adamlevin's Review:

Bright cherry red in glass. Lots of cranberry and wild herbs on nose. Very forward. Tasted slightly bubbly, but that may have been the acid. On the palate, it reminded me of a simple, fruity pinot with lots of delicious acidity. Serve slightly chilled. Perfect for a summer night after a hot day.

adamlevin's Review:

More like a white wine than rose. Very pale color. Noticeably smoky on the nose with whiffs of herb garden and slate. Bone dry but balanced with a very subtle red fruit on palate. Get's points for being unique.

adamlevin's Review:

Particularly complex nose for a wine in this price range. There's a ton of tropical fruit, pear, apple, banana, floral, and honey notes going on. It's really quite interesting to stick your nose in. In the mouth the wine is quite viscous and coats your mouth, but its not thick. There's a touch of sweetness to go with the good acidity and a lot of fruit tones. A bit too much ripe banana for me. Finish is a bit acidic.

adamlevin's Review:

Very translucent light reddish-purple color with almost peachy orange edges. Very pretty. Some heat on the nose at first. Smells like warm, dusty, brambly outdoors with a campfire burning in the distance. In the mouth, very soft and plush. A luxurious texture that goes down silky smooth. Sour cherry finish.

adamlevin's Review:

Nose is a bit hot. Nice dried cherry aroma. Cherry immediately attacks your mouth, but this is a smooth wine. Chalky tannin and a very short finish.

adamlevin's Review:

Stewed fruit, mint, chocolate, and coffee on nose. Seems youthful. Bright sweet fruit with a good amount of acid. Really well balanced. I would guess this is much younger.

adamlevin's Review:

Extracted and over the top, but in a very interesting way. I would be very interested to see what this is like in 10 years.

adamlevin's Review:

Wood, chocolate, and menthol on nose. Medicinal, acidic, and gamey in mouth. Good long tannins.

adamlevin's Review:

Definitely a unique wine. I was a bit distracted, so didn't give this wine the attention it deserved.

adamlevin's Review:

Nose is smokey, meaty, and ripe. Left me wanting more.
