Turley

Duarte Vineyard Zinfandel 2009

Love Turley zin. This was holding up great. Very smooth and sweet harmony of red fruit and spices. It was medium-light bodied and the tannins were soft. — 9 years ago

Very solid. Lots of cherry fruit. Big and less Burgundian than I expected. Still fun. — 11 years ago

Te Mata Estate

Bullnose Hawkes Bay Syrah 2012

Black pepper aromas. Lots of acidity, mild tannins in the finish. Went nicely with pasta & meatballs. Could use a few more years of bottle age. — 12 years ago

Ernie, the genie, prepared the entire 5+ course meal for 18 guests and convinced all of us that South African Pinot can taste like premium Burgundy! — 13 years ago

Bonny Doon Vineyard

Le Cigare Volant Réserve en Bonbonne Red Rhone Blend 2009

A #magnummonday find at Nopa, this showed an awesomely expressive nose of crunchy red and dark berries and fresh flowers but also tons of delicious savoriness--black pepper, cinnamon, and savory potpourri. The palate was fresh with lots of fine tannins and plenty of lift to bring it all together. With food an awesome cranberry jam note emerged. Southern Rhone blend roughly equal parts Syrah, Grenache, Mourvèdre, and Counoise. — 11 years ago
