Smooth, solid & red fruit forward Pinot that slaps! Lingers in just the right way afterwards. Nice on the nose, smooth on the pallete. And a great hook on the label 😅 — 25 days ago

The kind of wine you’d want to serve or gift to leave an impression. A solid, smooth & very well balanced Italian red. Smooth on the nose - smoother on the palette. Mature red fruit with a soft touch from start to finish. Incredible glass with a red sauce meal but this can also stand alone. Just wow — a month ago

Crisp on the nose, sharp start with some mature red fruit that is nicely balanced with a satisfying clean finish. An excellent table red to pair with a good red sauce dish, or charcuterie plate. Good glass at a great price! — a month ago

A fantastic California Cab Sav that comes at this variety with a nice smooth ramp up to the boldness that is this grape from this region. Might be the first Cali cab Sav I’ve had that drinks like a smooth Italian, but with the bold fruitiness of California. Superb! — 24 days ago

SO incredibly smooth - delightful, delicate & delicious. Smooth from start to finish, with a nice tobacco/earth quality finish of a big new world Argentinian but much more fruit forward and dry landing note. Buy more then 1 bottle! — a month ago
