Tasting at Copain. Beautiful winery with some sweeping views of Sonoma. Again no bottles so just the menu. The Laurel grades was an amazing wine, parcel of land by the ocean. It had that salt/mineral undertone and was crisp. Tidal wave was also very good and similar to a savignon blanc. The high rock Syrah was very good they let’s us try an 09 to give an idea of how it evolves. Solid wine. The 2014 was too tannic to get a good feel for the wine. — 7 years ago

Deep inky purple color almost like Syrah. Noses are simply intense and beautiful, characterized by smoky oaks and dark fruits like cherries. Taste is silky and powerful. Flavors of cherries, oaky notes come in first wave, while acidity and graphite notes come in second. Layers of flavors mix really well. Aftertaste is long and enjoyable, with graphite on the back of the tongue, oaky notes all around, and string tannins reminding you that the wine had the ability to age. If price is right stock them up. — 9 years ago

Consistly one of the top values in Bordeaux. This 01 is over delivering the vintage and my expectation. Rich dark cassis. Ripe blackberries, blueberries, strawberries paint the background. Rich wet dark earth, black tea, velvety leather, nice baking spices and a long rich elegant finish. It's hit it's stride with even better evolution ahead. Just got a wave of warm chocolate fudge brownie with raspberries. — 9 years ago

Fantastic structure (big acid, firm medium tannin) on this wine; has plenty of years to develop. Jumps out with a tart red berry wave before the sun-dried tomato profile rises from underneath. Savory, sweet herbs throughout. Lovely. — 9 years ago

Absolutely one of the best Chardonnays under $20; this wine was perfect; everything you love about oaky Chardonnay without being too much. Buttery, but balanced! — 10 years ago

Fruit jumps out at you. Then a wave of smokiness hits you. Cherries and red fruit dominate in this most un-cab like red blend. Dense. Deep red color. Good bottle overall. Drank 2013 — 8 years ago

I shouldn't have been surprised when I popped this bottle open that it turned out to be a good wine. The best Merlots I have every tasted have come from the Walla Walla WA area. This is no exception. — 9 years ago
