I’ve always had a soft spot for New Zealand Chardonnay and this wine from Martinborough supports the theory. Mid Lemon in colour. Dusty citrus and honey notes. These descriptors transfer through to the palate with white peach and medium acid. A touch of pineapple juice. Another classy Chardonnay from New Zealand. — 5 years ago

Corn nuts and funk on open. Sticking by my what smells bad, tastes good theory! Opened to aromas of gardenia and caramel. Lemon pith, hazelnut, and ash. Long, crisp finish. — 7 years ago

Beautiful. The lighter side of a 100% Syrah. Taste of liquid dark red roses. Finish is a bit short and clamps down... but may resolve in a a few years. Just a taste, but I bought a bottle to test that theory. Good value. — 9 years ago

the wine drinks to me like it can age for another five years. 2009 vintage just by personal tasting theory was an excellent year for coach insignia. Could be little a hot for other people's taste but i think they did a good job of balancing it. Nice ripe dark plum and dark cherry, with a nice combination of vanilla on the nose and palate. Super big body with pronounced tannins. I taste the wine a second day it's drinking even better. The ripe fruits you got from the first day of drinking are slowly turning into savory herbaceous notes. Lovely example of a coach felps insignia Napa wine — 10 years ago

Love it. Still a little co2 on day 2. A little funky and super light. 90 gamay from Loire 10 poulsard. Beguet is becoming a new fav producer. Chambers wins again. Reminds me of ganevats many Vdfs but less than half the price. — 8 years ago

In my humblish opinion, Italian white wines, at least at this price point, or even considerably higher lack finesse. This wine overturns that theory. Simply put; awesome and aromatic. Underipe stone fruit, citrus, mineral, and a slight bit of CO2, which lifts the flavors to the stratosphere. Currently, at my fav Italian spot , having Rosemary roasted chicken. The acidity in this vino is cutting through the chicken skin like a torch. Me is happily in the in the grips of the Italiano food wine buzz zone.

Hands down the best Gamay I have ever tasted from outside Beaujolais. Reasonably priced, great packaging and is a 10/10 on the chug-ablility scale. It expresses the spicy side of Gamay which confirms Parr's theory on the decomposing granite and volcanic clay-loam soil that this and Brouilly both grow in. Good edge and extortion here, so don't worry about the carbonic maceration.  — 10 years ago
