Big bodied and a lot of fruit. Some cocoa as well. Better than the Pinot. — 2 months ago

@Delectable Wine this is the Grande Reserve, Hainfelder Letten.

Interesting PN. A suggestion of the old style of spatburgunder at first, but the oak is not overdone (drank alongside a 2019 Stodden JS for comparison). On the nose: sour cherry, sandalwood, soft coconut, more earthy notes. On the palate: lovely acidity, black cherry, slate. Perhaps a touch short, but soft, finely grained tannin on the spicy finish. I liked the JS more up front, but this is showing really well with about 8 hrs of air. Lovely now! — a year ago

I really don’t like — or maybe really think I don’t like — sweet wines. But…THIS dessert wine makes me doubt everything I thought I disliked (though it has a dryness at the cherry-sweet center) — 3 years ago

Thoroughly enjoyed this bottle which reminded me of a more concentrated Oregon pinot. Focused on cherry and strawberries, and heavily earth bound. Dry and quenching, it kept me coming back even though each sip had a lasting finish. — 7 months ago

Fresh, creamy, flowery ... everything is fitting so well together. Immensly satisfying balance for a very fair price! — 2 years ago

Bright, concentrated hazy lemon yellow with flecks of marigold.

Very fragrant, with aromas of elderflower, dried apricot, unripe yellow peach, lychee, honeysuckle, red apple skin, sage, preserved lemon, candied ginger, white grapefruit, and almond skin, which carry through to the mouthwatering palate.

A complex intersection of floral, stone fruit, saline, and savory notes, this is a show-stopping wine and an incredible value at $30 retail. It’s dry and lightly tannic, with tangy acidity and a long and evolving finish.

I had this on its own and it was delightful. I’m certain it would be a fantastic pairing with a whole bunch of different dishes and cuisines, but I kind of feel like it deserves to be savored alone as the star of the show. — 2 years ago

Dry farm wines certified. My first bottle from DFW and it did not disappoint. Very clean a fruit forward with a nice effervescence — 10 months ago

Tastes like a sour beer, in the best of ways. Lots of cherry and raspberries. — a year ago

Excellent new world pinot noir full of fruit and wood with a bit of the soil you can taste. Bold but not too tanic. Paired well with Manchego cheese — 2 years ago

A new experience all together! Beautiful dry rose that’s light on the palate yet manages to have some crunchy red berry flavors. Dry enough to not clash with our sushi bento. Paired just fine. — 4 years ago
