Took 30’ to get good started slow then developed black cherry and even a hint of current 2015 vintage — 6 years ago

Founded in 1982, Roederer Estate sparkling wines reflect the cool, fog-shrouded Anderson Valley, home to their family-owned estate's 600 acres of vineyards. Tiny bubbles, nice mousse with toasty fruit aromas for this blend of 52% Chardonnay & 48% Pinot Noir. Flavors of apple and nutty pear, biscuit notes, creamy, great mouthfeel. Lingering finish ending with spicy mineral notes. Smooth and crisp! — 8 years ago

Established in 1969, in Carneros in Napa Valley, cooled by fog from the San Pablo Bay. Ruby with red fruit aromas and floral scents. On the palate raspberry and strawberry fruit with baking spice and woody notes. Savory tannins, smooth and refreshing on lingering ending. Very nice. — 8 years ago

A very different take on Nebbiolo, bags of fruit and unlike its Italian counterparts. Maybe not as long lived but very consumer friendly style that doesn't need too much bottle age or food to be enjoyable. — 8 years ago

Loved this Sav Blanc. No acidity. Pear and subtle minerals -mellow-almost like a good Chardonnay. Drank it with the growers,Tom and Brenda; amongst the grapes on the hillside outside Calistoga. Just fabulous. — 9 years ago

This yellow-gold wine rings the “old-style Cali” bell in all the right ways. A nose of apricots, mangoes and apples is helped along with the smell of buttered popcorn. Oak treats the palate as well, draping over the tropical fruit like a sunshade. The acidity is zesty, yet the mouthfeel tends toward creaminess due to the wine sitting on the lees for five months. The oak is a definite part of the wine, but the effect is softened enough so that it's a pleasure, not a pain. — 6 years ago

This was the real reason a midweek lunch date was needed! Wow. Being above the fog line in Napa pays off for Tim Mondavi. More sun and warm weather produced a ripe dark black current and kirsch flavor with smooth voluptuous tannin. Ready now. — 8 years ago

2nd time after 3 years of waiting - decanted two hours - I am not Rocky but if I was I would say "Yo Adrian" this is great - Give this wine a little time in the decanter and I promise you will have Smiles - a bit of breathing softens it and it is damn good- rich black fruit - great smell - it is ready to drink now and improved from three years ago - so if you got it - drink it now and promise you will smile — 9 years ago
