Considering other comments, I assume this bottle was spoiled--it was barely drinkable.

$8 wine tastes like an $8 wine. Such a disappointment from a winemaker of Millier's caliber. I just wanted something to drink on a lazy evening---it served it's purpose.

I am not a big fan of "bubbles". I was just looking for something light to sip on during the winter storm. I will save some for the patio when it warms up, and probably save some bottles for the grandkids to make mimosas!

As we have come to expect from Matt Parish---and excellent wine. Young, but still as smooth as can be with no noticeable tannins. I will try and hold the remaining bottles for a while.

Had this wine with prime rib roast for Christmas dinner. Very disappointed in this wine. It was very weak and lacking in flavor and body.

Excellent! A rich wine full of berries and chocolate---smooth as silk. I thought I had ordered 6---and after sharing 2 bottles, I discovered that I all I had. And it is sold out!

An incredible wine. We enjoyed 2 bottles and I have 2 remaining. I will order more if it is available when I order again.

This wine was just "okay". I certainly expected better from this wine maker and for the price.

Very nice SB----enjoyed the wine very much---used some in shrimp scampi!

Usually a great wine from this winemaker, but the heat must have damaged this bottle.

I grabbed this bottle and opened it without realizing it was new---I just wanted an easy drinking everyday wine to enjoy. It was very good, but sweeter than I wanted. This bottle should have stayed in the cooler for a few months--or longer. I need to pay more attention!!
Red
Nice wine, but definitely needed more time in the bottle. I just grabbed it out of the cooler and did not pay attention to what I was getting!
Red
So smooth---the bottle went down so easily and quickly. Sad that this is my last bottle of this vintage.

I did not taste this wine. Jerry drank it, but did not like it. Albarino is a little different--I have enjoyed it in the past.

I was wanting a red wine--but something light--it is still very hot in Texas!!! I pulled this bottle out of the cooler and it was perfect for my taste this evening. You can never go wrong with a Matt Parish wine!

Awesome wine! The reserve vintage is much nicer than the "regular"--it is nice, but takes a little more air time than the reserve.

Another lovely wine from Matt Parish. I had no idea what to expect from this wine-It was heavier than expected, a bit unusual, but very good. There was a significant amount of residue in the bottle.
Red
As expected, this is an incredible wine. So glad I have more to hold a little longer.
Red
Very nice---needed a little time to breathe to get rid of the "bite", but it went away quickly in the glass. Just enough spice to be interesting but not overwhelming. Paired nicely with spaghetti.

This wine is okay---but would not be among my favorite Viognier.

Missing Jim Olsen and his great wine. This Chardonnay was disappointing--I feel just past it's prime.

Soft and nice to sip on while relaxing with fiends on the patio. Nice rose with lovely bubbles.

Overall, I am disappointed in Kara's offerings. With her father working with her, I expected better. But, she is young---I will give her a chance because I really enjoy most of her father's wines.

Ken and Derek produce a nice wine. Zinfandel is not my favorite varietal, but theirs is a great offering.
Red
A bit disappointed in this bottle. I have other bottles of this wine/vintage that I enjoyed. I think my current stress level corrupts my taste buds!

This wine was "okay" but nothing special. I had expected better.

This wine is aging nicely. It is good now, but I think will be better later. Hopefully, I can get a few more bottles.

Amazing!! So refreshing for a spring afternoon on the patio.

Amazing Pinot Noir----has continued to soften. I wish I had more.

I am not sure if this was a compromised bottle or just not to my taste--which I doubt since normally I enjoy Scott's wines. I had a few sips on the first night, but could not drink any more. I had hoped for improvement the second night, but it did not happen. After a few sips, I poured it out So sad!!!
White - Sweet/Dessert
This wine was too sweet even for the sweet wine lover in the house!

On opening, I found this to be a bit tart for a Riesling. As it warmed a bit, it became sweet. It is a very light wine, much lighter than I had anticipated.
