Wine Trees

Ata Rangi

Crimson Martinborough Pinot Noir 2013

Mid ruby, smooth ripe blackberries, dry, fine tannins. Creamy, spicy warm dark red fruity berries, smooth rounded flavours with a long finish.
A good wine that celebrates and indeed supports the conservation of the rata trees, whose bloom features on the label.

Crane Vineyard Merlot 2008

Delicious merlot, grown by eucalyptus trees so it has a very unique flavor. — 12 years ago

Grapy Riesling taste without the sweetness. — 12 years ago

Poiré Authentique Pear Cider

Made from younger trees. I prefer the more expensive version with the elder trees though. This one was about $16-$17, so $8 cheaper from Arlequin. — 13 years ago

Domaine Reine Juliette

Coteaux du Languedoc Picpoul-de-Pinet Picpoul Blanc 2013

Very light in color. Faint aroma of linden trees in bloom and pear. Bracing acidity and some minerality. Tingles through the finish. Makes a clean getaway. 2013 — 11 years ago

Seriously elegant cider made from pears grown on 300 year old biodynamically farmed trees. Refreshing, mineral, clean and nuanced. — 11 years ago

One of the best Santa Rita Hills pinots I have ever had. Smells like a burgundy. Rose bushes and cherry trees. Amazing! — 11 years ago

I know you can buy it off of the mailing list.

Samsara Wine Co.

Rancho la Viña Vineyard Pinot Noir 2010

In your face flavor and depth not quite expected of a 2010. Fruity like a California wine, but much more complex than most wines that focus on the fruit-forward. Has a tangy edge to it, but also a loamy warmth that you would probably smell in a humid, misty forest that gets plenty of rain and has lots of moss growing on the trees. Easy to drink on its own, medium-bodied. — 12 years ago
