61/27/12 Grenache Syrah Mourvèdre. 595 cases produced. Purple red, medium extracted, very good clarity edging toward inky. Spice, barnyard and black currant notes in nose. Blackberry and plum flavors. An hour later, a cool menthol plum-cherry note (Mourvèdre) emerges. Slight skin bitterness, not much astringency. Black pepper finish, aftertaste. Might benefit from 1 to 2 years additional aging. — 6 years ago

Stellar. Intensely powerful with caramel and roasted apricot notes, yet never heavy. Pretty floral honey aromatics and a lift on the palate. — 8 years ago

Lawd, if you listen...help! Tasted again a week later....this wine is insane. Crazy wide bandwidth of flavor. Tart citrus to super ripe stone fruit. Sunshine in a glass. Like Riesling on acid with sunglasses on! — 11 years ago

Deep gold. Honeyed apple and snowblower on the nose. Rich mouthfeel of pears and peach, yet the finish was quite short. Still, ripe with elegant acid showcasing the vintage. Drink up. — 9 years ago

VDP auction bottling. Hard to describe this one as its weightless and in complete balance. There's no hard edges anywhere, but still one of the most hardcore wines that I've ever tasted. The acid level tips the scales and its tart citrusy profile does include some tropical fruits but this this wine is all about its acid drive and nervous minerality. Unique. — 10 years ago

Austrian Gewürztraminer from 2006, 13.5%. Excellent color, bright and intense. In the nose the botrytis is not too excessive, and there are pleasant notes of eglantine. In the mouth the right balance between sweetness and acidity. — 12 years ago
