  Pop and pour and tasted with food and then o. Its own.
  Bright ruby color; clear.
  Nose offers red cherries and a smoky note.
  A bit rustic, but showing giid red cherry notes, some woodsy smoky side, and black and white pepper finish.

  Another spectacular showing, which during an evening of fine wines and finer company, it made a strong case for WOTN. A wine of tremendous purity, precision, and range. Stellar winemaking!

  Oh wow! This juicy, rustically terroir driven beauty stole my heart for the evening. Featuring tart red fruits and berries, pepper, teas, and mineral grip. The winemaker let nature express itself beautifully. New World wines that would fool me for Old World if blind always enchant! Compelling!

  I am tired of over-hyped beaujolais -- cru, village and nouveau. Too many sell-out / faux somms pushing the same juice.
  
  Poe is outstanding. Slightly fruit forward (cherry mostly) with pepper notes and great acidity. Enjoyed 2 bottles over the holiday. Really opened up on day two.

  Pop and pour and tasted with food (rigatoni in a sauce of cauliflower, proscuitto and friend tomato paste, in case you were wondering).
  Light purple-ruby color. Clear.
  Nose of red berries and a hay/grass like note.
  Fresh red berries and citrus (lime zest) on the intro. Palate cleaning acidity.
  This was served cellar temp (55F) and was better at the cooler temp. As it warmed, the acidity was more prominent.
