  1. Tough call. Best wine shop near you is Chapel Hill Wine Co, if you are looking for education, they taste on Saturdays. Vin in downtown Raleigh has small pours 1.5 oz available for a couple bucks and you can taste through a lot of wines. Overall, there list is not that large actually. I like the wine list at South, but most selections are by the bottle not glass. Best advice is to find a tasting group and a great retailer who will educate you and help you discover what you love. Sign up and contact every wine shop so you can get in on tastings. Cheers.
  2. Hi Daniel, Interesting wine, I've had it and would not disagree with your note, I liked it more. . I think the wine was pretty bright with, well frankly a lot going on. I think this is called the "Cena". Oddly he released another wine from the same juice but with 3 more months of bottle age. I haven't tried Cena II. In general these wines benefit from a lot of aeration and do tend to expand, but I can't remember this one in particular. Cheers. RichardA, Well you cannot beat the opportunity to taste them. As I said some of them really show best with a good bit of air. Enjoy and I hope you post some notes.
  3. I've tried more than a few of these wines and can recommend them. Abe is using natural winemaking, low to zero sulphur, generally zero racking, not trying to create fruit oriented/dominated wines. He is definitely not making wines in the same fashion as the "crowd". You may find something you love and some that you hate. High risk/reward. If there is a specific wine you are interested in, I may have tasted it....if so happy to provide my thoughts. These wines are not for everyone.
