4/13/2014 - elizabethk Likes this wine: 86 pointsThis tannic wine did not have a strong aroma, opening with leather, and light notes of raspberry, cherry, smoked meat and a hint of anise. There was not strong fruit on the attack, just a hint of cherry, but finishes with blackberry and charcoal. It is medium - fullbodied with a rough tannic feel and moderate finish. Although not a great wine for sipping, it is a classic European wine in that it pairs wonderfully with food, especially cheese and grilled meat. |

4/13/2014 - elizabethk Likes this wine: 89 pointsA lovely representation of this varietal with classic flavors and aromas and a strong tannic backbone. Clear and ruby-colored with fast legs, This wine strikes the nose first with a strong slate aroma, then opens up with blackberry, plum, violet, gingerbread spice and a hint of game. Blackberry jam on the attack, leather on the midpalate and a lingering finish tinged by gingerbread spice. It is medium to full bodied. This is a lovely sipping wine, and also pairs well with roasted meats. |

2011 Carlson Creek ChardonnayWillcox more |
12/15/2013 - elizabethk Likes this wine: 90 pointsWe tasted this wine along with a well-regarded Sonomay County Chardonnay and a Chablis from Burgundy. The Carlson Creek Chardonnay shown above both of the others with its complexity and artful balance of fruit and structure. Aromas of vanilla and gentle floral notes, apple/pear compote and a hint of cardamom. It has balanced acidity, a creamy but light mouthfeel. Apple flavors on the attack, a midpalate of almond and vanilla and a lingering finish of cinnamon and more apple flavors. This wine is a stunning reflection of southern Arizona's terroir and its winemaker's careful nurturing. |
