Hits the bullseye again. Maybe it could be wilder and funkier and whatever but everything here is perfectly tuned. — 4 years ago

Spicy and herbaceous, smells like an open field. Little to no fruitiness, tastes like a wilder version of Syrah. @Niche Niche — 6 years ago

VERY interested to try this wine as I just bought a 3-pack a little while back. This Randy Hester wine is doing GREAT things. 100% Texas Tempranillo sourced from Tx High Plains (Bingham and Farmhouse Vineyards both claim source). The sharp bite that seems to be present in a lot of Texas Temps. Not sure if it's the soil that adds this note or what, but I believe it is because it is not there in a lot of hill country AVA fruit. Either way, this tempranillo did not have that tart bite on the front. Lovely expressive tempranillo perfume came rolling out of the glass. I do know that Texas temp really does like to sit, and this one is a baby. The thing I noted most about this wine was its structure. This. Will. Age. Well. It just needs a little more time for integration. This solidified my happiness of a 3-pack purchase, and glad I was able to get a sneak peak. Really neat project wine by Randy Hester. If anyone knows how to manipulate the "wilder side" of grapes and tame the wild beast, it is him! — 8 years ago

Actually really well enjoying this.
Smells good and subtle but nothing crazy. Typical Form north italy, taste first light and easy but then come a much wilder and tougher taste, quite wild and a bit smokey. — 8 years ago

Wowow. This is singing. So musky and sexy. Feral and tart as hell. Concentrated, transparent red and purple fruited Grenache brilliance. Wilder than Rhone- so much Provençal garrigue.

Not too much brett; this bottle, at least, is very clean, and f-ing awesome. — 4 years ago

2020 spring. This was also delicious - to me Teroldego is lot like Cabernet Franc, which makes the latter a natural for Foradori. A little greener and wilder than the Kepos — 5 years ago

Can you ever have too many Burgundies to taste? Wonderful trade tasting. The Gros Frere et soeur wines don’t get additional sulphur so they seem older and wilder than many of the wines at the tasting. The Vougeot has the stuffing to balance the wildness. — 6 years ago

Tasting the 2014, it's yum, not as subtle as 2013 and other wines from Montebruno. Wilder, animal, more smokiness? — 8 years ago

Really impressive biodynamic, skin-contact petit manseng from Virginia. I hadn’t anticipated stringing those words together. There’s enough wilder aspects and mouthfeel richness to pair well with funky cheeses, along with a surprisingly bracing run of acidity on the finish. — 4 years ago

If you don’t mind a little can flavor (you’re use to beer in a can, right?) then this isn’t bad. Refreshing, clean no off flavors. Great for picnics the beach etc. — 6 years ago

A mostly merlot Super Tusacan, some cab sauv and franc as well. Has a gentle smoothness that covers up some wilder, almost grilled notes. Nothing meaty, but has a good chew.

The value on this is terrific. — 6 years ago

This wine is doing rather well, yet you can tell that it's starting to hang on to the edge of the hill while simultaneously being pushed over by the later vintages and Father Time. Poured a darker straw color into the glass. The nose was dried herb and a little bit of tropical fruit. The entry was more rounded, but immediately a honey and dried herb note kind of hit. The fruit was more of a wilder, bramblier tropical fruit note with a touch of butter. This wine seems to be going more of the buttery route and more of the tertiary / mushroom way, as this sort of seemed to develop on the finish more when it was near room temp than when it was cold (initially it was served rather cold). I rather enjoyed this wine due to its complexity, although I cannot say that would be the case in the next 2-3 years as I feel it is starting its downward slide. Drink now. — 7 years ago

If Italian wines are my love then consider this little gem from the south of France to be a tryst. This wine is dusty, wild and uninhibited, packing an oh-so-sensual touch right out of the bottle. The robe, a delightfully deep crimson, is soon abandoned as it gives way to a softer and more supple hue that suggests more surprises are on the way. Light and musty on the tongue, the more you play with it the wilder it gets. The slower you take it, the flavors of licorice, currant, spice box, and pork fat on the finish reward your patience. Drink now, as this southern Rhone beauty is at peak maturity--just don't let your true love find out... — 8 years ago
