12/10/2012 - psusfca Likes this wine: 91 pointsI think this is drinking very well. Popped and poured. Tannins have softened. It was more elegant than other Christopher Creek Petites that I have had. I think this is drinking very well right now. I have one more in the cellar and I won't let iot linger too long

The wine streaks in the glass almost seem to contain extremely fine particles but the decanter did not have sediment. This is a good value wine but I don't recommend storing too long. It drinks well now and I suspect that they are discounting this wine because the corks are not holding up. I peeled of the top foil of another bottle, shined a bright light on the cork and I could see the wine stain on part of the cork. I will drink this one soon...

This bottle was much simpler and rather a one-note wine, with red and dark fruit tinged with earth and leather in a polished, medium weight package but not a whole lot of complexity or depth here.

I think it was served a little to cold. By the 2nd glass it released a bit more fruit, but I expected more. Not very acidic either. The finish was longer given first impressions. Saved 1/2 the bottle for the next evening.
