  September 18, 2021 - Lively and likable. Good fruit, somewhat unusual flavor. The comparisons to Beaujolais are helpful, but this is also a California mountain wine. Distinctive.

  March 20, 2021 - Always a great bottle of wine, more fruit than the 2012 and less tannins.

  September 2, 2017 - Delicious all the way. Peppery and vibrant like a good Alpine example but with the warm fruit and sunshine of CA. A little grippy tannin and a brambly finish.

  January 18, 2017 - This is my first time tasting this variety, so I don't have a frame of reference. It was enjoyable as an experience, but not sure I'd go out and buy another bottle. The descriptions here are accurate-- savory, carbonic, structured, etc. There were some barnyard notes on the palette that disappeared with decanting, but it did develop a strange nose after a couple hours. Hard to describe- something inorganic. But this was a mild distraction to an otherwise unusual yet drinkable wine.

  January 3, 2017 - Wilypod nailed it. Dark, almost black. Violets, carbonic-esque fruitiness, and white pepper on the nose. Palate dominated by savory notes, tannic finish. Kinda like a rustic Beaujolais with a lot more backbone. All the pleasure is on the nose right now.
