Not sure why I can’t find my prior rating. This one has sweet cut wood on the nose, a nice thick and maple syrup like mouthfeel and some power on the finish. It’s not low proof but also almost all on the tongue and nothing on the sides of the mouth. Unlike the Rua the flavor is typical bourbon that makes this an easy one to put down but given I skipped lunch it will not be a repeat of the 4 martini Father’s Day with this. — 4 years ago
Bought @ Eatley. good return to drinking wine worth its grapes. Listened to "damn time" discussing wedding shower, career, FOCCUS. Idyllic summer night Chicago. Aldi steaks...maybe a touch over done on Coleman camp grill. — 7 years ago

An excellent wine! Rich cherry jamminess, with just some subtle hints of the bourbon barrel rounding it out. Super smooth. $14.99 from the Trader Joe's on Coleman in San Jose. — 7 years ago
Beautifully balanced Pinot Noir! Delicious and smooth. — 6 years ago
Not a Pinot Noir for the newbie. More Burgundy, less California with a bouquet of tarragon, cedar, mint, redwood, black cherries, blood orange peel, green olive, sea spray, and smoked game meats. Intense, complex and a real joy for a lover of earthy, terroir-driven Pinots with a character. — 7 years ago
