What you want in a true, Austrian Blaufränkisch. Great depth and balance from the nose to the finish. Wonderful. — 2 months ago

A favorite WA wine to date. Very soft and fruity to start, long finish with a bit of grip. Would buy again for sure. Lots of mushroom, lots of oak — 5 years ago

Mild pear on the nose. It starts crisp and acidic with citrus. Long, dry finish with more of a pear and apple finish. — 6 years ago

This drinks perfectly at 11 years old. Definitely Jura reminiscent. A bit tight at first, tart lemon and rind. Then toasted marshmallow and burnt sugar, then some funk. Just brilliant. — 7 years ago

First time trying and wow - nicely woven integrated wine but my friend and fellow wine nerd @Shay A says it best so borrowing his comments from 2018 and I quote

“Jarvis winery is one of my all time favorite winery visits in Napa. Their caves are the most impressive I've seen, along with their natural springs running through the tunnels. Their merlot is my favorite out of Napa, and their
Cab Franc is a close second. This is 95% CF, 5% merlot. It balances ripe Napa CF and Loire Valley CF. Streak of green bell pepper down the middle with herbal spice, ripe
blackberry and stemmy dark fruits. There is plum, and spice cake on the finish. This needed an hour+ for the mid palate to beefen up and match the entry and finish”

Bravo and well said Shay - glad I found my patience with this wine bud — 4 years ago

Really enjoyed this. Bright fruit, leather, a hint of brett to keep things interesting. — 7 years ago

Nimble, funky jaminess - the opposite of what you’d expect of a Cali Zin with almost 14% abv, in the best possible way. Very much in harmony and for my money, Scholium at its accessible best. — 7 years ago

Curvy rose! Plump cherry and blood orange. Bright and fresh. 70+ year old Zinfandel vines from light sands in Lodi. A nice wink to Cerasuolo! — 8 years ago

Nice acid acid up front, lemon, a touch of oxidation and - don’t laugh - celery seed. We even ate some celery seeds to confirm. — 9 years ago

Golgotha - Scholium Project 2010.
Widowmaker Block Hudson Vineyards.

Abe, the man who would be king, gifted this bottle (amongst many others) to me after being an Intern in 2013. They travelled from Napa to London to Western Australia.
15 years later on a Monday night of a week I wasn’t meant to be drinking…
I pulled it out of the wine fridge in Margaret River. Cork fresh as a daisy and some decent sediment on first pour. Aerated with Vinturi and poured. Some early VA blew away and a Star Was Born. The floral powderiness on my mid palate is intoxicating. Never before have I tasted a big inky, 15% delicate ballerina like this. So glad I opened it alone so we can have a week together understanding each other. Has to be Petite Syrah. Wine study X 1000 ♥️ Pretty Pimpin — a year ago

Unique. Cherry pit bitterness that plays really well. Not for everyone but I like a lot. — 5 years ago

Moric’s Hausemarke (house wine) Super Natural sounds like a late night Austrian infomercial and tastes like chunky peach vanilla soft serve. The label is a deliberate misnomer - this is definitely not house wine.

It’s beautifully aromatic with well integrated oak, orchard fruits, lime, and white pepper.

Mostly Gruner - about 30% Chardonnay. Crisp and clean. — 6 years ago
