November 1, 2023 - Very Pinot Noir like in body and style. An excellent red for lighter food pairings.
October 7, 2023 - Absolutely loved this bottle. Poured almost orange and translucent. The color belies the depth and complexity of the wine… bursting floral, smoky, and wild strawberry nose and a palate to match. Both subtle and dramatic simultaneously. I have really liked this wine over the years, but this is my favorite bottle so far.
July 14, 2023 - Transparent ruby, wild strawberry, high acid, love these
June 3, 2023 - This bottle showed very well, felt like peak drinking. Light and fruit-centric but in a proper relationship with the overall build. Stood up against a ribeye with a chocolate coffee rub.
September 2, 2022 - Always my favorite Sandlands bottling. So unique and tasty.
July 18, 2022 - Like others have stated, almost like a dark rose in color. Red raspberries and strawberries with a very nice glycerin finish. First time I’ve tried this wine (looks more like cranberry juice in the glass). I think it’s at its apex today.
May 28, 2022 - Very enjoyable. Fresh and savory. Serve slightly chilled.
March 25, 2022 - Compared to my last bottle, this is a little more savory; palate is still primarily strawberry with spiced floral notes; really great juiciness with a bit heavier saline kick than previously; not as much tartness now either.
Drink now or within the next year. Love these Trousseaus!
December 2, 2021 - Crazy light red color. Fresh red fruit, tasty.
Outplayed a 2019 Val di Suga we had first
July 14, 2021 - Consistent with previous bottle. Drinking great right now. Loaded with wild strawberry notes with a touch of spice.
