Super charming NV cinsault with all that purply fruit and plumminess. Glou glou for sure. Not complex but surely doesn’t need to be. You’ll come back soon for another sip. — a month ago
Bit of mint. Super balanced. Ripe tannins and present acidity. This is one of the best Crozes I’ve had. It lacks that dirt of the usual crozes. Wonderful. — 2 months ago
Wow. This is really good. Rich and powerful. Lemon and other citrus. Long finish. Exquisite. — 11 days ago
Tart cherry is right. The earthiness here is a strong suit. Good balance of acidity and tannins. This is pretty great wine. Pairs great with food. Only 13° which is nice. 2021 — a month ago
2016. Balances fruit tannins and acidity. Soft tannins because of the age. Ripe. — a month ago
Excellently done — 2 months ago
Quite perky 2022. Not modern style, much more acidity than expected. Rich robust dark fruit. Tight tannins. Really nice. — a month ago
Nice balance of acidity and fruit for a 16 year old wine. 2010. In fact it’s pretty fantastic. A bit of stewed apricots d hints of green apple. The tertiary elements are charming as heck. Go team! — a month ago
2023. Fairly robust Pinot. Classic Pinot notes with some real grip. Tasty but not particularly complex. Drinkable. — a month ago

Same wine I tasted 2.5 years ago. Yea, old me. It did need some time and now it’s singing. Damn. I may be convinced. Chocolate, some caramel flavors and oak presence in a good way. Okay. I’m convinced. 2018 — 5 days ago
