Simply having a wonderful Christmas time back at home with a glass of one of our very favorite N/V Champagnes. Ahhh!
Out of the deluge of rain with the house warm, Christmas lights and my custom Christmas mix (5 hour mix of old & new) on.
Happy Holiday Season all! Cheers! 🍾🥂 🌲 🎅 🎁 ❄️ ⛄️

Stunning cab sav fruit. Cherry, glycerine, and cedar nose explodes on the palate with a deluge of blackberries, toasted oak and cedar, vanilla, and strawberry shortcake. Finished with a smokey burnt ember note. Structured and complex, this will continue to evolve for many years. While approachable now because the tannins while formidable are smooth and integrated, I imagine this will get better in the bottle as secondary flavors reveal themselves. — 9 years ago
Silky smooth. Excellent! — 4 years ago
Full flattop of foam dissipates drastically leaving a single frozen flash of anime splash. Nice face full of orange orchard and spicy lemon and nutritional yeast with faint cut potato and mild yellow pepper. Zingy citrus grip blossoms into lemons dried and fresh-cut with tangerines, clementines and orchard blend. Mineral texture suggestive of crystalline metal. This wonderful farm girl has charm and poise. Delightfully bright and shimmering; with depth and substance. So like sudden, hard sunshine after a forest deluge. Immaculate. — 6 years ago
Not agreeing with the deluge of 9+ comments, especially in regards to the $50 price. The alcohol is overbearing (14.6% for a Pinot??) and assaults your palate and even more so the nose. Acidity too high for my liking. It’s good, yes. Great , no — 5 years ago
Wonderful Pinot Noir, light berries and oak . Smooth and delightful! — 8 years ago
A deluge of brambles and garrigue. Utterly spellbinding. 100% Grenache from century vines in La Gardiole. Monumental effort. — 9 years ago
