Monthly WTF wine group. Special event this month as Ben provided all ‘80s Napa cabs. A few of us chipped in and provided some whites/bubbly.
Toasted Graham cracker, cassis, and even some old cedar wood. Structure was still in tact and young tasting. — 7 years ago
Fantastic Cab Franc heavy blend. Ben knows how to work with CF. Actually surprisingly good with smoked bacon. — 8 years ago
Should have aged this wine for a decade. Forest and ocean mist, limestone quality to the tannin structure. Excellent wine. — 9 years ago
Tasted blind, friend thought French, Sancerre- the elegance is, but has a slightly viscous body ( which for me is more Viognier, but what do I know about Marsanne? ). Quite delicious, & subtle. Lemon grass, our Aussie adventures continue. About 20$. Good value. — 6 years ago
Oily and tropical. Usually not a fan of the Rhône whites but this was lovely — 6 years ago

Right out of the bottle faint post rain rock, moss, and leather first pour nose showing deep red front-mouth fruit with youthful tannins that will coax your tongue to the roof of your mouth and groovy acid slowing things down letting the moment linger, penetrate, and compliment the amazing meatballs served up by Ben Barker (of Magnolia Grill Durham) at his son's amazing new pizzeria, in Carrboro, NC (do not miss!!)
More on this wine soon, but @13% alcohol and low $s, it's good stuff for sure! — 9 years ago

Vino rojo-purpura con destellos violetas muy brillantes, en nariz resalta la ciruela negra antes de ser pasa y los frutos rojos, la pimienta, el romero, detectó cardamomo, hierbabuena y un poco de tostado, en boca muy aterciopelado (casi cosquilloso), taninos medios y chocolate negro (de los finos) y un final largo. Lo acompañe con un corte rib-eye prime grueso, espárragos, queso maduro y un jamón ibérico de bellota y todo marido delicioso — 6 years ago
¡Me encantó! Definitivamente una buena compra. — 7 years ago
