So young. So rustic and tannic. There is a lot of potential here but it just doesn't have a super enjoyable presence now. I wanted to love this obviously.
A really enjoyable rose. Some nice weight. Balanced with great minerality, the grapefruit and floral components lead to a long finish. Wow, why can't other New World Rose taste like this? Well done Maggie.
A sexy Pinot, agreed. Olive, raspberries, chocolate and spicy minerality. Unique and exotic with a creamy pleasant mouth feel. Toasty notes on the back end make you come back for more.
Oh my goodness. One of the wines of the day. So supple and elegant. Soft and young. Racy fig Newtons mixed with dark currants and some white pepper. Long well structured palate. Needs some time on its side. Really killer juice.
Holy crap. The whole line up here was outstanding. For this price, this is a must buy. Exotic earthy, truffles, wet dog, stinky flowers. Lots of berries. Palate is full of richness and finesse. Such a great wine. Can't wait to dig deeper into Trisaetum's portfolio.
Without a doubt my Wine of the Day. All one could want in a shroomy rich, peaty wine. Lots of white pepper, white Alba truffle, bright pink rose petals. Long finish. Really great mouth feel. This has everything. One of the best Oregon Pinot Noir I've tasted.
