Decant and wait a long time before drinking. Once it breathes it reveals a bitter wine with licorice almost like an Amarone. Interesting style of Cabernet Sauvignon and good with steak or other meaty or chocolate flavors. Good value under $60. — 2 days ago

Okay Pinot Noir for $32. Astringent and not much going on. — 8 days ago

Acceptable Cabernet Sauvignon. Tight and asleep. Too strong and characterless. Overpriced even at $60. — 7 days ago

So elegant. Cherry but not fruity. Long finish. So smooth. Burgundian but with an American freshness in the attack. — 21 days ago

Another elegant Pinot Noir from Small Vines. Not as good as the 2017 but still a very smooth wine with excellent cherry flavor. — 6 days ago

Leave this wine open at least one hour. This wine was disappointing. It is a Central European white blend made in Napa Valley. I’m not sure what it is supposed to be exactly but it’s just okay. And it’s very expensive. Not worth the greater than $80 price tag. An inexpensive Austrian Gemiscshter Satz would be a better choice or a Northern Italian white blend. — 19 days ago
