Hill Wine Company

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

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. — 10 years ago

Conway Family Wines

Deep Sea Red Central Coast Syrah Blend 2009

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 the eyes: Blood Red, Garnet Color, Med Opacity, Bright, Light Stain, Med Tears, No Gas/Floc.

On the nose: Vinuous, Cassis with Ripe Red Fruit, Oak notes, trailing into Baking Spices and Vanilla.

On the tongue: Med Acid, Med Alcohol, Med+ Tannin, Jammy Black Plum with Cassis, hints of Vanilla and Tobacco, Med Body with a Weak Structure and Complexity.

L'Aventure

Cuvée Coïncidence Paso Robles Red Blend 2004

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. — 12 years ago
