Mmm. . . The family picked this up at a tasting at our new favorite butcher shop. More on the sweet side for a pinot but still flavorful. Hmmm may have to check my Napster for an accompanying Zac Brown hit for ambience. — 6 years ago

Delicious Pinot with a nice light lingering jam taste that's easy to to drink and is classic Willamette Valley. Kate and I will definitely be getting more of this — 8 years ago
I have opened the 2010 Chateau Cantemerle Haute-Medoc. 52% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 8% Cabernet Franc and 5% Petit Verdot.
The nose upon first opening is a little tight and at first not willing to show its true self. After awhile this wine starts to open and its true self becomes obvious. With vigorous swirling the red fruit comes through. There is cherry, strawberry, plum, red currant, herbaceous notes, mocha, sweet licorice, sweet oak and violet floral notes.
On the palate we have black cherry, strawberry, plum, raspberry, herbaceousness, mint, slight oak notes and crushed gravel.
The wine is medium to full bodied, medium + acidity, medium + sandy tannins that leads to a long lingering enjoyable finish. This wine is everything I look for in a good Left Bank Bordeaux. Drink now or cellar for another 10 years. Have a great start to your work week and please be safe. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 8 years ago
This is a blend of 52% Malbec 36% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12% petit Verdot. Spicy and earthy aroma and deep inky flavor with blackberries, plums and chocolate. Long rich finish with strong tannins — 8 years ago
Fun fresh and fruity. Pretty sweet. Nice bubbles. Super cheap. Good balcony and sunshine all day wine — 5 years ago
Nimble, funky jaminess - the opposite of what you’d expect of a Cali Zin with almost 14% abv, in the best possible way. Very much in harmony and for my money, Scholium at its accessible best. — 7 years ago
