Dark red that hits with cherries and plum. A very long finish. Artisan like in its blending of cab and syrah. My new favorite — 10 years ago
Good Zinfandel. Fruit, balance on target. Great job of blending from multiple vineyards. Good buy for a Ridge zin. — 11 years ago

13' Epoch Estate White. Sourced from Paderewski Vineyard...which I love! Viognier 39%, Roussanne 9%, Grenache Blanc 52%.
I'm a very big fan of Paso whites. When I read about this recently, I had to try a few bottles.
Light pale in color. Grenache Blanc & Viognier... blending quite nicely. Absolutely get that ginger spice to that wine. I'm thinking Thai food right now😉. Definitely could set down for another 3/5 years. — 10 years ago
The corralejos are clean and well made. Not as sexy and layered as Patron or 1800 but an ideal premium blending tequila. — 11 years ago
Upfront acid blending beautifully with zesty fruit. @BodegasLaVal #Albariño — 11 years ago

The wine is easy drinking as the name suggest but it's a great wine with complexity it has a great dark fruits tannins in the mid palate very subdued the alcohol level is great nice flavor of mocha chocolate in the end again the blending is done in such a way that wine shows all the character of the grapes — 11 years ago
Every once in a while you taste a blend that reminds you why they started blending in the first place... — 12 years ago
09' Favia Cerro Sur Red. 60% Cabernet Franc, 40% Cabernet Sauvignon. The CF is done in all new oak.
Raspberry & floral notes on the nose. The front of my palate I'm getting an earthiness to it, with hints of coffee. Towards the front, more to the middle & back of my palate ...Raspberries, blackberries, black licorice, spices & oak. It's such an expressive wine, but not over top! 09 is drinking great now. What's even scarier is that the 2010 is slightly better. I'm sooooo looking forward to trying the 12/13's🙂. What he does with blending CF 😘.
I'm a very big fan of Andy Ericksons and his collection of wines. Is it just me… has his collection of wines gotten considerably better over the years?!? Can't imagine not receiving these gems several times a year. Hoping he's coming out with a Chardonnay in the upcoming years. (It might just be rumors) I'll cross my fingers anyway.

Well-knit and balanced, with vibrant acidity framing hints of blackberry, white cherry, biscuit, honey and candied lemon zest. Offers a lightly smoky finish.
A Champagne House is eventually judged on the quality of its Brut Non Vintage. It is in the making of such a wine that the true Art of Champagne blending reveals itself.
This is an art in which the House of Veuve Clicquot excels. Our Brut Yellow Label reflects the superb vineyards we own and the consistent nature of our House style.
The predominance of Pinot Noir provides the structure that is so typically Clicquot, while a touch of Pinot Meunier rounds out the blend. Chardonnay adds the elegance and finesse essential in a perfectly balanced wine. — 11 years ago
Right grapes
Right moment
I understand why Behrens distressed Andy Beckstoffer by blending just a little
80% Cab; 20% Merlot; 100% tasty — 11 years ago
The blending of cultivars has brought depth and refinement to this very pleasurable wine. — 12 years ago
Now this is a good wine. A few spicy notes and really soft tannins. Cab Sauv is the most prominent grape but the blending grapes (Tempranillo is one) do their part as well. — 12 years ago

12' Château Boswell Voyage. I've rated this one before. Love the wines. Very underrated winery. This is a blending of three different vineyards. Big full-bodied Chard. Edit- Better than six months ago. — 10 years ago
