Community Tasting Notes (18) Avg Score: 88.9 points

  • As always a treat to drink a wine from Puffeney 🍷🍷🍷
    The color is pale orange and slightly hazy.
    Violet, wild strawberries, earthy tones (forrest floor) in a complex nose.
    High acidity, cranberries, ripe strawberries, a touch of juniper wood, intensive and long aftertaste with a hint of salt licorice.
    Unfortunately the last bottle since it easily could have been kept for many more years.

  • Pale orange-brick color. Slightly hazy. Absolutely enthralling on the nose. It’s subtle and soft-spoken yet has so much to say. It seems to shift second by second from a sweet ripe cherry fruitiness to a hint of rose-scented perfume to an evergreen-herbal suggestion of the forest to sweet cinnamon spice to a prickle of black pepper to a gamy-animal note of new leather and meat. On the palate, it’s simpler but still expressive. Bright sour cherry and underripe raspberry fruit, roses, dusty cellar, and herbs. Light body, lots of acid, just a touch of tannic grip, and a slight alcoholic heat on the finish. I don’t have enough experience with these wines to know where it is in its evolution except to say that it’s definitely developed beyond its primary stage. Where it will go from here I can’t say. But it’s a unique and very rewarding wine as it is now.

  • A real beauty that is now secondary. Stinky, funky nose. Lovely floral crunch on the palate. Great food wine.

  • Not much to add from previous note. Drinking well, great with Thanksgiving dinner.

  • Hour decant, this has a rustic nose of raspberry, rhubarb and earth with the palate staying in step. Light colored and light bodied, this is more on the acidic side with a tart bite. Pair with non spicy food and the earth/forest floor elements come more to the forefront.
