As soon as I write a blog post about why I'm not the biggest fan of Napa Cab I start finding a few I love. Coincidence? I think not. — 11 years ago

Santa Maria Valley Pinot Noir 2009

More burgundian than California in its execution, a sideways moment in which we loosen our embrace of the Sonoma Coast, and get our Mind Behind this masterpiece. You should also mind your behind. — 9 years ago

Viña Pomal Reserva Especial Haro-Rioja Tempranillo

1955. One of the best wines I've ever tasted. This is the 1955 vintage, so only my mom and dad are older than this wine, and it was everything I dreamed it would be. The nose was like the dead pine needles you step on in Vermont in the summer. I would wear this wine like cologne. Despite being 60 years old, it still had some tannins left in it, and it actually got better the longer it was open. I feel privileged to be in the same space this wine was opened.

Very easy. Not too strong or complex, but nice. And there are tannins. Hints of red fruit. — 11 years ago
