Ceritas

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

Not as good as the bottle we had 2 years ago. All of the great lemon peel and minerality and texture and acid are still there - but this is oddly lacking on the mid palate, so you get a nice entry and exit but not a lot of meat in the middle. — 9 months ago

Well that's something you don't see everyday - a Sonoma County winery using Santa Cruz Mountain grapes for their Chardonnay

Bonny Doon Vineyard

A Proper Claret Santa Cruz County Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

Peppery, acid, lighter on the fruit. This would pair really well with chili or a similar dish — 8 years ago

Deep ruby color. Aromas of blueberry, leather and eucalyptus. Solid wine! Flavors of cherry, raspberry, cedar and pencil lead. Great vintage!

Vietti

Vigna Scarrone Barbera d'Alba 2021

Vintage 2021 | dark colour, blackberry, plum, hint of violets. A rounded taste with spice. Beautiful balance. I like this wine that is a bit arrogant and playing hard to get. — 7 months ago

Le Cigare Volant Réserve en Bonbonne Red Rhone Blend

39.97 from new season. Balanced. Round. Worth the price. Would buy again — 7 years ago

Ridge Vineyards

Monte Bello Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1985

Tried the '90 recently, spoke of how amazing a producer of Californian Cabernet it is, but just needed a little more time, this '85 is well & truly on point, everything is in balance, there's fruit intensity yes, but the development/complexity/layers are really shining through, outstanding stuff. — 9 years ago
