Excellent chenin from Cali that is very true to the grape, citrus fruits and zest, florals, chipped rock minerality, and the telltale lanolin that classic chenin will usually have. Great acidity, med/med+, nose and med+ palate and finish. Top domestic chenin! — 2 years ago
Excellent Merlot with dark Cherry boysenberry vanilla and oak notes. Great pairing with a ribeye off the grill. Decanted for one hour. — 4 years ago
Loving this rich, decadent example. Lots of cellaring runway ahead.
Renovation update - 2nd flight of stairs in, and lighting is complete. Officially, we are bankrupt 😔 — 5 years ago
One of our favorites from the Loire. Purchased (many times) from La Reserve wine shop. — 7 years ago
A split rating between Lesley and Harry. Light tannins but slightly peppery very smooth across the palette…yummy! Especially sitting next to the Raspberry patch and eating my best burgers ever and broccoli harvested moments before cooking. TBD - s’mores are next on the agenda. Wish you were here!! — 10 months ago

5/2024. Very nice blend. Full of flavor. Sits well on the palate. Good finish. Paired well with the grilled bone in pork chop at Mr. Friendly’s. — a year ago
My father has a case of these 1983 BV in his father’s wine collection. Have sat undisturbed for a few decades since my grandfather passed. Opened this for Easter dinner if braised lamb shanks. Had some cork breakage but decanted and let it breathe… it was quite delicious! Looking forward to drinking the rest of his collection! — 3 years ago
Grapey and somewhat lacking in complexity/tannins. Tried it against a 2018 b cellars merlot and it didn’t match up well. — 4 years ago
Nose - pineapple, lemon zest, vanilla. Taste - citrus fruit and great vanilla flavor, little bit of caramel. Full bodied, with a good balance. Really good! — 4 years ago
