Vermentino. Citrus, lemon. Definitely has more medium body (maybe influenced by stone fruit notes) with medium acid (want more actually). Good minerality. Easy drinking. — 7 years ago

Such a huge fan of this winery. Uncut grass, a clean barn, white flowers, honeysuckle. On the palate, medium-light, brine. Well made. Rustic yet fresh. — 8 years ago

9.3

Plush aromas of cedar, cassis and blackberry cobbler on the nose. Rich flavors of blackberries, dark plums, cassis and cooking spices envelope your taste buds. The tannins are silky smooth and the acidity is perfect. One of the best Merlots I have ever tried. — 8 years ago

Awesome recommendation from our local wine guy. Hadn't heard of if before, apparently it's a newer project from Kirk Venge. It's the Chardonnay but Delectable doesn't seem to have it in their database. Complex nose and palate of flowers, minerals, slate, apricots, mint, brown butter, blah blah blah. Basically, too many to list, but I like how it tastes a little different each time. Really nice acid and viscosity. Sure to age well. — 9 years ago

3liter,
Not the Venge we’re used to, it reminds me of a 1990’s cab, ruby red like an old Heitz, not fruit forward. Good but old school — 6 years ago

Blackberries, cherries at the start then smoothly blends into a spicy tone with touch of chocolate, oak, and followed by medium tannins — 7 years ago

Pure pleasure. Rich black plums and vanilla, smokey mesquite. More than happy for everyone to keep leaving beautiful mature merlot on the shelf for me to find. Oh yeah and shout-out to @Ellen Clifford for inspiring me to pop this — 7 years ago

Still has a sweetness reminiscent of the venge scout's honor. Just wish they dialed it back a little. — 7 years ago

Not as dense as the venge version, which is mountain fruit beefed up by charbono skins. This is more typical sangio, with good spice and sweet bright fruit. Fun wine. Very rich. Prefer this over the b zin, which was a bit cloying. — 8 years ago

I wanted something nice tonight. This was perfect. Winemaker Kurt Venge offers a Burgundian style to Sonoma. Red fruits and plush velvet finish. Definitely worth seeking out this off the beaten path wine. — 5 years ago
