2019 Mullineux Syrah
4/25/2024 - Jonnhy99 Likes this wine: 90 Points
Syrah from South Africa has a very light aroma and colour. It has a light ruby colour & medium (-) aromas of cherry, clove, a hint of pepper, and blueberry.
The flavours are of medium intensity with cherry rhubarb, red plum, blueberry, Earl Grey tea, and minerals. The finish is dry and quick, but the wine is still lovely and delicate. This is not for those who prefer bombastic and ripe Syrahs.

2016 Castello Colle Massari Montecucco Rosso Riserva
4/25/2024 - Jonnhy99 Likes this wine: 89 Points
The wine is a blend of 80% Sangiovese, 10% Ciliegiolo, and 10% Cabernet Sauvignon. It has a bit of age and the fruit flavours lean towards the dry and dark side.
The wine is not a typical red fruit Sangiovese, the 10% Cab dominates the taste as time passes. It has earthy aromas of violet, licorice, red currant, black cherry, cassis and dried herbs. The flavours are similar with mineral notes and hints of basil on the medium finish.

2020 Bachelder Pinot Noir Vieilles Vignes Lowrey Vineyards
4/22/2024 - Jonnhy99 Likes this wine: 89 Points
The wine has a lovely aroma of cranberry, cherry, potting soil, and blueberry. On the palate, you will taste tart flavors of cherry, cranberry, citrus, and a hint of prune with a mineral finish. The finish is quick, but the wine is a delight to drink and pairs fantastically with frits. I recommend another two years before opening.
