Russian River Valley Syrah

Savory and a bit of funk. Might have guessed Rocks District on p&p if blind. — 2 months ago

Wind Storm

Old Vine Lodi Zinfandel 2015

This is a great version of a California Zin. Nice notes of spice and pairs so well with a red meat meal. Found this on sale and will go get more while I can. Love the label and the cork. I am under a thunderstorm warning and this is so nice to watch the clouds rolling. Get some. — 4 years ago

Sonoma Coast Syrah

Just an incredible 14 year old #syrah from Wind Gap that’s just screaming Crozes-Hermitage or Cornas in the glass. Cured meat, bacon fat, black olive followed by a deep well of brooding black fruit aromas. Palate is fresh with salivating acidity, aged fruit, coffee, dark chocolate and ethereal tannins on a long finish. Beautiful wine, especially for $53 for 6 bottles at WineBid (before shipping.)

Luna Matta & Glen Rose Vineyards Nebbiolo 2006

My last bottle from the defunct yet memorable winery.

Smells so delicious, like a fruit yogurt

This drinks like it is fresh, with blackberry bramble, subtle and unique red fruits tucked behind the leather ones.
Tannins are still very gripping, and the acidity tames it back. A touch of heat and its off to the races!

Luna Matta Nebbiolo 2006

Every time I drink, I'm amazed that I got several of these at $9. For being 15 years old, this is drinking beautifully. Elegant and smooth. — 5 years ago

Woodruff Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014

Tasting great right now. Olives and prosciutto on the nose and initial palate. Good amount of fruit, tart cherry, pomegranate, some citrus, earth, forest. Outstanding with a vegetable pesto soup. Drink it soon! — 3 years ago

Nellessen Vineyard Syrah 2016

Outrageously loud nose. Green peppercorn, spicy beef jerky, powdered rock dust, tangy red berries behind all that. Balanced and full of flavor, there’s nice acidity lifting flavors of crushed rocky minerals. There is something like dried red berries - almost Christmas-spiced- that turn savory as the finish progresses. Tannins almost fully resolved and soft. Fascinating. — 4 years ago

Sceales Vineyard Old Vine Grenache

Seventy-five plus year vines make me happy. Plenty of acidity balanced by lean, yet round, tannins. Savory raspberries and cherries with rhubarb and a little bay leaf. Yum! — 5 years ago
