Moscato d'Asti 2016

A beautifully balanced example of Moscato d'Asti. Off-dry and definitely less sweet than many, this wine emphasizes the appeallingly herbaceous side of Moscato. Orange blossom, clover, honey, acacia and a hint of hay give this real appeal. Terrific as an aperitif with salumi or in Piemonte tradition, with hazelnut cake for dessert — 8 years ago

Carlotta Cellars

Santa Cruz Mountains Merlot 2013

A no-sulfur merlot from Aran. Medium plus ruby to a red rim. Complex, well-integrated, and quite developed nose of ripe to overripe plum, milk chocolate, dark chocolate, bruised apple skins (suggestions of acetaldehyde/oxidation), stewed/browned tomatoes, and hints of sweet tobacco, robitussin / cough syrup, and a fair bit of toasty, nutmeggy new oak. Medium plus bodied, with elevated alcohol (13.2%, seems a bit higher), diminished acid, and a light dusting of tannins. This is delicious. I'm fan of this, though I understand why some of my friends didn't like it. It tastes weirdly advanced for a 2013. If blinded, I might guess it's a 2005, save for the color. But the flavors are fresh and the varietal character is there. — 10 years ago

Tao Moscato

Extraordinary! Don't underestimate Moscato when it is left alone in a barrel under the stairs in the vineyard cellar for 20 years. Might of guessed sherry, or rancio, truly unique. — 9 years ago
