Pale yellow in the glass with intense floral and ripe melon aromas. Flavors are quite different with citrus rind and dusty minerality predominating and just hints of white flowers. Nice body. Adequate acidity. Delicious dry Moscato Bianco. — 9 years ago
Medium ruby in the glass with subtle red fruit aromas. Tart red fruit flavors with herbal hints including dried hay. Tannins are drying and the finish is fairly long and juicy. Light to medium body. Easy to drink on its own. — 9 years ago
2010 #LacosteBorie #Pauillac #Bordeaux is showing nicely. A pop of cedar, dark fruit, tobacco, leather, firm tannins. Still young. Won't break the bank. #wine — 9 years ago

Light yellow with tiny bubbles. Delicate toast and white flower aromas are followed by apple, mineral and toasted almond flavors. Nice acidity with a lingering, clean finish. Toasted oat aromas linger in the empty glass. Very complex. Enjoy this sparkler with food. Disgorged 2014. — 9 years ago
Dark ruby in the glass with toasty, caramel and dark fruit aromas. Tart raspberry and blackberry flavors with leather and black tea. Tannins are drying and grippy. Juicy acidity. Enjoy this wine with a lamb burger. — 9 years ago
Dense ruby color with dark fruit and earthy aromas. Complex dark fruit flavors, dusty earth with a meaty, smoky undercurrent and a medium body. Substantial tannins linger with hints of tobacco in the long finish. This wine was spectacular with lamb. It is our last bottle. Hope the retailer will re-stock. — 9 years ago
Inky dark in the glass with a luscious, ripe, dark fruit nose. Ripe dark fruit and blackberry flavors, sweet vanilla, smoke and tobacco flavors are supported by firm tannins. The finish is long and a bit hot. A very ripe style, too ripe to please me, but I see its appeal. Food is essential. — 9 years ago
Transparent ruby in the glass with red fruit, violets and earthy aromas. Tart red fruit flavored, earth, sweet tea and drying tannins. Nice acidity. Decant and give this wine time in the glass. You will be rewarded. Enjoy with salmon, roasted chicken, pork or veal. — 9 years ago

Words escape me. Weightless. Ethereal. So flavorful. Juicy blackberries, earthy berry brambles, smooth tannins. Best Pinot I've tasted this year. — 8 years ago
