Laser. This is so insanely good. Crazy juxtaposition of super ripe aromatics and cutting acid. Just a shade off of bone dry. Balanced on the edge of a razor. — 8 years ago

This was the funkiest dirtiest nastiest bottle of wine I have ever opened. Either this bottle was off or they should sell their vineyards to build condos. — 8 years ago

Could be my favorite Beauj. That said you have to be prepared to open two cause one will probably be off. That said $120 a bottle puts you into some pretty good stuff so this is probably more of an education drink than a pleasure drink. — 7 years ago

Good not great. Insanely reductive. Smelled like fresh garbage juice at first. Came around after about 4 hours in the decanter. Fresh and juicy. Probably just about right for the price. — 8 years ago

Great, for Texas. Kind of funky, something weird about the oak. — 7 years ago

Love me some good old burg. Nothing fancy, just solid village wine. Bottle after bottle Don’s wines keep delivering. I think that I paid $29 for this. — 8 years ago

Wasn’t in love the first day. Seemed out of balance. Left it alone over night and it really came together. Probably not worth the cost but interesting to taste. — 8 years ago
