Luminoso Uco Valley Grenache Blend 2013

July 2020. GSM blend from Argentina. 67% Grenache, 14% Syrah, 19% Mourvèdre. So good. Black fruit, long finish, complex. Not a wimpy wine to be sure. I’ve loved everything I’ve tried so far from Revana Family Vineyards — Alexana Pinot, and the Soleado from Corazon del Sol. — 4 years ago

10th Anniversary Vintage Terroir Series Willamette Valley Chardonnay 2015

Unique and a definite object of interest at the table over dinner. Reminded me of the estate Riesling I had by them not too long ago; very off the grid. — 5 years ago

Revana Vineyard Black Label Pinot Noir

This wine needs to open up. At first I could taste smoke on the palate. But after a an hour the Pinot noir cherry flavor came through. I woul definitely try this again! — 6 years ago

Ysabel Carneros Pinot Noir 2042

This was actually chosen as the wine of the night by a few at our table. However, I must humbly disagree. I think the Alexana Had more going on with a very boisterous flavor profile. However, I would not kick this out of bed for eating crackers! LOL — 6 years ago

Gran Rouge Lonesome Spring Ranch Red Rhone Blend 2014

This a full bodied wine. Great with food. Subsequent blends post 2014 use more Grenache and less Syrah and I did like as much. Great with food — 6 years ago

Beautiful medium purplish ruby red. Lovely elegant nose with violets, strawberries, provenance herbs, and a light funkiness. Medium tannins (5.5/10) and medium plus acidity. Structure on the palate with mountain red fruits, white pepper, herbs, and red plums. Long finish. Drink till 2022. — 6 years ago

Barrel #138 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir

This was a private single barrel best barrel selection bottling. Only done for members. Absolutely, ridiculously, freaking good! This has it all going on and is a great representation of what the winery is all about. Opulence, spice, forest floor, Any depth of flavor on the back palate that was only matched by one other this evening. Truly a spectacular beast to say the least! I can’t even imagine how incredible this will be a few years from now. Winner winner chicken dinner! — 6 years ago

Kanzler Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

I have reviewed this one before. This is a pinot for someone who says that they don't like Pinot. If you give them this and they still don't like pinot, then they REALLY DON'T LIKE PINOT. Dusty rose pour. Dirty raspberry and minty front. Well-extracted front and middle. With many pinots I have noted, the wine really doesn't seem to come back around full-circle. This one drops you off at your front doorstep without you even having to look at it. Still blown away by this wine. Beat an Alexana single vineyard 2014 Pinot with LOTS TO SPARE. — 7 years ago

Barrel #18 Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2016

9.5

Good god! This is a spellbinding U.S. example. Subtle notes of cloves, cinnamon and redcurrants on the nose. Palate displays caramel, red and black fruits, and a hint of smoke. Tannins are integrated and support what is a lithe finish. Beautifully delineated now and should be consumed over the next 2 years. Santa @Martin G Rivard gifted to us what we consider this to be one of the best US pinots we’ve tasted. Thank you so much, bro 😍 — 6 years ago

Block 8 - Clone 777 Revana Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

12’ Alexana Revana Vineyard Block 8 . The very best five barrels each year. 11 months in barrel, additional 14 months in bottle before release.

A complete waste if you don’t decant this for two hours. Gorgeous color. Nose- Dried flowers & hint of spearmint. Palate- Dark raspberries, dark stone fruits, spices, black pepper. Touch of cola.
Moderate acidity. This would benefit with a little more age.
@Martin G Rivard Santa with another delivery to my door. Can’t thank you enough. Love you buddy!
