Finger Lakes Chardonnay 2018

9.3

Chablis style with crisp acidity. Could easily pass for a Pinot Grigio. This is bright and fresh with pear and green apple flavors and some minerality on the nose. This is fantastic! — 5 years ago

This is the Barnstormer N6679P Riesling. This is a relatively earthy Kabinett style Riesling. Nose has funk, apple, bitter pith notes. Palate has crisp ripe apple, soft texture. — a year ago

Sawmill Creek Vineyard Blaufränkisch Rosé 2019

9.1

Unique rosé...floral on the nose. I worry there might be some sweetness but the dry bitter super cranberry in the mouth and finish brings it home. I love this winery... — 5 years ago

Gorgeously supple and open fruit. Not a barnstormer of a vintage but all is very open knit and lush without excessive bite from alcohol. Very good. — 5 years ago

I love the reined-in balance of the 13 Brunellos I’ve had.

Poker Face Syrah 2004

Ron R

Syrah on another logical level. A pure barnstormer. Never tasted a Syrah like this before! Very atypical for the varietal. Perfectly weighted, and so compact. Sandalwood interplay’s with dark chocolate, blueberries and cinnamon.

Sawmill Creek Vineyard Cabernet Franc 2018

Stewart Ben

9.1

Really nice cab franc. Light in color but bold medium plus tannic finish. Has some fruit there black cherry and some leather. This could use a couple more years in bottle to mellow the tannins and let the flavor come through but I’m a sucker for bitter and bitey wines so enjoying it as is now. — 5 years ago
