Amazing wine. When I pulled the cork and saw the inky dark liquid that made me very hopeful. Then the first taste was fantastic with big fruit enveloped in a tight structure with integrated tannins and glycerin. I cannot remember ever drinking a better wine. Drank it with a paella cooked on an open fire that had chicken, chorizo, spanish sausage, mussels, scallops, and shrimp in a tomato saffron broth and the aborio rice. Superlatives are not enough to describe that meal.

This wine still tastes young and should last another 10 years.

Opened this today on 1/1/2012. This bottle has definitely gone over the edge. The cork looked beautiful and smelled fine. Nice inky cork that usually portends something wonderful. Alas, the wine has a rusty sort of color and tastes rusty too. Not very good. If you have any of these start drinking them before they turn.

This is an incredible bargain for $9.99. Bing Cherry fruit flavors on a nice structure with low tannins. Very easy to drink yet it has good substance to it.

My wife and I are contemplating a case of this.

This liqueur has been so much fun the last couple months. Our favorite has been 2 shots white wine, 2 shots club soda, 1 shot St Germaine over ice with a lime wedge. Any kind of white wine seems to work though Lillet Blanc is exceedingly good.

It also makes a wonderful vodka drink with equal parts St Germain, vodka, and limoncello shaken and served in a martini glass. There is a drink served at the Spoonbar in Healdsburg called the Corpse Reviver that uses St Germain. Check that out.

Sshh, don't tell anyone - just buy a case for yourself first. I was not believing the hype, but, bought a bottle to check it out anyways. When I opened the bottle there was the rich aroma wafting out of the bottle of glycerin. I smelled the cork and thought it was slightly on the "corky" side and was prepared for something not so nice. I smelled the bottle again and it smelled really good. Dark red color in the glass and a nose like a $30+ bottle of wine. A few swishes and taste and I was surprised how smooth this went down. There is some spice, sandalwood, and tannin backbone with cherry and blackberry fruit coming through. Great wine for the price.

Incredible wine for the price. Inky and dark that coats the cork, glass and your mouth. Has definitely matured and is drinking perfectly right now. I would not age this one more than a year or two. I am buying at least 6 more of these and maybe a case.

Fruity, easy drinking wine that has a very clean finish and enough complexity to be interesting This could be enjoyed with any of the white wine food groups. In addition, I can just imagine sipping a chilled glass on a hot summer day on the back patio with fruit, cheese, or a complementary hordouve. Great value.
