Willamette Valley Pinot Gris 2018

Delicious, medium finish, slightly acidic yet slightly buttery. Bright. Pairs well with nearly anything. Great for summer sipping. Paired nicely with souvlaki and tzatziki with lemon rice. — 6 years ago

l'Opale de la Presqu'ile de Saint-Tropez Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend 2015

The kind of dry but still interesting rose that comes in a bucket with five more bottles of the same on a beach in the south of France. I’m a fan. — 7 years ago

Château Lynch-Moussas

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend 2011

What a great wine, nose full of black berries and plums by the bucket load. Soft tannins and that balance that I crave and a finish that lasts forever. Need to buy some! — 7 years ago

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

La Tâche Pinot Noir 2010

Splurge night! What the heck? La Tache by the ounce. Why not. I can now say I have tried it. Not sure how to describe and rate this wine. On the one hand I know the pedigree. On the other hand I know my palate and what I like. I think the wine has some great character but I find the acidity to be well beyond what I like in a wine. The minerality and earthiness comes across well before the fruit. Not sure that is the order I like. I know I will never buy a bottle of this wine but I have always wanted to taste it. Check off that item from my bucket list. — 8 years ago

Dogfish Head Brewery

Romantic Chemistry IPA

I don't often drink a glass of beer but my husband does so I taste a lot of different kinds. I took a sip of this one and said, " i love it, pour me my own glass!" Well balanced, and I do not typically like mango flavor, this harmony is one worth trying. — 10 years ago

Les Cadrans de Lassegue

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2008

Tastes amazing like smooth juice - I could drink this by the bucket. Amazing 2008 wine — 6 years ago

Moris Farms

Morellino di Scansano Sangiovese Blend 2016

€16 on the restaurant wine list for a Sangiovese, Merlot and Syrah blend. At one of the nicest restaurant in San Quirico D’Orcia, a small commune in the Tuscan hills, but weren’t impressed with our food selections. Wine was pleasant but not a lot of depth. Served from their cabinet above the refrigerators, so we needed to cool it off a few degrees in an ice bucket. — 7 years ago

9.1

Second red wine at Table #4 at Oakton Wine Shops Bucket List Tasting.

Deep ruby red with a touch of garnet. Mute nose to start but still tight with barnyard and meaty undertones. Some dark berries, and perfume. Medium plus tannins (6.5/10) with a rich palate. Dark berries, gravel, spices and twigs. Full bodied with a long and dry finish. Drink till 2028. (91+)

Roots Run Deep Winery

Educated Guess Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

A very enjoyable wine with crackers and cheese. Seems like it would work for any occasion. I appreciate the chemistry drawings on the label. — 10 years ago

Quinta de Carapeços

Vinho Verde Rosé Espadeiro 2017

There is a sweet grapefruit acid high richness. As it was with many of the Carapeços wines I kept accidentally (by which I mean on purpose) skipping the spit bucket. Too good. — 7 years ago

Les Denisottes Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2015

Getting some air, and warming up from a rest in the ice bucket...

I love how this bottle is developing!
Nose is full on yellow peach, fresh cut grass, mineral dust and a new aroma, crushed celery leaf, interesting...
Palate has fading acidy 😊, fresh peach and lemongrass, still fresh and lively with a medium length finish.
We have a few bottles left, looking forward to seeing how this continues to evolve over the next 4-5 years.
