Pale ruby in color; cherries, dried herbs, hibiscus, and a little graphite on the nose; medium plus acidity medium tannins; tastes like raspberries, strawberry jam, and wet slate with a long finish. It tastes like a Pinot Noir or a Garnacha, but it doesn't contain either of those grapes. Nellie, Esmi, and I like this wine. — 6 months ago

Let’s you know on pnp it needs a few minutes! Within 30 minutes it softened nicely revealing earth, dark fruits and surprising complexity for a $20 bottle.

Steak, Frites & Claret. I am in heaven this New Year’s Eve. While 03 was a very warm & ripe vintage; which will drink well younger, this still needs 5-8 years. The nose still shows a fair amount of earth & some funk even after an hour & half in the the decanter. Sour dark cherries, ripe blackberries, black plum, roasted strawberries, raspberries haunt the background, light vanilla & cinnamon, light, soft, spice, black cherry cola/licorice, light volcanic minerals, dry stones, rich turned earth, black tea, anise, dark fresh florals with a hint of violets. The body is medium, lush and beautiful. Tannins have baby teeth. Sour & sweet dark cherries, ripe blackberries, black plum, roasted strawberries, blueberries, raspberries haunt the background, light vanilla & cinnamon, light, soft, spice, black cherry cola/licorice, light volcanic minerals, dry stones, rich turned dark earth, dry crushed rock, hints of graphite, cigar tobacco, used leather, black tea, anise, dark fresh florals with a hint of violets. The acidity is round and near perfect. The length, structure, tension and balance are all in good company. The finish is long & beautiful with nice balance, but just a shade more earthiness on the long set. Here a little trivia for your next game of “Wine Trivial Pursuit.” What was the first wine brought into space? In 1985, the 75 Lynch Bages was brought into space by a Frenchmen. Of course, right? I wonder if that drove up the bottle price? I think Lynch Bages is still currently closed for visits as it’s under renovation. They are making serious improvements to their facilities. Should you ever visit, make your appointment either side of lunch and eat at their Bistro...Cafe Lavinal. It’s very good, close and owned by Lynch Bages. Library vintages of Lynch Bages are available by the glass. It’s a very short walk from the Chateau. They also have great accommodations in walking distance, the Cordeillan Bages. The hotel is very nice and has a two star Michelin Restaurant. One of our favorite meals ever! Wish you all peace, success and many nice bottles in 2018!!! Happy New Year! 🎊🎈🎆 🍾🥂 🎉 — 7 years ago

The best one for my palate.

Some trivia- a braggot is a beer and mead hybrid.

Flavour notes: lush, earthy, with mild sweetness of honey.🍯

Took this old friend to trivia night and came home a winner. Hands down one of my favorite Pinot Noir sites in the Ceritas program. This wine is so true in its smells and tastes of place. — 6 years ago

Inspired to open this bottle after hearing from owner/winemaker, Theodora, during this week’s Batonnage panel on feminism and color in the wine industry. Needless to say. I’m very glad I did. The grape is called Symphony (MuscatxGrenache Gris), so I’ll try to refrain from music puns. Tropical fruit and floral aromatics. Acid, mineral and barely ripe stone fruit. I may have just found my wine of the summer. Paired with indian take out and Friday night zoom trivia. Harmonious! — 5 years ago

Trivia time, not that most of you don’t already know this, but this is the vintage they didn’t make the SS and its by far IMHO the best Caymus Napa ever. Found this today at a little deli/liquor store here in Palm Springs. Surprise surprise still drinking beautifully. — 7 years ago
