If you love Cherry Pie you’re going to love this wine. It’s interesting when an old school wine region (France) makes a new world style wine. You often end up with a one note wonder, like this cherry blaster. It did earn 3 stars because it’s a very well made wine that is fresh and juicy.

This is a real non-descript middle of the road merlot. I do like merlot from time to time when it has some structure. Merlot isn’t in Italy’s wheelhouse. That’s fine, they have better things growing.

Need a recommendation on bringing a bottle of wine to a dinner party? Look no further, this is the one.
If you want to taste the a nearly perfect text book definition of Cabernet Sauvignon get a bottle of this wine. I’m going throw out some traditional wine language then translate it. The wine is clean, correct, and integrated. Terrific mouth feel. Translated, no unexpected or unusual flavours. All the smells and tastes are working together. No lingering heat or flavours in the mouth.
I had to dock it a star because I found it a bit light in terms of weight. But, to the people who find Cabs overwhelming, this is a feature, not a bug.
Our earlier Bread & Butter Pinot Noir review was also a strong 4/5. We’re keeping our eye on this winery.

Expectations were high going in to this one. It’s a well known label from a wine growing super power, Columbia Valley in Washington State. The initial tasting has me wanting more. A bit thin, a bit simple, a bit tannic. Fast forward a couple of hours and the wine changed, a lot. Nice subtle flavours, smooth, great with the meat pasta I served it with. A great wine, just didn’t totally deliver it’s potential.
