This is the 2nd bottle from the initial tranche from Cameron Hughes En Primeur approach. Thus far, if you double decant you start to see the evolution of fruit. This guy kept showing new layers over time. Can’t wait to try a few more down the road. High QPR. — 4 years ago

The first year vintage. A special treat during our tasting. A great year was showing its peacock colors. Continued to evolve as the tasting wore on. Soften tannins, but fruit stool was lively and present. — 4 years ago

Another favorite Tuesday night wine that delivers a nice QPR Tempranillo from Paso. Winery is in San Luis Obispo, CA. Owner/winemaker is all about Spanish varietals. — 4 years ago

Schweiger’s top shelf Cab is worthy. Hedonistic mouth feel and finish. Stands up to any Spring Mountain Cab. Is perfect for a grilled ribeye. — 4 years ago

Black Kite has been a consistent Pinot producer over the years. They really hit it out of the park with this SLH beauty. Nice strawberry, with that caramel and vanilla streak to balance the tart fruit. Yum. — 4 years ago

A great discovery in Avila Beach (Central Coast, CA). This is a San Luis Obispo country fruit that that behaves like a lush SLH Pinot vibrant. Big strawberry. — 4 years ago

Bias alert. We love this Pinot. The style and secret vineyards add to the quality. Prime grapes from two distinctive vineyards produces a big red fruit, with layered nuances of butterscotch throughout. — 4 years ago

9.7

Another special gem from Oakville. Rudd produces some stellar wines and this Samantha is a shining example of a Cab that is coming into its own. Still would improve on the shelf for another 10+ years. — 4 years ago
