Sweet tropical fruits with delicate bouquet of a lot of orchard fruits. Elegant finish. Drinking well and best served not too cold.

Muted cherry nose and smoothest of taste. No alcohol perceptible.

Light golden yellow barley oxidized over time. Not too sweet and lasted a full week. Great in broth for mussels and pepper butter.

The 2007 is better. Decanted and waited a few hours but not as good as when it was younger.

Smooth no tannins. Since it is closed it needs decanting

Orange color with apples and appricots. Big wine high in alcohol but went well with food.

Light red, low alcohol, great fragrant smell with taste of strawberry more than cherry. Great with food.

Smelled of alcohol and grapes and cherry, which blew off after a few minutes. Red Fruit and easy to drink. Great with food.

Chilled light red with bubbles. Easy drinker.

Straw yellow color with a taste that shows focus and restraint and acidity. Much better than the red wine offerings he makes.

Very ripe red fruit.

No fruit left and never got out of the austere phase. Its drinkable but I doubt this ever will taste good going forward.

A mix between Cabernet Sauvignon and Grenache. Smooth tannins and went well with food.

Dark yellow but not too fruity sweet. This is wonderful young. Was past its prime on the third day. Drink up

Bought this online recently and the top of the cork had mold. The wine lacked sweetness. It was everyones least favorite out the Mosel Resiling tasting group.

Orange in color and oxidized Pino Gris and Riesling. Odd tasting on its own but went great with spicy asian food.

This bordeaux no longer has any fruit but it has tons of secondary attributes and structure. Taste great with a fresh steak.

11/4/2020 - Tallhoyalawya Does not like this wine:

Carbonation upon opening. Light yellow color and lots of water in the glass. Better on the third day.

Left the bottle open for three hours but I didn't decant. Seems like two hours would be enough at this stage. Mostly cab this vintage it seems a little more fruit forward, accessible with a little edge. Firm tannins. Refrigerated for 2 days and the last bit was not noteworthy. One bottle left.

Green Apple and straw on this yellow crisp chardonay. Drinking well now.

Light red with sediment. Austere California pinot that didn't open up much during dinner. That said it has less ripe fruit and more acidity than most new world pinots. Could use more time or decanting.

Dark Red to hint of light brown with a little sediment. Drank over two days. Strong fruit and integrated tannins. Wouldn't hold it too much longer.

Nice meritage blend. Small amount of tannins and fruit. Drink now.

Low alcohol with not as much mouthfeel as the last bottle.

Dark fruit is still there but the taste didn't evolve overtime when drinking for two days. No complexity but good structure.

Not as good a bottle as the first time I had it. Perhaps didn't open up as much since it was drunk to fast. Good summer wine.

This light yellow, dry, sharply acidic, low alcohol Riesling is very young and fresh. Went better with food after opening for an hour. Style is popular now but wonder how long it would age?

Slight carbonated bright yellow low alcoholic Chardonnay.

This is no meritage. Sweet 100% Napa Cab style. Dark Purple with Sediment. Strong mid palate taste of dark fruit. Not exactly disjointed but the taste seemed to come in a different order than I'm used to. Single taste profile of a New World wine that didn't vary over three days.

8/6/2020 - Tallhoyalawya Likes this wine:

Great mouthfeel and warm bouquet. Spritz and low in alcohol.

Taste like you think a German Pinot would. Great value and good with food. Light ruby color with hidden alcohol. Depth of red fruit with a slight structure. Better on day two.

Still has red fruit and tannins on back tongue. Slight mineral on the back end. Muted nose and probably should have drank already. Better on second day. This tastes like a Burgundy wine.

7/9/2020 - Tallhoyalawya Likes this wine:

Hesitant to open up, very structured with red fruit and musty minty nose. Held up well against sweet and spicey food. Didn't open up on day two.
