Dark near-black purple that clings to the glass. Blackberry, black blueberry, caramel on the nose and full palate. Medium acidity. Medium tannins (appropriate for its age). Lengthy dark finish. Fine New World representation of the variety. — 10 years ago

The King Kong of Syrah. Hugh black fruit. Big acidity and tannic+ that will develop complexity with age. Adventurous now, but will hit its prime 2017-2019.  — 11 years ago

I love finding new, affordable wine that tastes great! I love this Pinot! (And I love the Under $8 price at Sam's Club!) By the way, the guys from the band Train helped create this! — 11 years ago

Even if the company that makes this didn't take me on a trip to Spain, I'd still rate it highly. A little sweeter the tone, but it's the Bourbon barrel not the yeast. A nice change of pace from typical ales. — 11 years ago

I really love this Riesling. It's funny because if you have blue fish Riesling and than you have this they taste so similar. (Although blue fish is apparently medium sweet but it's not that sweet ) anyway I had this at a restaurant and I fell in love. It goes with everything and it's light I finally just found it in a store I'm so excited! I wish more places had this. This is for people who like dry Riesling. — 11 years ago

Though it didn't have the usual buttery oakiness I've come to expect from Mer Soleil Chardonnay, I was thrilled to taste such rich fruitiness. Silver comes bottled in a "cement" bottle to remind us that it was aged in small concrete tanks from France. This allows, like oak, a trace of oxygen to seep in which helps to enhance the flavor. Very bright fresh fruit characters. It was opened at our home in Bensalem during a romantic Valentine's Day dinner with 2 other couples. — 12 years ago

You can really taste Howell Mt. here. The age worthiness of these cabs is amazing. The 1997 Magnum was highly concentrated, but every sip was an absolute pleasure that sent the palette running in all directions. — 11 years ago

Fantastic summer BBQ or steak wine. Very dark ruby red with a nose that is a mix of freaks black and red berries...blackberry, raspberry, blueberry, a hint of forest floor, cloves, and leather. Loads of fruit but not cooked or jammy. Similar profile on the palate with medium tannins and plenty of acid to keep what might otherwise be a heavy wine very fresh. — 11 years ago

This Valdiguié rules. It is noticeably richer and more viscous than most of the Valdiguiés that I've had, but it was gorgeous. @crusewine — 11 years ago

Very tasty! Smooth. A little spicy. Is that plum? — 13 years ago
