Very nice wine. Balanced and complex. Super easy to drink and would go very well with a nice cheese & cracker plate.

I’ve had this before and it’s gotten better with age. O’Shaughnessy always delivers and does it well.

Extremely nice wine. The nose is complex but balanced. A nice bouquet that I could spend all night with my nose in the glass. The palette is the same scenario. Well balanced with a little bit of tannins at the end. I can see this still getting better in the next couple years.

This wine is beautiful. Very tasty. The nose has hints of cinnamon, tar, roses, light leather. Complex pallet that has a zest and zeal unlike a lot of wines I’ve had. Well worth picking up and giving it a shot.

Very, very nice wine. I would love to be able to drink it again. Spicy yet lovely on the nose. Complex and so easy to drink. Good by itself and good with food. Definitely get your hands on a bottle and enjoy for yourself.

A very nice wine with interesting complexities. Had this from my friends cellar. Happily able to have a glass with a nice spaghetti dinner.

Very nice, very complex palette. Delicate pepper tones and a blend of savory light bacon and herbs. The nose is complex and enticing. Would love the possibility of having another go.

I had this about 6 years ago and it has aged a lot. It was a very good bottle this time around. Very nice in the nose and very smooth on the palette. If you can find it it is highly recommended.

Very complex and tasty. Same goes with the nose. The wine is worth multiple sips for as long as you can muster.

Savory and complex. The nose is hard to pinpoint because there is so much going on. There is a strong green olive taste for the finish. No tannins. It is really good. The taste has already changed a bit from the first sip.

The nose is amazing. This wine is savory and complex. I’m sure it’s the only one I’ll ever get to try. Tannins are mellow to non existent. Low acidity. Cherry and leather on the nose with a hint of celery. Similar to the taste but there is a bit of spice with that.

Very wonderful nose. I could smell this all night. Minor earth tones mixed with dark berries. The wine is an easy one to injest. Low to no tannins and a touch of acidity. The finish is long with a bing cherry ride. There is a hint of copper as well. Smooth.

Rich with a cascade of notes on the nose and the pallet. Black berries and spice are what I catch with a strong finish. Nice a full.

Decanted for a good three to four hours. The nose was still a tiny bit hot. Very fruity nose and on the tongue. Mixed berries with a decent finish. Not a favorite but still worth having again.

Very nice nose. I could savor just the nose all day. It has an upswing of a hint of sweet at the finish. Very nice. There is a lot going on with this wine. It feels very balanced in the taste and smell. I would love to drink this again and often.

Avery good and very full Cab. Decant this for a bit before drinking as it retains its hotness if you don’t. Minerals and dark berries on the nose. It’s big on the pallet. Tiny bit of earth with a mineral like taste that you would smell after a light rain. A bing cherry mix is there as well and something else I can’t place. It has a nice finish that doesn’t linger too long but long enough. I would love to drink again.

Decent. It was pretty smooth all around. Easy to drink. The only problem was it did not stand out. I would absolutely drink again but it’s one of those wines that is very pleasant all around but once it’s the next Day memories of the wine will pass.

Exceptional wine. Complex in both the nose and the palette. It has a crispness to it kind of like biting into fresh celery. The nose reminds me of being inside a walk in humador with all the different cigar variables. Rich and savory.

Decent wine. Was easy to drink. Very smooth but lacked in complexity. No to low tannins, and low acidity. Would drink again, good for a mellow wine.

This seems ok. I opened it and used a vinturi to aerate it. I was a at a party and could not appropriately give an opinion of it. I think this needs to be opened and left to sit a couple hours at least to really open it up and have the complexities shine through. It’s pretty decent. I will give a better note on the next bottle I have.

Beautiful. Buttery, wonderful, smooth and worth giving it a try. The nose is wonderful and full. Legs and a nice ruby color. Buttery pepper notes with a hint of deep cherry. This wine is pretty amazing and one of the top I’ve had the pleasure of trying.

I was lucky enough to share a bottle with a friend. Exceptional. Black olive on the nose with a hint of pepper, clove and a touch of oiled leather. There are legs but they move fast. Very easy to drink, smooth as silk. It has a pretty decently long finish that is pleasing and makes you long for more. If you get a chance definitely try this.

It’s an interesting Zinfandel. This would benefit greatly from some time spent with air. Had it about two hours out of the bottle and it seemed tart. There are a lot of things going on here. Complex notes for sure. It would be good to try later after some time has passed.

There is no like with this wine. Only love. I had it with my wife for our anniversary dinner. From the first sip to the last it was bold and complex and perfectly suited for my pallet. We had lasagna with it and the meal brought out even more generous complexities that complimented the experience. The only complaint I have is I wish I had another bottle.

Rich and bold. The nose is olive with a hint of licorice. The palate is similar. There is also a hint of leather. The finish is long. Full and a lot going on. Given time I believe it will open up even more.

Tasty. This is a very aromatic wine. The nose is full and a tiny bit sweet. Little bit of nutmeg mixed in. Long legs. These legs stretch and dance. The taste is good. Complex with a smooth finish.

Very complex on the nose and the palette. Black berry, licorice, forest and something else I can't place. There is so much going on I can't place it all but it's been wonderful trying to figure out the complexities in this wine. The taste is similar to the smell but with extra. As I'm drinking it it is also changing and becoming a richer experience. I would love to try this over days and see how it matures.

This was different but just ok tome. Not bad but not exciting. The nose and taste reminded me of spring and celery. I would give this a higher rating but I do believe it will just not be memorable.

I can't remember if I'd added a note for this or not before. I really like this wine a lot. Very crisp and has a lot going on. A nice zesty spot in the aftertaste. Mineral on the nose with a fresh stream smell. The wine has a long complex finish. Worth the money if you can find it.

Taurasi, what's more to say? Succulent and lovely. I can enjoy the nose on this for hours. Rich with hints of cinnamon, spring water, and a multitude of delicious other blends of lovely. There is a nice spice that's low on tannins and acidity to it. Very smooth and complex with a long finish. So much good.

Very different and interesting wine. The nose caught me off guard as it has a heavy salt water and olive smell to it. The taste reflects it only the green olive taste mixed with a hint of red meat linger long after the swallow. Savory and rich.

It was interesting. Very much in the port style or brandy type drink. Drink this with a good chocolate chip cookie or vanilla ice cream.

Very interesting wine. The nose reminds me of walking through a produce area in a supermarket mixed with a hint of sausage. The color has a brown hue due to age. This is tasty. There are no tannins and no legs on this. It's refreshing and so interesting. It has a crispness to it and is changing rapidly. I'm happy I got to give this a go.

So good. I could replace oxygen with the nose on this. Smooth after a couple hour decant. Dark raspberry, light tannins, refreshing with an acidic balance to compliment the tannins. Velvet from the oak. Nice, I will miss it.

Very nice. Deep black berry and leather on the palate. Very rich and full. A nice nose to drown in when not enjoying the pleasant taste.

The nose is rich as is the taste. Tannins are mild as is the acidity. The taste has a pretty decently long finish. This is a savory wine, vanilla is an undercurrent with coffee and maybe a hint of leather. I like this quite a bit.

Pretty alrighty good. Very fruity on the nose. The taste is jammy and sweet. This has long legs and is different than a lot of Cab Franc wines I've had. Worth another bottle.
