Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Third generation grower Jim Maresh launched his own brand in 2007. Maresh Vineyard was first planted in 1970 by grandparents Jim & Loie. Medium Ruby color with aromas of aa array of red berry fruits with a touch of cooling mint. On the palate cherry and berry fruits, well structured, with a touch of rustic spice. Fine dusty tannins, balanced with acidity, medium-bodied, long finish ending with earthy mineral character. Very Nice! — 20 days ago

Young but impressive. Light mixed berries, cinnamon, bright acidity. Damp earth emerges and fruit sweetens over time. — a month ago

Dark, full bodied, black and blue fruit with a through line of acidity. Hints of port on the finish. With nearly 10 years in bottle, it drank more like a cab than warmer climate Pinots, but had more vibrancy and delineation. — 22 days ago

Found a restaurant gem. 2013 vintage in 2025.

Leather and smoke. Earthy, old world wine. Then, a bit of berries and smooth finish. Great dinner wine. Could pair with almost anything. — 3 months ago
