , smooth — 13 years ago
