9.5

Crystal coloration, with hints of yellow colored deep within. Nose is actually prominent, with notes of tart stonefuit, specifically peach, African cucumber, and sharp acidity despite the age. Palate doesn’t show any age or loss of acidic zing! Fresh and dry, with a long tingle that lasts long after the sip. Bought on our honeymoon, tasted and purchased on site, and popped to celebrate the birth of our first child. — 6 hours ago

So much green citrus! Lychee, ripe lime rind, lemon, sea air and tarragon, with a little hint of cantaloupe on the nose, with a light, crystalline body and color, with a very pale yellow green color, and a sharp acidic palate, with prominent green/yellow citrus, with notes of lemon, limestone, great acidity and a strong, zingy, fresh finish that goes on forever! Really special and perfect for sashimi. — 19 days ago

Great pairing for tinned fish and roasted pork belly cured with Chinese 5 spice! For the alcohol as high as it is, it really has some amazing acidity and it’s light on its feet, with a tart nose of kiwi, Meyer lemon and maybe mango? Palate is citrus driven and lithe, with lemon pith, almost merengue, with that slight sweetness, but nice minerality and mouthfeel. — a month ago

Strong fruit forward nose of lemon, orange and strawberry, with hints of fresh celery and salt air. Color is a peach or blush, the medium palate is rich fruit, a little baking yeast silkiness, with a long, candied fruit finish. The perfect way to cheers bringing my new daughter into the world! — 6 days ago

9.4

Dark red with amber hints to the edges, this wine at first is very closed, clearly very young and could use 5-10 more years, which is surprising for this varietal. Nose is very fruity, almost like a candied rasberry preserve, Or strawberry rhubarb, with hints of green stalk or fennel, and maybe some prickly pear fruit! Medium bodied but silky, with nice acidity, a younger tingle and slight tannin, but not mouth coating. Palate is at first dark fruits, underripe plum, blackberry, and then it blooms into a light band-aid flavor, rose, silky red fruits, flavors almost like licorice but not so earthy, and a looong finish that is almost mentholy with blackberry and dry minerals at the end. — a month ago

9.1

Suuuper dark color, with reds and purple hues perfectly meshed and looooong slow legs despite the alleged 13.9 ABV. Nose of ripe dark plum, blueberry, mossy wet wood, strawberries, peppery notes and chocolate. Still got a sharp bite being so young, with notes of iron, plum, dark cherry, dark chocolate and red meat on the palate. Tasty, but not blown away. Paired with taco steak, spicy chicken and taco bowls it was really tasty. — 14 days ago

9.1

Rustic nose, with mushrooms, iron, red meat, slightly crunchy read fruit, rose florals and maybe even a hint of crisp red apple. Medium body, and a dark, deep ruby or rose color. Palate is zingy with hints of blood orange, high quality balsamic, honestly bubble gum or some sort of candied flavor, piñon wood, with dark chocolate (like cacao) and a little tar and burnt fennel at the finish. Whew, this is rich and fun, but not so high ABV or weight that it’s overwhelming. — 20 days ago

Took a long time to open up, but when it did I got notes of crushed dark berries, slate, maybe some wet forest floor leaves, black cherry and a hint of charcoal. Full bodied and silky, with some mouth drying tannins and a slightly rocky palate, with crushed blackberry, iron, compote, smoky ash, and some green like notes, like splintered dry young saplings. — a month ago
