2/16/2021 - RandomCoil Does not like this wine: 84 pointsThis just isn’t good. Bright, crunchy, and funky - but none of these in a good way. |

1/31/2019 - RandomCoil wrote: 89 pointsThe other reviews indicate this is exactly what it was aiming to be - a domestic version of a notoriously tannic but light-bodied wine. |

8/14/2018 - RandomCoil Likes this wine: 92 pointsPurchased at the winery and tasted again now. Smokey and dark fruit. I would have probably called this a Syrah if tasted blind. |
