Waipara Valley Pinot Noir 2015

Fantastic, if understated Sauv Blanc from the preeminent Waipara area of NZ! Starts very calm, but opens to a. Beautiful bouquet of citrus, vanilla, even kiwi and breadfruits - first taste was underwhelming . . . but just wait for this to open!! — 9 years ago

Yakima Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

Light in color, wet leather and tiny curry and spice on the nose. Low tannins, very round and pleasant. Almost more Merlot like as opposed to a big Washington cab. Smooth and easy drinking delicious Cabernet. — 10 years ago

Ex Umbris Columbia Valley Syrah 2011

A beautiful example of Columbia Valley Syrah!! Big Dark brambly fruit with smokey black olive overtones. I keep coming back to this wine! I think it is better then what the “pros” rate it. (Average: 8.8). Outstanding and a great value. Paid $25. — 9 years ago

Cantina Bartolo Mascarello

Barolo Nebbiolo 2012

Tasting with Alan & Maria Teresa at Bartolo Mascarello. To see the cantina in person, to learn the history and hear how ferociously it's being preserved - I am grateful for every sip I've had. And particularly this one.
One of the parcels (Ruè) was pretty much decimated by hail in 2012, so it is a much smaller component of the blend than typical. A seriously elegant wine.

Crawford-Beck Vineyard Abbot's Table 2006

2006 Vintage one of the Best wines I have had. Been saving one bottle for a special occasion, and Thursday night had my wine drinking group. Having Drank other bottles of the 2006, I would say this was about 1 year beyond it's peak, but still exceptional compared to subsequent vintages of the same. — 11 years ago

Needs to be planted in the right terroir or forget it. In the USA WA and Finger Lakes have it.
