I thought this sounded familiar! I’ve been here! Oakland winery! This is quite delicious and I’m glad it’s aged. I just paired it with my crockpot roast - yes. — 7 years ago
It was as my favorite simple and daily blend I would buy at La Part des Anges in Nice, cheap and easy, so happy I found it 10000kms away in Oakland at Ordinaire - less cheap but as good!! — 8 years ago

A little unbalanced acid and tannin wise. True #cabfranc aromas and better and less expensive than it’s bigger brother which gets lost in a fight with St. Emilion somewhere in between Loire and Oakland. #loirelovlies — 8 years ago

oh... Oh... OH... this just took a wrench to my hedonism dial. And it makes me wonder if Russell From tripped and accidentally dropped a jug of creme soda extract into the tank, and then said "fuck it... we're good."
I can imagine this is what it would have been like to be front row for AC/DC at Oakland Coliseum in July of 1979 (They released Highway to Hell the next week, and I was 11 days old). Only, you were listening to Wagner on headphones.
The undercurrent is deceptively strong, and distinctly Northern Rhone. Like snorting a violet flavored vitamin in a horse barn just before you dig into the charcuterie plate in front of you. I'm stopping, but this wine just keeps going.

A Passover Miracle! 2004 must’ve been a good year. K and E in Oakland. Fantastic. Deep but not Mariana deep. Sweet but not candy mountain sweet. — 4 years ago
