Nice red wine from Finger Lakes. Smooth and velvety, a little fruit, a little wood. Easy to sip and pairs well with cheese. — 4 years ago

Very good. Nice red fruit, but not too much. Delicious — 5 years ago
2020 fall. Consistent with other recent bottles. I find this style very drinkable (which you would figure considering how much we’ve been putting away), and it’s quite versatile, but as someone who doesn’t generally like oaky wine outside of old school Rioja (and white Burgundy to a point), I have to remember to avoid pairings that make the oak taste bitter — 5 years ago

We really enjoyed this. Drank like a cab with cab frank. Wonder what grapes it is? — 3 years ago

100% Cabernet Franc Rose’. Beautiful light salmon color. Pronounced mineral on the nose and pallet with hints of watermelon and a bit of dark cherry, strawberry and citrus. A little bit of pepper spice. Medium tangy acidity and a crunchy texture. A small amount of heft but still light bodied. Very “Loire-like.” Revisited in June 2020. Nice! — 3 years ago
Crisp and not overly dry or fruity. Very tasty and reasonable — 4 years ago
Had 2018 vintage with Turkey dinner. At first there was bitter aftertaste but it settled down in a few minutes and was surprisingly good — 5 years ago

Here is a fabulous 99 point wine by Robert Parker.
Dark ruby in color with a short reddish rim.
Great nose of blueberries, blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, cedar, earth, vanilla, Mediterranean spices, espresso, cola, light herbs, chocolates, tobacco and black pepper.
Full bodied, smooth and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry and fruity on the palate with blackberries, black cherries, figs, cedar, chocolates, vanilla, licorice, spices, tobacco, herbs, light earth, cola and peppercorn.
Long finish with round tannins and tangy cherries.
This is a gorgeous Cabernet Sauvignon based Bordeaux blend from Napa Valley.
Showing nice balance and a great mouthfeel. Round and rich. Elegant and smooth.
This 22 year old still has a lot of power in it, and will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 10 years.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 2 hours of airtime.
So soft and powerful, with a great nose. This is a gorgeous wine right now.
A blend of 89% Cabernet Sauvignon, 8% Petit Verdot and 3% Malbec. Aged in all new French oak barrels for 24 months.
13.9% alcohol by volume.
96 points.
$250. — 3 years ago
Strong cherry aromas and flavors, very mild acid from the tart cherry and some mild but present tannins. Very food friendly. A blend of 4 grapes (Öküzgözü, Bogazkere, Alicante, Carignan) made in Turkey. — 4 years ago

One of my favorite French pinots — 6 years ago
It’s no CdP but a respectable #GSM blend, a little more assertive on spice than smooth fruit. — 7 years ago

Enjoyed this one with an Armenian Lahmajun flatbread. Some raisin, blueberry, black cherry and something floral (hibiscus?) on the nose. Lighter body with a light tannic finish. Picking up some raspberry, cherry and green apple in the middle. Paired incredibly well with the lamb flatbread tonight. Really enjoyed this. — 9 months ago
