Pleasant-enough bubbles for a Tuesday night; worth repeats at the price

Another enormous body offering depth of layers few can match. Love gjallerhorn

Holy cow is this good. Enough oak to tame the brightness just enough. Wonderful wine.

Solid tuesday wine. Fruity, tart, good enough for occasional repeats.

Whoops. Didn't need to buy such a sweet wine. My bad.

Easy worth repeats. Bright and light, with the acidity dialed.

4/3/2024 - After4ever Does not like this wine:

Funky. Drinkable once, but too much melon rind on the finish.

Pleasant and balanced and worth repeats

So juicy...maybe shoulda waited? Don't care. Intense and jammy voluptuous, just wonderful.

Holy cow this is good. Bright and acidic and totally harmonious.

Easy to finish, nice lemon, but acidity is too imbalanced to bother repeating.

Inoffensive, no major flaw, nice for cooking, not much interest for $14 though

Dry and balanced with interesting layers of fruit and minerals. So lovely.

Amazing bright and refreshing wine. Worth multiple repeats at the right price.

Beautiful balance and solid restrained character. A bit mild but worth repeats at the price.

Delightful bright acidic wine for the price. Repeatable.

Worth repeats esp at the price. Bright, crisp, quite dry. Good cooked with fish. Super easy.

Fine, not worth repeats at this price. Lots of tropical fruit when cold.

Pleasant enough for a cheap one, tart and refreshing, we both would drink again

Perfectly balanced dryness, bubbles invigorating without being overdone. Lovely and worth repeats

Wonderful lemony bright refreshing easy wine, even on a cold damp winter night

Better when very cold, then a little over tart, but worth an occasional repeat at <$12

Great tuesday night wine. Delicious, balanced, with mild fruit. Very coherent for a low-key wine.

Beautiful bright fruit on top, smooth balance and soft heft on the mid, nice dry finish. Easily worth repeats.

Worth the $8 but too sweet and acidic to repeat.

Absolutely delicious--tart and bright

Sticky sweet with that weird powdered sugar/aspartame note that i need to learn the name of. Hate to bash it since it was a random act of kindness from a stranger, but this is not a repeater.

Much better than it was a couple of years ago. Medium oily body a little bit sweet on the pallet a little bit floral spicy on the finish. Enjoyable. Gotta love the official whiskey of the Seattle Kraken.

Pour at Cabernets & IPAs. Wonderful big-bodied, round-flavored up front but settles into balance and layers before the finish. Lovely.

I've enjoyed every JO variant I've tried. This one is another, smooth, balanced, layered, approachable, and soft delight. No rough edges anywhere. Mild sweet nose showing caramel and dried fruit and a hint of that marine saline. Warm, soft, smooth body, nice caramel, fruit, and baking spice notes. Easy finish. I could drink this stuff all the time (if that were a cost-effective choice).

Pleasant and balanced, avoids the common cab pitfalls. Not a ton of presence or character, especially after trying a couple other nice choices, but holds its own well enough.
