12/6/2023 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 88 pointsNice bottle. Not sure where it came from, maybe Costco. After first taste, I decided to let it breathe a couple hours. It was too tight. Well, I fell asleep. The next morning I closed the bottle. Later, I poured some in my Casemates wine glass. Very nice fruit, little alcohol. I didn't take notes which I regret! If I get time, I'll try to find out where the bottle came from! |

2/16/2023 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 90 pointsOM, this wine has aged beautifully! Nice red color, medium body, great fruit, very little alcohol and a smooth finish! I wasn't expecting much from this NV wine, but it blew me away! I have 4 btls left! I was very careful with the cork because some of Peter' corks have been crumbling. The cork came out whole and the wine stain was up the side about 3/16". Sorry, I didn't write down detailed taste notes because I had to enjoy it! Drank over 3 days and the wine was just as good as the first day! |

8/20/2022 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 88 pointsHad over 3 days. 1st day it seemed tight even after letting the bottle sit open for an hour. Much better the 2nd day. The fruit showed up and the wine seemed more integrated. Enjoyed, but didn't take detailed notes. |

10/27/2021 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 86 pointsJust an ok bottle of wine! To me, it was a little disjointed! I did not take notes since it was consumed over 4 days. Best day was the 2nd day! Could have been that we opened this bottle along with the Vin Noceto Sangiovese that was better! |

3/20/2021 - boatman72 wrote: 86 pointsNot my style for a Pinot Noir. I tasted a lot of neutral wood and leather. The only fruit I tasted was on the 2nd day and it was plums/prunes! Possibly more fruit on the 3rd day, but I was focused on basketball! The fruit that I expect in a Pinot Noir is either a strawberry and/or cherry fruit undertone! |

2/24/2021 - boatman72 wrote: 85 pointsMedium body wine consumed over 4 days. I did not take detailed notes on the taste profile. First two days the best. Day 4, I got bell pepper taste! I hate Bell Pepper taste in wine! Also, thought that it was weak for being a blend!! |

12/29/2020 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 91 pointsDrank over three days. This was a great bottle of wine! Nice red color. On the palate, initially tasted the alcohol, but that quickly faded. Nice strawberry - cherry red fruit, a little cinnamon and spice. This wine was very balanced and integrated. I bought this wine on MorningSave for about $24.50/btl. When it came on Casemates for $13.33/btl I jumped on a case. |

12/29/2020 - boatman72 Likes this wine: 89 pointsThis wine is still drinking well. Nice red color with red cherry fruit, a hint of spice, vanilla, and oak. Drank over two days and it might have been a little better on day two. I will note that the cork was dry and I couldn't retrieve the cork in one piece! |

11/1/2020 - boatman72 Does not like this wine: NRI am wondering if this vintage is over the hill. I got a strong petrol taste on day one and it continued into day two and three...almost like the Riesling fighting with the Gewurztraminer!! I poured half a bottle down the drain! |

8/25/2020 - boatman72 wrote: 90 pointsWe loved the wine! We didn't take specific notes. Wives thought it was a sweet wine. Guys loved the smooth mouthful, apple, and minerality! 1st time we had a Sauvignon Blanc that was malolactic fermented. Sugar content was reported as 0.01%. I would think the smoothness and sweetness came from the malolactic fermentation! |
