2016 Folk Machine Pinot Noir Batten Down The Hatches The Storm Is Coming Vecino VineyardPotter Valley more |
12/28/2023 - amflinn wrote: 89 pointsThis wine has held up quite well with proper cellaring. Fruit still smells and tastes very fresh. Mostly translucent with a bit of cloudiness. Slightly musty, which blows off with time. Cherry and cranberry and very light bodied. Some sediment at the bottom of the bottle. Probably no benefit from further cellaring. 12.2% ABV. |

10/18/2023 - Ben Christiansen wrote: NRReally high toned cranberry to it, to the point of almost being a little dill pickle. Really tangy on the palate. This is pretty darn sour to me. A little too much so. Second swirl brings it up a bit more. |

9/6/2023 - jkclifton@gmail.com wrote: 87 pointsLight bodied, a little cloudy and natty/barnyard floory, maybe a very slight sprtiz? Very slightly yeasty character, especially by day 3. Identifiable as new world, but not overly rich. An enjoyable wine, both with food and on its own. Don't think it's worth $30, though. Would rebuy if it were $22 or less. |

7/19/2023 - Ben Christiansen wrote: NRThe last was the Valdigue. A little fresher and easier to interpret on the nose. Grenache based instead of carignane. 60% Grenache, then 20/20. And with some hard edges. Kenny wants it to be a little rustic and it is. |

Changed skate boarding because everyone could film. 100% Valdigue, vines are 100+ years old, 500 liter puncheons, 1 new, so a touch of new oak. Still rather darn super punchy with acidity. Really high acid. Tart and tangy and wAY HARD. |

3/12/2023 - lake.vino Likes this wine: 90 pointsPale pink. Nose a bit floral, and strawberries and cream. Palate has great acid and mineral, especially for California. Still, has ripeness of the region showing in big fruit presence. It's good, it's subtle - but not sure it's $23 good compared to less pricey old world options. |
