Vinum Wine

For a Song Syrah 2015

Color of inky bubbly purple, with some ruby note. Nose of some oak, fresh grapes, spice, a bit cherry, quite average. Taste of raisin, fermented cabbage, oak, grape skins, a bit zest, and almost nonexistent tannins. Aftertaste of some more grape skins, a bit cocoa, and a bit earthy, definitely not a bold powerful Syrah. — 5 years ago

Gonzalez Byass

Vinum Optimum Rare Signature 30 Year Old Jerez Pedro Ximénez

Mahogany color with molasses, caramel, espresso, bittersweet chocolate and subtle baking spice aromas. On the palate it's full bodied, viscous, and very persistent with a supple mouth feel that's beautifully balanced with a penetrating acidity that keep it from being cloying and persistent with very good acidity that keeps it from being cloying and provides balance. It shows very sweet flavors of molasses, honey-dipped figs, dates, caramel, and baking spice nuanced citrus note with a kiss of oxidation that adds to its allure and complexity. Long finish — 8 years ago

Santa Lucia Highlands Chardonnay 2012

Superbly refreshing. A well made minimally oaked Chard that over delivers way above its price point. Unmistakenly Californian with its toasted oak notes. But it was the mouth feel that blows me away: tons of fresh tropical fruits - mango, papaya, pineapple. Probably the only Cali Chard I like this year! — 8 years ago
