Delicious dessert wine! Notes of apricot, stone fruit, honey, candied orange and lemon, & vanilla. Sweet and lightly syrupy, but still very easy to drink. — 2 months ago

Crisp aroma of yellow apple, pear, & petroleum. Soft, almost buttery notes of lemon zest, yellow apple, pear, honeysuckle, & residual sugar. Crisp, yet sweet. Delicious wine. Had this next to the regular Boxler Pinot Gris, and both are phenomenal. This one leans a bit sweeter though. — a year ago

Creamy notes of golden apple, buttered bread, & vanilla on the nose. Buttery like a Chardonnay up front. Acid & green notes on the mid-palate—kiwi, green grass, green apple, & pear. Crisp, honeyed apple finish with notes of honeysuckle, white flower, caramel, & vanilla custard. Unique wine, and pairs beautifully with my spicy Massaman curry. — 2 years ago

Plum, cocoa, raspberry, and subtle dust on the nose. Rich, yet dry. Notes of cocoa powder, ash, dried raspberry, unsweet dark chocolate, blackberry, subtle cranberry, tar, & earth. Medium body & tannins. Beautiful balance of fruit & wooly dryness; alcohol hides well; pairs wonderfully with food. — 6 months ago

This is a delightful wine! Medium-minus body, ripe fruit, low acid, & easy to drink. Notes of red fruit juice, purple fruit, smooth raisin, bread pudding, & very subtle clove. Fruit-forward. Port without the cloying sweetness or sticky, viscous body. — 2 years ago

Rustic, earthy, and a bit of funk. Juicy, yet tannic and dusty. Notes of cranberry, raspberry, & plum. Medium-minus acidity. — 3 years ago

Smooth raspberry, dusted cocoa, blueberry, & red currant throughout the palate. Leathery with subtle smoke. More subdued than I remember. The alcohol hides well; I never would’ve guessed it was 16.1% ABV. Enjoyable sipper. — 3 years ago

Blueberry, tobacco, raspberry, and tar throughout the nose & palate. Tannic & hot. More raspberry, cherry, & blackberry notes as it opens. Becomes velvety, almost robust. Alcohol lingers on the finish. — 10 months ago

Holy cow, this is an exceptional wine. Inky color with hints of rust and electric pink in the rim. Soft aroma of raspberry tart, strawberry jam, red cherry, red currant, tobacco, & subtle violet. Pure silk on the palate, with a velvety grip on the finish. Notes of stewed plum, jammy red fruit, chocolate, subtle baking spice, and purple candy. Absolutely beautiful wine. Lovely to sip, but big enough to stand up to a hearty protein. Thank you, Ashley! — 2 years ago

My least favorite of the 8 Years so far. This one is hot, almost sharp. It’s jammy, but has such a bite too it. Notes of blueberry, plum, & raspberry with a sharp dark chocolate finish. Tannins linger on the finish. — 3 years ago
