"Aromas of ripe pears and Meyer lemon combine with gingerbread and vanilla notes, lush and viscous mouthfeel with a crisp mineral quality to the finish."

"Dry on the palate, freshness with noted acidity, medium body and flavours of mint on the finish. Enjoy as an aperitif, with seafood as well as with dishes cooked in white sauces. Makes an interesting combination with creamy pasta dishes and goat’s cheese."

"All of the concentrated layers of tropical fruit, citrus, and minerals that have made our Sleepy Hollow Vineyard famous. This wine has come to define Talbott style with power, richness, integrated oak and bright cool-climate acidity. Enjoy!"

"Reveals abundant aromas of crushed rocks, spring flowers and blue as well as black fruits in its darker, more cool climate style. It is completely different from the Grenache-dominated wines from the warmer climates of Cairanne, Rasteau, Vacqueyras or Gigondas. The impressive, deep, rich Vinsobres Les Cornuds comes from high elevation (400 feet) vineyards, and should easily age for 10 years." 90-93 pts, reviewed by Robert Parker.

"Aromas of wild strawberry and cherry. Dark cedar notes with a hint of mint and dried herbs. Ripe, medium weight and good volume with fine tannins and spicy length - finishing with dark fruits and savoury cedar."

"It has a clean Morello cherry and raspberry bouquet, whilst the palate is bounding full of ripe cherry and strawberry fruit. With its racy acidity, and with a powerful, creamy textured, peachy finish, this really is a lot of fun."
