Pecorino... ohhhh ohh! Pecorino, ohhhh ohh oh! I'm loving this winery. Lemon. See through the sunlight... she wore lemon. But never in the daylight. — 9 years ago

Medium bodied with hints of blackberries, licorice, and burst with energy and sunlight. A juicy Brunello that had me yearning for a steak. — 9 years ago

From pre-phylloxera vines, Taylor's bought a small lot of only three barrels from the 1863 vintage that had been quietly resting in a cellar for well over a century—the producer had the foresight to reserve them when phylloxera swept through the region. An important wine because, as Taylor's staff pointed out, ungrafted vines no longer exist in the Douro. An incredible experience, and one that I felt lucky to have since the winery has fewer than 12 bottles remaining.

There is an incredible, concentrated sweetness on the nose; coffee, vanilla, maple syrup, and dried tobacco leaf. In the mouth, lacquered elegance, a long toffee-hued ribbon slowly unfurling, like removing a sheet from an ancient mahogany bureau, there is dust and warm wood and leather, layered against dates, dried orange skins and burnt sugar. Spiciness and minerality emerge on the finish, filtered sunlight through ancient glass and sea salt captured by time and slow evaporation. — 10 years ago

sublime. it's textured and intense, giving me grapefruit zest, orange blossom, a subtle undertone of pink flowers, and pithy bitterness at the tail end. the acidity is sunlight glinting off sunny blue seas. drink it and love. #bandol #rosé #teamrose #provence — 11 years ago

1961, Riserva. Hasn't moved since vintage (incredibly). Sees the sunlight then comes to Sydney and stops the whole team in our tracks. Brilliant sour cherry. Consistent, persistent tannin. Still so bright and vibrant. With that acid line it could go another 10, or more! 97pts — 11 years ago

This is like that Saumur I once had. It's a lively and beautiful Riesling (yeah, not a Saumur) with all the luscious Riesling things it does, but right in the middle of it is this amazing burst of fresh sunlight on dewy leaves in the morning. So much richness! — 10 years ago

A Bordeaux blend red red plum 20% of the wines from the dusted valley label currant berry fruit. Fresh and bone dry on the finish light red berry fruit with light floral notes. Very good Milton free water closest city 10000 people tho Oregon vineyard 46 th parallel is state line pacific influence enables them to ripen the grapes I the summer.

A tame Sauvignon Blanc, you can tell the sunlight exposure changes this SB from others in cooler climates. Enjoyed it overall though. — 10 years ago

Lemon and green pineapple leap from the glass but so do green apple, smoke, schist, mushroom, lemon pudding aromatics. Green apple and lemon oils draped over an iron structure of immense, polished acidity.tart lime, basil, green onion and of course, white pepper to last and last. Enormous and refined. Bright as sunlight, but nuanced. Amazing on so many levels!! What a pleasure to drink! — 11 years ago

Pineapple upside down cake, waxy peach, crushed rock, almond and orange marmalade. Palate shows honeysuckle, ginger and brown spice, filtered sunlight and optimism. Green melon and tangerine finish. Little jalapeño jelly on the conclusion to close with an exclamation. Medium body makes this perfect for a transitional season. Nice alternative to Chard, with a bit of spice and peachy charm. — 11 years ago

Beautiful yet edgy stuff here, didn't expect to be so thrilled by it. Polished plums with bloody butcher's block undertow. Acidity like perfectly executed guitar distortion. A big fan of de Villaine family Bouzeron when in Burgundy for precisely this type of acidity current. Strong memory of seeking the shade in bright sunlight as a child. Poetry huh -must be a good wine... Love the bottle shape between Burgundy and Bordeaux? 2009 vintage — 11 years ago

Oh snap! This white made from 100% Raffiat de Moncade is a siren with salty-nutty-cheesy nuances spiked with lemon-oil and sunflower-melon swagger. Golden. Leonine. Like sunlight and love shot through a prism. #believeit — 13 years ago
