Really nice folks. Met the winemaker who was really nice to speak w
2018 Rose – lovely nose. Very nice and refreshing. Obviously must be chilled
‘20 vermentino – grapefruit on the nose. It’s really very nice albeit just a tad sweet. I guess I just don’t like whites
2016 Cab Franc – per Kelly, a little more mature (unlike him) and the right amount of spice. I love love love the nose. Exactly what a cab franc should be not a lot of spice but really just perfect
2019 cab sauv – per Kelly who thinks he know everything – sophisticated fruit like strawberries and red cherries but not overly sweet. Per me – it’s ok
2016 Merlot – I found the nose to have a little brandy scent. Kelly found the nose. Well, scratch that. He can’t smell anything. He blames Albert . Poor Albert. I think Kelly is a bigot. He also thinks the merlot is ok. He’ll drink it but wouldn’t buy it. Than again, if it’s free, he’ll drink pigeon poop
2016 chambourcin – lively nose. Deep and delicious. Flavor is distinctive. Catching strawberry but not too sweet. Kelly got a little watermelon. Nutmeg on the back side of the tongue. Kelly said allspice but then admitted he has no idea what allspice tastes like
