1/10/2021 - ed43bauhaus Likes this wine: 92 pointsActually 91-93. Extremely pleasant, easy to drink wine with great freshness and perfect acidity. The Cab really comes through on the nose. Nothing heavy on the palate, with a hint of cassis, strawberry and cranberry combined with easy going savory elements. Recommended. |

4/6/2020 - ed43bauhaus wrote: 88 pointsMy thoughts on this wine have changed. Previous vintages seemed “interesting” with unusual flavor profiles. This bottles comes off as oak sweet, blandly juicy and lacking much structure. It’s still “interesting”, but not in a good way. Maybe a couple more years in the bottle? |

4/2/2020 - ed43bauhaus Likes this wine: 92 pointsOnly a month since taking delivery on this bottle, but exceptional. Distinct Syrah fruit, but not overbearing. Nice mild funk and a plethora of savory flavors. Just enough structure. Wish we had a case. |

9/25/2017 - ed43bauhaus Likes this wine: 88 pointsCrowd pleaser with low alcohol. (13.6%) Actually a Cab and Merlot blend. Much too juicy for our tastes, with very mild acidity and tannins. Casual red drinkers should love it. Hi-Lo Liquor, Culver City. |

4/12/2017 - ed43bauhaus Does not like this wine: 79 pointsThis bottle was a K & L selection. I've never met a Cab Franc from the Loire that I didn't find some pleasure in, but this was an exception. It tasted a lot like wood......not sweet vanilla or other typical oak flavors: more like a two by four from Home Depot. All sorts of other potentially interesting savory flavors, but those don't save it. Drank only half the bottle. Would be interested in other opinions on this wine. |

3/9/2017 - ed43bauhaus Likes this wine: 90 pointsDiscovered this wine at a small blind tasting at Honor Wine and Spirits in Beverly Hills. Surprising. Nicely tannic and textured. Plum and current fruit not overwhelming. Some mineral qualities, and a pleasant hint of wood. Sophisticated for about $25. |

2/25/2017 - ed43bauhaus Likes this wine: 87 pointsInteresting. The nose is great, floral and juicy. The palate starts with a burst of typical Syrah flavors, but the finish fades almost immediately. Very light bodied, and certainly pleasant, but was hoping for more. 13.6%. Purchased from Full Pull. |
