    July 2, 2023 - Good but not great. Wanted to like this as I love Hundred Acre wines in general. Think there are better wines in this price range.

    April 18, 2022 - Just not my type
    Pop n pour, green vegi, thing , no heat , but cherry. Air it out for 2-3 hours
    Still didn’t help. Won’t buy it in future

    February 20, 2020 - Not as nice as I was hoping and certainly embarrassed by a 2016 Carter Weitz Vineyard. Red cherry and red raspberry fruit dominate. Not much complexity in this bottle. Better right out of the bottle as it got sweeter and simpler over 4 hours. Some acidity that helped the finish but tannins were missing. Decent body and fragrant fruit driven nose.

    January 31, 2020 - 2 hour decant allowed this Mature dark red to open. Most Excellent With filet and lobster tail

  • Bobbusch Likes this wine: 91 points

    January 27, 2019 - The wine showed well with nice dark fruit tones. The wine did show signs of “ falling apart” after several hours.
    I have one left so will consume this year.
