Dark garnet with a brick rim..on the nose deep funk.. low tide at the seashore. Spice very little fruit On the palate tart cherry, tar, earth, high acidity with medium body and texture after sitting about 20 minutes fresh strrawberries. Finish is medium long One of the more complex wines ive had this year multilayered, evolving and imho improving as it waits for the next sip.. world class. Years to go with this.. should have bought more...

More twang on the tongue than The Mother Label. Finishes very muted and open. Doesn't possess the snuff to be aged ... will only lose its uniqueness IMO. [*edit* definitely lost its oomph on nights 2 and 3.] This is leagues better than the inaugural '17 vintage - which I found nearly undrinkable; hopefully the upward trend continues.

Pnp with pizza. A little funky, juicy fruity, some nice savory compexity. Thinner than previous vintages but maybe because we didn’t give it much time in the glass.
I couldn’t detect much nose beyond Rocks funk. Palate began pleasant enough but unremarkable. After half an hour it opened up nicely with a medium to full body, good balance, and enjoyable finish. Should give it more time after opening.

Very savory, reductive nose. Opened up a bit, I may be a half an hour. Some cherry, black and blue fruit. Some smoke and savory notes. Very little tannin, but good acidity. The only thing that got me was there was a slightly stringent note on the finish that I didn’t notice in the 2018. Otherwise the swine is a great value And represents all that I love about tires/no girls wines at an early drinking bottle

Rich, delicious dark red fruit with black raspberry and blueberry meaty flavors and funkiness, excellent structure, velvety viscous texture, long finish, surprisingly good

Ooh, entry level Cayuse! This can occasionally be had for $50, which might just make it the best wine I've had at that price point. I believe this is a blend of all three No Girls varietals (GST?) with a heavier pour on the Tempranillo. It's delicious, if a bit more generic--smoother?--than the profile one gets from any of the single varietal offerings. Lots of tart fruit, black tea, black pepper, and dried olive. A grassy nose. The finish suggests an apple into which one bit sixty seconds prior. Notes of fermentation funk. I want to age this but have a hard time resisting it young.

Tasty olive, earth, and smoked meat on the nose with delicious vibrant red fruit, pepper, and hint of floral notes on the lively palate with moderate long finish.

P&P; bright red berry fruit, tart acidity, drying tannins. A bit too young for me still I think...needs some time to integrate better, or else several hours in a decanter, which I didn't have available. Serious up-side with this one for sure. Drink 2024-2034.

Lovely, approachable wine. Blueberries and strawberries with an undercurrent of dark cherry. Earthy. Smells and tastes like the land. Uncomplicated and straightforward. Great food wine. Good QPR.

Bright Black and blue fruits. Herbaceous and floral. Funky, smooth and ready to drink now. One of the best values out there. Probably my favorite wine at the moment. Case buy.

Tart cherry; bright with red fruits, smoke, candy on the nose; palate is consistent with the nose. Also smooth mouth feel, easy drinking, nice finish. An enjoyable GST blend “2nd label” for No Girls. A very decent wine and one of the better QPRs in WA’s distinctive rocks district. Maybe let it air out in the glass for 30 minutes.

Funk on the nose but good fruit and moderate length. Probably a love it or leave it wine for most as most of the C Baron wines are.
