Perfumed dark fruit. Earthy. Really very good. And unusual for a Finger Lakes cab franc. I usually find them to be musty. This is much more like a Bolgheri or Bordeaux cab franc. I think this is the best Finger Lakes Cab Franc I’ve ever tasted. — 4 days ago
Very lemony. Very gentle use of oak, almost no vanilla. Okay finish. Mellow. — 4 days ago
Very rich, floral, crisp, decent minerality and a long finish. Best Riesling I’ve found up here this week. — 4 days ago
Very classic. Oak comes through a bit, but not overwhelming. Not vanilla but I think a hint of the barrel char. Very mellow tree fruit, hints of spice. Really good complexity — 4 days ago
Quite nice. Bright, floral, the individual grapes come through in the blend. Red fruit, earth. You can taste the finger lake cab franc. — 4 days ago
Deeper red than the regular Pinot here. Rounder. Not particularly aromatic. Nice tannins. Good rich black fruit. The higher alcohol makes this much oilier, heavier and sweeter than the regular pinot noir here even though they have the same reserve sugar. — 4 days ago
Rich yellow. Classic petrol nose of a good Riesling. Good chalky pithy base. A bit too honey smooth. — 4 days ago
An almost nutty bouquet. Tangy, minerality, good density. Interesting fruit that I can’t place. Underripe peach? Light apricot? Faint mint in the finish. — 4 days ago
Very lightly coloured. Slightly perfumed. Bright flavored. New oak comes through with a mild vanilla and baking spices. Light integrated tannins — 4 days ago

Faint sour cherry nose. Nice color. Hints of spice. Very nicely integrated fine tannins providing good structure. There is a lot of poor Pinot Noir in the Finger Lakes. This is not one of them. — 4 days ago
