A touch overworked for my taste. Tar, currant, mustard oil, and violet. Keeping with the archetypal Cab franc, the middle of the palette is hollow. Good acid here. — 8 years ago

Nice nose, cassis, lamb fat, cloves. Lots of acid in the mouth, enough where the rest of the wine is a bit lost. Tasted like a sweet tart! Fun #ilwine — 8 years ago

Simple expressive most of white nectarine, honey, apricot and rose petal. Surprisingly restrained sugar but feels like there is not enough acid to stand up to the sweet, has a marked peach gummy flavor . Generally thin mouth feel. #ilwine — 8 years ago

Starts with a touch of burnt match and rubber, and onion that blew off after a few. Fruit on the nose is a huge dark berry, and very big and jammy in the mouth. #wine #amonra — 8 years ago

Rocking Italian Vino here. Good mouthfeel and drying tannins, probably a touch young but hard to tell with this non-vintages guy. — 8 years ago

Just not that interesting. Extracted a touch too far, too much acid and structure for the fruit. — 8 years ago

Color made me leery, but the nose and palate were surprisingly good. Visually this is the most disappointing commercial wine I have ever opened, tasting on the other hand, this guy was right on, Dill, pencil lead, and strawberries. #tinsheets #color #oops #NYwine — 8 years ago
