4/29/2024 - Brian Glas Likes this wine: 93 pointsWow an explosion of fresh cut pears on the nose here. Super expressive pears on the palate as well. Lemon zest. Tang. Excellent balance. Very interesting and quite a bit going on here. Saline. |

4/26/2024 - PIntag wrote: 90 pointsAnother Tercero white that comes alive as it warms to room temperature. Nice aromatics, good balancing acidity, little bit of waxy texture. Depth is lacking a bit - not really a hollow mid-palate, but it clearly dropped off. I'm being a little nit-picky here, but it was noticeable and my wife also commented on it. Consistent notes over two days. |

4/21/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsAgain, another Tercero white that blossoms as it warms to room temp. This Roussane was loaded with flavors and textures, a fascinating white that deserves attention and delivers enjoyment as well. These off-the-beaten-path Tercero whites are a journey for the wine lover who is tired of the "usual" varieties. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

4/21/2024 - fingers Likes this wine: NROn the heels of the Clone 115, this seems much more ready to go and willing to deliver. The mouthfeel is smoother and there's just more going on in the bouquet. Though, it also seems like time will be of benefit for this as well. 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

4/20/2024 - merryberry Likes this wine: 92 pointsSlightly translucent crimson. Nutmeg, cedar, and plum nose. Medium to full bodied, savory, with dark red fruit, dirty tannins, and a smooth long finish. Delicious. |

2020 Tercero Pinot Noir Clone 115 Kessler-Haak VineyardSta. Rita Hills more |
4/20/2024 - fingers wrote: NRNo experience with this vineyard, clone, or vintage, but this left me a little underwhelmed compared to this producer's Rhone lineup. To me, it comes across as a generic Central Coast PN with a heavy influence from the alcohol (even though it's only 13.5%) hovering over the underlying varietal character. No way that I'm saying it isn't a well-made wine, it just isn't a style I favor. Happy to be proven wrong if my remaining bottle ages into something more to my liking. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

4/12/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsFlavorful, crisp acidity, good weight but not heavy. Kind of a citrus flavor profile - probably on the grapefruit spectrum with some bitter phenolic notes. This was very good at fridge temp but showed more at room temp (70F) and was still refreshing. My wife and I are really enjoying going through all of these interesting Tercero whites. |

4/5/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsNot giving much at refrigerator temp. As it warmed to room temp, this showed its weight and complexity. Lots going on here, with a symphony of textures and flavors. Really enjoyed this contemplative white. Another Tercero white that deserves to be treated like a red as far as serving temperature. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

2017 Tercero CarignaneSanta Barbara County more |
4/9/2024 - fingers Likes this wine: 92 pointsClear and bright ruby color, about 60% opaque with a speck of sediment at the bottom. Profound, muscular bouquet of dark toast and ripe berry salad along with kefta spices. The palate brightens up some, adding more red berry and plum. This has Larry's signature showing in regards to the balance and texture of this wonderful interpretation. Carignane, I usually find to be lacking something and gives me the feeling like Granache or Syrah needs to be blended in. But this is just fine on its own, and I think it will get even more interesting as time goes on. 5+12+17+8= 92 |

2016 Tercero Grenache BlancSanta Barbara County more |
4/7/2024 - Discobiscuits42 wrote: 91 pointsQuite golden in color. Nose — peach, pear, butterscotch. Quite intense on open and diminished fairly significantly in the thirty minutes I have had open. Palate — m+ acidity, quite a persistent finish. Peach, butterscotch, lemon, a little wood element. A touch acidic on front end, then dives in mid palate, with an acidic pop on the back end. Very nice mouthfeel. It does get better with air. Acidity is a bit high, it overshadows some of the complexity in the wine. Overall a very nice wine. Quite nice on day 2, still a lot of flavor and decent balance with acidity more in check. |

2021 Tercero Mourvèdre RoséSanta Barbara County more |
4/4/2024 - fingers Likes this wine: NRThis bottle was fully back on point since it wasn't stored in a freon-leaking wine fridge. Drank this over 4 days open and solid to the finish. I do have to think of it more like a full-bodied white because it reminds me so much of a nice Gewurz or Rhone blanc and I think it pairs with food the same way. Too serious to be just a summertime porch pounder. |

3/29/2024 - PIntag wrote: NRThe wife opened another bottle. Again, nothing remarkable at refrigerator temp, but was super flavorful and interesting as it warmed to room temp. Probably a good idea to treat this as a red wine (55 degree temp to start, and then let it warm at room temp as you go through the bottle). 2 people found this helpful, do you?
