Nov 3, 2018. Dinner w/ Jack D, KK, and J2, to celebrate car deal. 😁 Purchased 2 bottles at TTW special wine club tasting, deeply discounted, drink now price. Smooth tannins, yummy CDP, retaining earthiness and some spice. Drank both bottles. 😳 — 8 years ago

What a difference a day makes. Scored this wine an incredible 9.5 three years ago. Now I can only give it a 8.9 at best. I couldn’t get over the oak that kept overruling any kind of fruit that I think was hiding somewhere. After 3 hours of decanting it gained a bit more complexity but still far off the previous mark. — 8 years ago

Reds are hit or miss from upstate New York. This one was pretty good after it aired a bit. Nice berry hints, not too tanic, a bit earthy. I still prefer whites from this winery but this red passed the test. — 5 years ago

Nose has grilled lemons, lemon buttercream, lime zest, distant brown butter, orange zest, dried apricot and (minor) struck flint.

Palate has dried lemon peel, pineapple core, buttercream, toasted walnuts, warm banana with faint sweetness on the very long finish with medium acidity. A great wine, decanted 4H and will appreciate at least another 3-4H of opening. Future bottles may be 2024-26+. Very good now, maybe one of the best FLX Chardonnay's I've experienced.

Partial Appassimento method for a portion of the grapes, really yields some extra character and depth to the wine. Only guy doing this in the FLX, Morten Hallgren, to the best of my knowledge. I'm coming to the altar here, it's the right way to handle his Chardonnay style. 👍

$24 direct from the winery cellar, to our cellar, to our glasses tonight. Being in the wine club has good benefits. 👌 — 6 years ago

3 weeks before we move to London! 30 minute decant. Dark purple color. Nose is medium but complex. Italian meats, French oak, and something I can't put my finger on; but it's flowery with perfume. Drinking awesome right now! Wine is like velvet and very complex. More French like than a Napa powerhouse Cab. Bing cherry, cough medicine, and a little cinnamon. Medium finish. Absolutely love it!!! Wish they all could be like Randy and Mike! Glad I have 2 more bottles! Odds of scoring a bottle in London = 1-165, as they don't let us ship alcohol. — 8 years ago

Someone needs to correct the name on this app and I can’t ever get anyone to respond, but...this Cab was fantastic and got better after being opened for an hour or two. Dark fruit and good tannins. — 6 years ago

Monthly WTF guys blind tasting group. This month was our annual, and famed, Left Bank vs Right Bank theme. All wines served blind as usual. Started off with a Rosé and a champagne. Great night.

This is in a good spot now, but will benefit from another 3-5years. A little modern in style as it seems Napa cab-esque...baked fruit spectrum (red, blue and black), graphite, and baking spices on the nose with herbal notes and bay leaf on the palate. I called this ‘12 Left Bank. Thanks @Jack Thompson . — 7 years ago

Nice heads up Rishi!
Smooth and fruity. Med. tannins, but my jowls say bold. Bright berries and plums with a lasting finish. Bonus, my wife loves it.

This is money people. I dare you to taste side by side with Willamette. Barnyard prominent nose with red fruit background and very tarragon, red blossom floral component. On the palette firm tannins a little tight actually finish will improve with 2-3 in the cellar not much more. Great with barBq plate. Acid, tannin balance is solid but again in 2-3 look out. Great effort here. — 10 years ago
