Alion Ribera del Duero Tinto Fino 2019
2019 vintage. Opened and decanted. Tasted after 15 minutes and one hour. Medium body. Sleek and silky intro and mid-palate funneling much of the concentration and carnival into the back-end impressions. Picked up the various chocolates, earth. tobacco and cedar notes just before graduation. Obviously much much too premature but showing serious promise and composure after the first recital. 5.22.26. — a day ago

Ponzi Vineyards
Reserve Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 1991
1991 vintage. Last tasted 4.22.26 (8.4). It was quite the saga then with a triple-decker self-loathing, regret and sorrow sandwich. This visit...bottle #2 of 3. Opened with a Durand. Cork 25% saturated. Color a ridiculous, majestic purple. Decanted and tasted after 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 45 minutes and one hour. Decent sed vacillating between powdery and Dippin' Dots sized. Gamey, smoky, meaty Côte-Rôtie-styled rhythm guitar nose that definitely rolled over into the flavors. The lead guitar went on an extended rhubarb, cranberry and boysenberry solo. Fascinating wine and will open the last bottle in exactly a month. We can't wait for June. We're on surfari to stay. 5.22.26. — a day ago

Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
2023 vintage. Last tasted 2.6.26 (9.2) and 10.8.25 (9.1). $28.77 a bottle resto cost including that CA CRV. Picked up another case (now have 48 bottles double-parked) and still trying to get it on the list. Personally failing to do so...spectacularly. A bit of something for everyone tho. Drinking fab now and could hit it in 2-3 years if you're backlogged with cellar dweller decisions. Wouldn't hold off on crushing this past 2029. 5.22.26. — a day ago
