Carneros Pinot Noir 2012

I am loving the colors..beautiful ruby red fades into some bricking leading to a clear rim.
Excited to find a 10 year Pinot at my local grocery wine dept! 🤙 Cork was bit of a challenge, surprisingly no sediment.
Nothing to jump up & down about but I am enjoying where this wine is ...in it's evolution. Favors a chill, presents w/ baking spices (cardamom) vanilla and raspberry preserve.

Finca Altamira La Consulta Mendoza Malbec 2003

We recently pulled some cases out of storage, which haven't seen the light of day for nearly 15 years, so I'll have some fun posts in the next several months.

Nose has split oak firewood (barely seasoned), cigar box, moist cedar shavings, blackberry, dried black currant, dried roses, fresh violets, moist leather, dried lavender dark chocolate powder and graphite pencil shavings.

Palate has chocolate covered blackberry, tarry black cherry, cedar sawdust, dark chocolate bark, prune, anise candy, clay pot and leather. Very long finish, subtle tannins exist still, amazing wine!

Cork pulled, 2h rest, then decanted 6h, a perfect bottle, still young, future bottles may be 2023-30, without concern.

100% Malbec (715 cases) | Wine Spectator Top 100: 2005, Rank: 31

Perfect pair to homemade burgers from a local farmer in Columbia Co. NY (Kinderhook Farm), cooked to a beautiful medium-rare served on toasted brioche burger rolls.

Sonoma County Blanc de Blancs 2002

This is a particularly unique bottle. Vintage with 6yrs before disgorgement! Now, 20 yr in. A pallet of wine that had been forgotten about, found, disgorged and given only to staff…the big structure has helped it age well. Small bubbles. Apricot syrup. Toasted macadamia. — 4 years ago

Late Disgorged Carneros Brut Blanc de Blancs 2017

Sabred this lovely bottle! Love the Blanc de Blanca from #GloriaFerrer . Crisp and refreshing but still textured with tight bubbles. Citrus is balanced with brioche notes.

Finca Bella Vista Mendoza Malbec 2014

Awesome Malbec from 100 year old vines in the Lujan de Cuyo region. Vibrant and ‘in your your face’ dark red cherry fruit with strong earthy mineral presence and green leafy herbal notes that was in balance with the wine and gave it interesting complexity. — 6 years ago

Delicious, all brioche and delight. Perhaps a touch sweet for my taste, but then I like ‘em beyond bone dry. Will be getting more and stashing it away. — 9 years ago

Finca Mirador Mendoza Malbec 2013

Wild violet, roses and black fruit aromas. Medium to high acidity, that makes this wine very interesting 7 years after the vintage. Wonderful persistance, with a wild strawberry and cassis aftertaste. At a very good moment to drink. I truely believe that the best south american wines should be consumed between 5 and 7 years after the "cosecha". — 6 years ago
