One of my favorite Syrahs. Decanting is a MUST with this wine (or any other Martian wine) in order to appreciate the beauty of the wine. — 9 years ago

Chardonnay from grapes grown in the Antelope Valley in the Mojave desert. Done in the "Sur lie" style. Notes of pepper, grass and citrus. Excellent Chardonnay for the money. — 9 years ago

Expected better. Noted nail polish in the bouquet, not a good sign. Possible bad bottle (it happens). — 9 years ago

Very unusual Pinot Noir, grapes were grown in the Antelope Valley of the Mojave desert. A warm climate Pinot. Very dry, definitely not what you would expect from a cooler climate Pinot. — 9 years ago
