Lemon, peach, rose nose, very well balanced complex flavors, strawberry — 5 years ago
Not my favorite from vinca minor. It is good expression of fresh Pinot but not super complex. Will see with some more bottle age. — 5 years ago
Very floral, acid, oak and sour cherry on the nose, fruity and slightly effervescent with a smooth tannic finish - funky blend! — 6 years ago

Beautiful lighter bodied cab. I get tart cherries and a ton of floral notes, ?linden?. A touch of herbaceous tones. Really well balanced and approachable now. — 9 years ago
Vinca minor babrak vineyard merlot/cab franc. 2014. Just a ton of wet stone, dried cranberries, and pepper. Aftertaste has a jolly rancher cherry quality. Interested to see how this evolves overnight. — 9 years ago
Simple. Strawberries, light, ethereal. — 5 years ago
Holy funk! I forget the story but man is this stone fruit for days but really juicy with a acidic bitterness like apple cider. Also some melon, herbs, saline. Crazy complex. This is for those orange wine lovers! — 5 years ago
Best Carignan I’ve had. So drinkable but great complexity, excellent with food or without. Some cherries, anise, hint of cream, brick/dirt, good tannin. Probably has a lot of time in the bottle to age. — 5 years ago
had less then 48 hours in bucharest, Romania.
managed a legendary (ok-ish) white blend, one indigenous white glass and one indigenous red glass.
all was nice but nothing to write home about.
managed to grab a bottle of this cheapo pinot noir pet nat rose at the airport for an unfair price(10 euro which is 30% more then easily found price in a simple internet search)
11% ABV
pale pink with tiny bubbles. 👀
mostly bread crumbs, lemon and cherry👃
medium minus body.
high bright acidity.
a bit of funk with lemon, pear and those sour cherries again 👄
light 🎯
not too bad. balanced but not exciting.
not as good as an israely pet nat rose i had not so while ago, but that was more than double the Price.
but it's quaffable bubbles and doesn't get in your way.
excellent vfm. ridiculous price (about 25 nis).
had it with ordinary 🍕 hut ordered for the kids.
they got along but i see no future for them. — 6 years ago
Vinca minor 2017 Mendocino Hawkeye ranch old vine carignan rose. Flowers, strawberries, lemongrass. Just perfect. — 7 years ago
This is big fruit, dark cherry, cocoa, spices, and dried fruit. This will be a great holiday wine. Especially given the 13% Abv for a petite Syrah. — 9 years ago

SL wine. Chilled light red. Like fossil and fawn! — 5 years ago
This is soil, grape, and sun, coombsville merlot. A product of vinca minor winery. So young! I opened at 2 pm and now it is opening up 4 hours later. I get flowers and herbs on the nose. Also raisins. Palate is nice merlot with cassis, herbs, red berries, and just the slightest cedar box. Lovely. — 5 years ago

Vinca Minor bubbly/bubbly 2020 nouveau with Carignan and Sauvignon blanc. A lot of similar flavors to his rose although has that fermented grape juice flavor of nouveau. Tons of peach, pear, a bit of tropical fruit, a bucketful of different minerals/rocks, and a long finish for such a young wine. — 4 years ago
