William bottles one of the best Grenache Blanc world-wide. Brine and dried green herbs on the nose. The herbs carry to the palate with flavors of melon and Asian pear. — 6 years ago

Nose is vanilla ice cream and and raspberries. Tastes beautiful at first with more fruity raspberry and vanilla cream goodness. As it develops it gets drier and more leathery. Delicious. — 2 years ago

February 20, 2020. Picked up a couple Spanish wines on sale to try. This one’s a winner! Full bodied, dark red, full of ripe dark fruit and complexity. Let it open up and you will be rewarded. — 4 years ago

Very good Zinfandel that would go with most any grilled meats from burgers to filets. Also, good breads and hard cheeses. This one is fruity, feels good in your mouth and very little tannins. Definitely looking forward to my next bottle! — 7 months ago
