This an extremely interesting wine. I was surprised not to get the usual overwhelming wine from Spain. This is a classic Mountain wine, supple and sumptuous, interesting flavors. For my taste I would prefer a bit more acidity, however. — 7 years ago
Ein herrlich erfrischender wein, dabei sehr vielschichtig und complex im Geschmack. Absolute Empfehlung. — 8 years ago
I really like this wine. It's like a southern French red and goes really well with food. Not as powerful as some Spanish reds but I like that. — 8 years ago
Was absolutely delicious, until I tasted the Shotfire Shiraz 2012 also from Thorn-Clarke, which bested it. — 9 years ago
Spicy, sweet, balanced, seductive pinot. Best 08 I have had next to Beaux Freres Beaux Freres. Exceptional. — 10 years ago
Citrusy. Tasty. Nice summer wine. — 10 years ago
Perhaps my favorite red wine produced in the contiguous south of Italy. This vintage is all over the place with camphor, creosote, tar, tobacco. I have to meet these people this year. I have an amazing story about this wine. Nic and Diane, do you remember the amazing "sleep under a bridge meal"? — 10 years ago
Nice and smoky with a slight earthy aftertaste. Not the best I've had but I would purchase this one again. — 11 years ago
What some people call #minerality I can call high #acidity and hydrolic stress. Long story short, this is a nice #grenacheblanc and if you like gasoline aromas you’re going to dig this wine — 7 years ago
In physics, the Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotating reference frame.
In wine, Coriolis is a Willamette Valley Pinot Noir from Maggie Harrison's Antica Terra.
The back label says "The mathematical expression for the Coriolis force appeared in an 1835 paper by French scientist Gaspard-Gustave Coriolis, in connection with the theory of water wheels. This wine takes the name Coriolis and with it the symbol of the water wheel: a manifestation of the conversion of free-flowing energy into useful forms of power. One hundred percent of the profits from the sale of this wine are donated to charity. In this way this wine supports the conversion of ideas into powerful actions that serve a greater good."
One of those charities is Phil Knight's Cancer Challenge, so I guess you could say this wine is helping to cure cancer. If that's not reason enough to drink it, the wine is drop dead gorgeous. Opens with wild fruit purity of cherry, red currant and even then pushes towards raspberry, which leads into a salty minerality that plays really well off its subtle floral and citrus tones. While it's loaded with tart fruit and even citrus acidity, it finishes with length and exceptional silkiness, a testament to its balance. Beautiful. — 7 years ago
Well balanced and full bodied. I want more! — 8 years ago
Needs to breathe. After an hour aromas are much more pleasant. Smooth soft vanilla and a dark fruit I am unable to identify. Plum? Not too sweet. Not too tart. Not smoky. I think its a nicely complex for the price. Would recommend and buy again — 9 years ago
I love this. Funky and ridiculously aromatic on the front — 9 years ago
Have I had better, yes. Is this worth 6.99 at total wine... I would pay twice that and would've been pleased. Med-full bodied, but very light drinking. Tiny baby tannins. Fruit is pronounced, but not overpowering. Good table wine for everyday meats. — 10 years ago
Visited this winery last September, instant olfactory memory. Lush dark fruits, silky structure, balanced tannins. I miss Tuscany. — 10 years ago
Delicious! My girlfriend shared this gift with me just to drink. Went well with a hummus snack though and I would definitely seek out this gem again. Would love to try it with beef or red pasta. — 10 years ago
Fruitat i amb còs , saborós i amb toc de fusta , gens àcid i potent en boca. Molt agradable i al solet de La Sirena perfecte. — 10 years ago
I liked this way more than the 2011. It's really good and very representative of its region. — 11 years ago
Happy to find this wine when I did. Showing tons of “other than fruit” characteristics on the nose, this wine smells older than it is. Little bit of bret, but the good kind! Dark black fruit and olive tapenade waft out of the glass while blackberry seed, tobacco and black cherry leaf the way on the palate. The body is full in the middle but lean on the edges because of the bright acidity which lifts the wine throughout. Drink now through 7-13 years! — 7 years ago
Bigger than I usually enjoy but worked well with spicy Italian food. — 7 years ago
Excellent roussanne from Maggie Harrison at Antica Terra. Nose has great notes of honeysuckle and other aromas that I can only describe as classic roussanne (because I’m just not good enough to ascribe aromatics). The palate has a terrific oily character to it, but was dominated by primary, relatively unevolved flavors. Still really good, but I suspect this is going to get so much better with a few more years in the bottle. Let it sit. — 7 years ago
More acidic than I like. Body is a bit off. — 8 years ago
My pic didn't turn out as well as @Nick Davis . Check out his. This is a cidery, wild, singular take on PX & Muscat that I wouldn't have thought possible if I hadn't drunk it. — 9 years ago
Excellent full bodied and bold red blend. I got it from a local wine and cheese pairing event. This is not a readily available wine, but if you can find it buy it! — 10 years ago
One of the better Cour-Cheverny wines I've tasted: a statement that says everything but also nothing. Less unpleasantly oxidative than Daridan, more interesting than de Montcy and Cazin and at much frendlier price than Henri Marionnet. For the money I think this is the best that's out there-- Golden apple skin, celery, tarragon. — 10 years ago
Si el deixeu oxigenar-se una bona estona, trobareu fruits vermells i minerals, i fins i tot un punt de cafè. En boca es robust i rodó, torrat, te un puntet d'aspror i un final tranquil i no massa llarg. Molt bo! — 11 years ago

Color : White
Wine estate : Coca I Fitó
Designation : Terra Alta
Name : Jaspi d'Or
Country : Spain
Vivino : 4/5
Note : With 80% of Grenache Blanc, it's almost like a white Châteauneuf. A golden robe, a peachy nose. Once in the mouth, the floral side is revealed with candied citrus notes. Beautiful minerality and expression. — 7 years ago
