Always interesting to try the Kirkland bottles. This one is fine, but not integrated or balanced enough to shine. Fruit is a bit dull. But not bad. — 3 days ago

Delicious — fresh strawberry, hints of tropical fruit, mineral, honeysuckle, good acid and subtle white floral notes. Beautifully balanced. Paired well with smoked turkey burgers. — 15 days ago

This was a fun surprise at a tasting. It’s Chianti, but it’s surprisingly fresh and juicy, albeit with acid and tannin, as you’d expect. A bit effervescent, also a surprise. Paired well with grilled smoked salmon. — a month ago

Fun, surprising, a bit adventurous. Wild blueberries, sour cherry, herbal notes. Oak, pepper. As another reviewer noted, more savory than sweet. I don’t recall having many, if any, wines from Cypress before. I’m inspired to try more. — 4 days ago

Ripe purple fruit and cocoa/vanilla notes. Deep inky color. Some leather. Plenty of tannin. Very good, but could be more integrated to really sing. — 9 days ago

Great early September wine. Pairs beautifully with smoked chicken and asparagus. Melon, peach, tropical fruit notes, citrus, honey, and floral notes. Plenty of acid and clean mineral finish. — 18 days ago

Brine, sea salt, lemon curd, hints of almond. Worked nicely in and paired with a shrimp pasta dish. Could be more harmonious but a good value. — a month ago
