This is 100 percent Cabernet Franc that is grown at 820 feet and spent 12 months in French Oak. The nose shows; ripe blackberries, strawberries, dark cherries, vanilla, cinnamon, red florals, red licorice and soft loamy dry soils. Tannins are M+. Blackberries, dark cherries, cocoa powder, expresso, dark chocolate, poached strawberries, dark moist earth, a little leather and beautiful red & pink florals. This wine will stun some palates after 8-10 years in the bottle. — 9 years ago

Fresh and racy approach to Chardonnay which could use a little more creaminess to carry it through the finish as it falls a bit short. Otherwise nice stuff. — 9 years ago
Vibrant & lovely Cabernet. Herby, minty Cabernet, with lifted dark plummy fruit. Sweet spice with cassis & blackberry flavours. Gorgeous. — 10 years ago

Sticking with the pinot's I have opened the 2013 Tabali Talinay Coastal Limestone Vineyard Pinot Noir from Chile.
On the nose there are beautiful fruit and complex notes of cherry, cranberry, raspberry, floral notes of violet, vanilla, light oak and an earthy component.
On the palate a wonderful notes of cranberry, raspberry, cherry, forest soil and a bit of minerality.
This is a medium bodied wine with medium + acidity and medium fine tannins that leads to a lovely long crisp finish with good fruit right to the end. It just doesn't seem to want to quit and it will carry you right into the next sip. I am totally into this wine and may have to go and purchase a few more bottles. Have a wonderful rest of your week and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 9 years ago

Some lovely minerality and lemon on the front. Some roundness but not to rich. This is a fantastic Fall white. A lot of barely ripe peach and lemon makes this just bracing enough without being to edgy. Love it — 9 years ago

Young and slightly closed up. Lots of smells such as light pepper/spice, blackberry, plum, bramble, cigar box, sweet pipe tobacco, black olive, cured meat etc. On the palate, still dense with black fruits, a touch of oakiness, pum and peppery spice. A full bodied wine with a good length length. Overall, whilst not yet developed, excellent. — 7 years ago
