Strong but elegant and smooth. Intense cherry flavor but like Gevrey-Chambertin. Too astringent in the finish when first opened but that problem goes away after an hour of air. Great value under $30. — 2 days ago

Washed out Pinot Noir. Okay but not great. Some elegant cherry flavor remaining but not much going on. Likely a younger vintage would be better. — 21 days ago

This wine is the oaky, buttery, vanilla California style of Chardonnay without much fruit. I really enjoyed it with beef and lamb. An excellent example of this style for those who like that style of Chardonnay and an excellent choice to pair a white wine with meat for a friend who cannot drink red wine. Nice $25 value. — 21 days ago

Great Rosé but not as good as other vintages. Light flavor and lots of vanilla, but strawberry flavor is thin. Good value at $65. — 24 days ago
