Intense aromatics of Caramel, vanilla, coconut and banana (almost like the sugarcane is picking up other plants in the vicinity!). Very very mellow on the palate and dangerously drinkable. A bottle of this between friends could disappear very quickly. Under no circumstances put anything but a block of ice or a little water with the rum. Coca Cola is a hanging offence with a rum as smooth and flavoursome as this. Purchased this in Europe in 2018 and now trying to track down a bottle in Australia. — 5 years ago

One of of my favorite vineyards in CA and a gem in Turley’s portfolio. Spanning 1890s to 1900s plantation of some very unique varietals, this always has a signature to it that I don’t always find in field blends. Rich in body while always maintaining beautiful texture and liveliness. Aromatics are always unique and compelling in their own right. I used to think this would be best at 10-15 year mark but the more I try it I think this site drinks its best at the 3-5 year mark from vintage. — 4 years ago

I love a good Blackberry wine and this one does not disappoint!! A full-bodied, black fruit flavors that cleanses the palate with a strong blackberry forward taste and subtle notes of raspberries too on the tip of the tongue with sweetness. This would be fabulous paired with some chocolate or even cheeses. — 9 months ago
