Smells like blackberry, dried cranberry (that one courtesy of my wife), and milk chocolate. Clearly good quality. Some slight baking spice. And dill? Tastes good! Less blackberry than the nose, a little more cherry and drier than expected. Still some slight dill. Silky. Like it! Killer deal for the $10 I paid (close out) - would be fine at $20. — 3 years ago
A new village level wine from Tobias Feiden. It is incredible. Nose is just next level. All terroir. Gorgeous sappy pine, tree bark, slate, some sappy sour cherries. Intoxicating. Color shows how aromatic this is. Gorgeous spice and dusty earth tones. Smells like a fantasy video game forest scene. A 9.3 on the nose. Easy. Palate is stunning. Fresh and transparent with gorgeous sappy sour and mid season cherry fruit, glorious spice and such purity. Clean as a whistle while having a serious transparency. Juicy. A hint of citrus due to brightness and just awesome texture. So balanced and so pure you can tell this is an expert winemaker. The drinkability factor of this wine is off the charts. What every “village” wine level should be in Germany. It’s so well made has just the right amount of fruit, aroma and is oozing with character. Truly a great wine. — 5 years ago

Unlike many California Chardonnay, this one has a bit more character and nuance. It is not a butter/oak bomb like so many. It was well balanced and paired nicely with a variety of dishes. — 4 years ago

Great gently masculine pinot with some tannins that will smooth out nicely is a few years. Bursting with flavor! — a year ago
