Christo Lot Number 1 Syrah Blend

I was skeptical at first...inky black and 15.3 ABV, but the wine is well balanced with plenty of freshness and lift. Just the ticket with tonight's daube de boeuf. — 10 years ago

Heart Arrow Ranch Les Enfants Terribles Zinfandel 2015

First vintage bottled under the new Eagle Peak AVA. Already drinking fantastic out of the bottle with a perfectly perfumed nose and a texture that tells you stems were involved during fermentation. About 15% carbonic maceration on this vintage. — 10 years ago

Porter Creek

Old Vine Mendocino County Carignane 2012

Opened up with supper expressive aromatics of red bramble fruit with a hint of stoniness. Juicy and open. A little grippy on the back. Another couple years and this should be hitting its stride. Always love this wine. Great value. Definitely a producer that should be better know, but is gladly sub rosa. — 10 years ago

Sirius Eaglepoint Ranch Petite Sirah 2003

Smells blue, like the color of a washed blueberry. Balances huge power and blue fruit with a clean cut. Not gloppy at all. — 11 years ago
