Lip-smacking tartness with nice fruit & texture from Dry Creek Valley Zin skins! Happy the '16 will be infused with Dashe grape skins! — 8 years ago
Really enjoyed this. Easy wine to drink - light and crisp with hints of honey. Would buy again. $16 at SD Wine Co. — 8 years ago
This is a great beer, but far as the Enjoy By series, does not compare to some of the others, Unfiltered was amazing, probably the best they have done, 4-20-16 was a close second, with 12 hops Stone does not need to add adjunct to their beers, just gets in the way, distracts from the true hop notes and flavors derived from the hops, leave that to the other breweries that are not so familiar with true hops, still a great beer — 8 years ago

One of the Spring selections from my Deep Sea membership. The "Red" is a Conway table wine, this iteration being a Rhône style with Syrah taking the majority share of the blend. The Conway Family estate grapes are grown on the central coast, Rancho Arroyo Grande. The Arroyo Grande AVA is a 16 mile long winding valley in San Luis Obispo that offers diverse microclimates yielding a great variety of viticultures. Head to the Santa Barbara Pier one of these Spring days and have a glass at the Deep Sea tasting room! ~$25 | #deepsea #conway #rhonestyle

On 12/10/16 at chestnut in Asheville here for the candlelight Biltmore tour. A wonderful soft full wine with a dark clear ruby color and dry crisp cherries! — 8 years ago
CVed 10/28/16. Darker Ruby color than the regular 80s. Nose of mature black fruits and currants and tobacco and leaves and earthiness. Very impressive. Excellent body of mature fruits and secondary flavors and earthiness and still a lot of tannins that are supple and integrated. Long finish of complex notes of Forest and late floral hints. Yum.

Miracle wine. Dry moscatel from Malaga. Wild elegant honeysuckle aromatics, tangy tangerine acid. Pair with sushi and Thai. $16!!!!! — 10 years ago
This is a crazy single vineyard field blend of mostly white grapes, about 15 total, mostly Pansa Blanca (xarel-lo) and Sumoll. One mile from the sea, old vines on granite, co-harvested and co-fermented in vat. The color is golden, but with only 12hrs skin contact it's not a true "orange" wine. Super refreshing with citrus and pear, saline/granite minerality and bracing acidity. Wow.

Recommended by Peter at Co-op Liquor store 16 Ave NW - very nice - somewhere between a good Pinot and Cabernet with classic French subtlety — 9 years ago
Beautiful cab. Smooth and silky. Perfectly balanced, soft tannins. Right after opening this wine is already great. Interesting side note 12/2/16: the Hill Wine Co went bankrupt, and Jeffry Hill has been arrested for fraud. He sold Napa valley ava wines that aren't from there. Just great. — 9 years ago

Jammy but with notes of cured meats. Love! $16. — 9 years ago
Blend of co-fermented 57% Cabernet, 27% Syrah and 16% Petit Verdot. Gorgeous nose, very dry. Not hot, but this 16.3% beast needs to be drunk on the cool side. Has a number of years of life ahead. — 10 years ago

I forgot I had this hidden away, hope it hasn't turned.
Only 14.5 abv not bad for a Zin, sometimes their over 16%, it's pretty smooth for being just out of the barrel. Parker 95+ & under $50.00 — 8 years ago
