Second set our horizontal tasting of the vineyards of this winery. This low score might be reflection. The fact that this bottle has passed its prime. The first night it was wonderful with damp forest floor and earthy notes and chewy woody textures. By the second night, it pretty much faded and was just not all there. Low city, but good enough structure that everything carried well, just felt like it didn’t last over two days. Not a knock against it because the first night it was wonderful, and delicate, but I think I just waited too long.  — 12 days ago

It went with tuna it went with butternut squash soup with a hazelnut foam, it went with rabbit and duck. Delicious and light, but still engaging and lovely with all sorts of flavors of flowers and roses and earthy spices and everything in between. Very versatile wine.  — 18 days ago

Punches above its weight. Savory and chewy, enough tenants to give it structure, definite, like dust and leather and smoked meat and ripe purple fruit. Really enjoyed it, going back to buy more.  — 5 days ago

Wow, this took a while to open up. Definitely started off with almost a sour note to it, and I was a little worried. The bottle was past its prime. However, after a good 30 minutes of allowing it to breathe, he really got some good herbal and forest floor notes among cool fruit with a nice structure that wasn’t flabby or overly processed. Got basically a horizontal tasting of this and the other sub regions of this producer and I’m excited to see what the other ones bring.  — 14 days ago

Start out incredibly rich and concentrated, and with tongue coating tans, but after a couple of hours really opened up to show some delicate fruit and savory flavors. The nose also started out incredibly intense and a little jammy, but cleared with time to become something much more delicate and lovely with flowers and cold fruits and Deliciousness.  — a month ago

Another in the horizontal tasting, this one was much more fruity and juicy and ripe red, fruit, raspberries, sand, apples, definitely the chew your and more toothsome fruits, but still an easy drinking wine.  — 5 days ago

Bright, medium acid, ate with spicy spicy butter chicken. Garlic naan. Went very well, enough acid to clear heavy flavors and brightness to go along with it all. Crisp, slightly sweet, no apples but underripe white peach flavors. Very interesting Italian Riesling. — 15 days ago

Savory and very satisfying. Chewy tannins and long smoked meat, meaty mushroom, and ripe red fruit with just enough sweet to offset any tannin tongue but nothing cloying. Nose was weak but flavors intense and lovely. — a month ago
