solomania9's Review:

Super oaky toasty bready nose. Bakery mouthfeel with lots of soft bruised fruit but a decent amount of acidity to boot. Grainy creamy finish. A fun chard.

solomania9's Review:

Sweet syrupy nose - slightly gamey. Rich and full-bodied with lots of acidity. Black cherries and a hint of eucalyptus dominate. Long acidic finish and a fair amount of complexity. Very enjoyable, but the nose promised more than it delivered.

solomania9's Review:

Solid bright grainy nose. Light in the mouth with an present but understated underlying acidity. Departs slowly and complexly with tea flavors and tarry cherries.

solomania9's Review:

A little gamey on the nose. Big soft pinot fruit with lots of complexity and and relaxed finish.

solomania9's Review:

Excellent balance on the palate with a zesty pear-infused buttery honied tone giving way to a beady milky finish. Practically screams to be paired with food.

solomania9's Review:

Sweet and grainy nose. Grand and dark in the mouth with dark chocolate and woody notes backed by a nicely structured acidity that rounds everything out.

solomania9's Review:

Rich bright eucalyptus on the nose. Bulbous core of ripe cherries, cedar, and spice on the palate with gigantic luscious tannins and a long prickly finish.

solomania9's Review:

Sumptuous nose of menthol and eucalyptus which carries over into the mouth with grand tannic cherries and an encore of the medicinal eucalyptus on the finish. Damn sophisticated.

solomania9's Review:

Big nose of spicy complex berries. One of the leanest mouthfeels I can recall - but in the good way. Huge black cherries and a delicate elegant finish.

solomania9's Review:

There's a very soft apricot party in my mouth and you're invited. Syrupy sweet with a little chalkiness on the palate. Nice gently prickly finish. Very enjoyable.
