Antle Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013

Nose is cherry pie, strawberry and cranberry. On the palate is more strawberry and cranberry with clove and cinnamon overlaying an earthy mineral backbone. It drops off slightly in the finish, but this is a well rounded, medium bodied Pinot with excellent bang for the buck. — 7 years ago

Estate Grown Chalone Chenin Blanc 2014

9.4

Surprise favorite of a Chenin blanc tasting, haven't had a current vintage Chalone wine in years, not since working for Acacia when it was still owned by Chalone. This wine had killer acid, varietal character, just enough richness. Can imagine this wine is a favorite of the production team at the winery--often these tiny production side wines are the most individual and exciting, less pressure and expectations. (I need to try the other Chalone wines and see what they are doing these days.) — 7 years ago

Estate Bottled Chalone Chardonnay 2014

Smoked citrus and crushed rock on the nose. Underripe fruit, limestone and wood on the palate that comes across with great balance. High quality wine given the price point. — 6 years ago

Reserve Estate Bottled Chalone Pinot Noir 1982

1982. Beety, bloody, powerful (but not heavy). Wonderful pinot noir. Chalone pinots from this period are California classics. — 7 years ago

This would make a confusing ringer in a Pommard tasting. I loved the beet and chanterelle savor and the great black cherry fruit in the still vibrant 35 year old! The tannin and acid balance was perfect and fantastic with our pork!

Light on it's feet, it's easy to quaff this wine. I expected a grittier wine but the Mourvèdre was well integrated and added some body to the blend. — 8 years ago
