Deep Crimson with reddish purple rim. Lovely complex perfume of Black Cherries Earth Stalks Twigs and Light Pepper from partial or full whole bunch ferment I suspect. Palate of cherries with earthy notes of Medium Intensity. This is their less expensive General Cuvée in contrast to their individual Vineyard Cuvees like Sexton Applejack Tarraford etc. From the much lauded 2015 vintage in the Yarra. 2015 seems to be one of those great world wide vintages like 1990. Great in most parts of Australia and New Zealand. Also in Bordeaux Burgundy and France generally it appears. Mediterranean countries. Not sure about North or South America? — 8 years ago

What are the odds... 2 different wines made with Braucol in the same week. This is really pretty, aromatic and super fresh. Thanks Cynthia Sexton for the selection! — 12 years ago
Between Applejack and Sexton, this displays strawberries all day, with twists of mushroom funk, sandalwood spice, and red cherries. Good — 6 years ago

2014 was delicious. You all know I am a red wine drinker, but this one is a must in the summer heat and especially by the pool. Easy to drink, kick back and enjoy. Cheers! — 8 years ago
Had to sink a bottle before this little Chianti... Pour down the sink... This is a lovely Chianti it has all the traits of a quality Chianti.... One for the house rack.... The joy it gives me when it hits the back of my throat is only rivalled by some of the worlds greatest sporting moments: Maradona, Woods,Federer,Carberry,Sexton,Tyson, Cluxton and Giggs — 11 years ago

Phenomenal, really nice expression of Sebastopol Hills and its higher elevation subtlety. Dark fruit, spices, good structure based on smooth tannins and solid acidity. — 5 years ago
