Sadie Family, Columella Vintage:2013 The lilting and lacy medium

The lilting and lacy medium weight flavors possess a refined mouth feel on the mineral-driven flavors that are almost delicate while terminating in a restrained and lingering finish

sometimes spicier notes that revealed just a lactic hint that denotes youth

Firm reduction renders the nose unreadable at present

elegant and lush

Sadie Family, Columella Vintage:2013 The lilting and lacy mediumThe 2017 Columella has an outgoing, intense bouquet, a mixture of red and black fruit mixed with sage, tobacco and thyme, that seems a little smudged initially but gains clarity with aeration. The palate is medium bodied with fine grained tannins, plenty of red berry fruit, a generous sprinkling of white pepper and a hint of fennel. Powerful yet refined, and very focused and harmonious on the finish. Gorgeous. Neal Martin
