OMG this was good! The first impression was strong beautiful legs. Next was aroma blend of caramel and vanilla. The first taste is a dark berry blend with blackberry, currant and maybe a little citrus high note. — 9 years ago

Deep garnet color, balanced red and black fruit bouquet, boozy, medium-heavy mouthfeel. Raspberry, plum, and blackberry on the palate, nice long finish with decent sapidity. Loved it with home-cooked beef, pepperoni, sun-dried tomato pizza. And, some sharp cheddar. — 10 years ago

Loved this. A gift from someone whose puppy I evaluated. Drank on Christmas Eve. — 8 years ago
Black fruit- plum, currant and cherry. The herbaceousness is well integrated and not offensive. M acid, body and tannin. A hint of minerality on the palate. Balanced. Would be great paired with food. — 9 years ago

Sipping Fine Wine
A 15th Century tower flanks Chateau Fuisse, a family home whose history is evidenced by a number of 300 year old artifacts and adornment. From a blend of over 20 vineyards, and about 70% sat on oak for 20 months (25% new), the remaining 30% in stainless steel tanks. Aromas of stone fruits with cedar and floral spice notes. On the palate apple and pear flavors with a citrus oak character. Lingering finish, well balanced but a little forward now, ending fresh and crisp with oaky edge. Needs more time to calm. — 6 years ago
