This wine was balanced acid, low fruit, low oak, very pleasant to drink really like this appellation. Great price point buy some more for Sauvignon Blanc.

Young, balanced, well structured lively tannes. One needs to hold this wine. However, for $18.00 this is a high end Rhone at a very high end price.

Young, well structured. This wine is well made once you get some air on the wine it will open up. A great example of a Cab Franc. You can lay this down for a year.

Hi Perhaps it is a benchmark on how far this wine needs to come.
This wine is too young too hot with alcohol and not very well blended this is not a benchmark.

Too much acid, a long finish. This wine is light and bright but lacks sophistication not refreshing very acidity.

This is a very nice port. The cork had a little run about 1/8 wide. The port had a slight cork smell however after some air the smell dissipated.

I had this wine years ago, about 5, the particular wine appellation is very quality driven. Balanced fruit and a long dry finish, this is a very good wine especially at this price. The price has increased over the years, however, it is still worth the price for the quantity. When this wine open, let it set for at least an hour. Then enjoy another 2010 sleeper from Oregon. The world is a wash with outstanding wines at all points.

This a great example of a Grenache/ Rhone wine more on the old vine style south of French
Balance fruit solid black cherries not be big warn finish lasting just the right length of time to indicate quality and structure in this wine. I have consumed a lot of Cote du Rhone village and I must say that this wine is stop on, well done! I need to buy more after two cases. Out standing, one can really taste the earth with this wine This wine is drinking just right (2013) you will not be hurt by holding this for a year, however, the fruit and tannin will soften but now is the time to drink this wine.
