Hunnicutt

Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

This is the drift rows single vineyard cab (oakville 88 vineyard). Virtual tasting with Justin and Andrew. They made this different than the typical hunnicutt big and rich style. They picked a little earlier for a more ageworthy balanced wine. Nice minerality and dark cherry. 93-94+. Would like to see this in 10 years but you can drink it now with a decant. — 6 years ago

Citrusdal Mountain Chenin Blanc 2015

This is as mystical as the gorgeous flower on the label. Packed with fruit, with an oily texture, off dry but dry if you catch the drift. Simply thrilling. — 7 years ago

La Rioja Alta

Gran Reserva 904 Rioja Tempranillo Graciano 2007

The aromas from this wine drift across the room. Leather, tobacco, coffee, smooth red fruit. On the palate, great complexity with the same tone as the nose, with tobacco sticking around longer on the finish. Great wine. — 8 years ago

Drank at home with Daniel's parents. Really nice and floral, light and easy to drink — 6 years ago

Château La Castillonne

Red Bordeaux Blend

Not a great bordeaux but a great average bordeaux if you get my drift. Well balanced, not too acidic, pleasant tannins and none of that fruity nonsense that messes up a good claret. — 6 years ago

(Black Label) Old No. 7 Tennessee Sour Mash Whiskey 2019

Some days, you want something stronger than wine, and today has been well.......one of those days.

Old No.7 brand, since 1866, a sour mash whiskey favorite. Jack & Coke works for me.

Julian Haart

Schubertslay Kabinett Riesling 2016

I think it's apt for me to compare this to Daniel's 14' Wolfer Goldgrube Kabi I had a few days ago: It's lighter; ethereal. Less ripe; on the grapefruit spectrum. Doesn't really feature that power with restraint element I saw in Daniel's Kabi; perhaps a function of vintage. As racy and precise. Similarly mineral, although Julian's wine leans on the fruitier side; bottle age difference perhaps. Sulphur applied with more constraint in Julian's wine. Spicier; feature I notice in some of Julian's cuvees.

Overall, a stunning Kabi. Just the way I like it! Without a doubt, one that will improve with age.

Fat Tug IPA

After a day trying to keep up with a 7 year old biking along the Elk River my wife and I decided to stop at the Bridge Bistro and have a sandwich and adult beverage. This IPA"Fat Tug" from Drift Wood Brewery in Victoria, BC. Is in my humble opinion the "Gold Standard" for BC IPAs. 🇨🇦🍻 — 9 years ago

Luna Nuda

Vigneti delle Dolomiti Pinot Grigio 2015

The website claims that the wine tastes “the way Pinot Grigio used to taste before it became so popular.” That statement probably lost something in the translation from Italian, but I get their drift.
This Pinot Grigio is, in fact, “not your standard” stuff. The pale golden wine is aromatic enough, with a floral sensibility and a prominent overlay of minerals. A smoky character clouds those flowers and a basket of limes joins the aroma of wet rocks. The palate is pretty exciting, and I don’t have to qualify that statement with “for a Pinot Grigio.” It’s loaded with lemon and lime zest and strident acidity with a delicious salinity on the finish.

Alvi's Drift

Drift Fusion Reserve Cape Blend 2017

Vintage 2017 / Syrah from the Rhône, I chose when tasting blind. Syrah is in it, just like Petit Verdot, Pinotage but dominant is Cabernet Sauvignon. Tastes like Old World. Warm and comforting. Great p/q. South Africa often surprises me. — 6 years ago

Want to know what true Pinotage tastes like from one of the most stunning regions in South Africa? Complex nose and pallet that made me think on every sip. A wine not for the light hearted. — 7 years ago

Au Bon Climat

Hildegard Estate Bottled Santa Maria Valley White Blend 2013

Ok always a classic cali blend for me. Over the past ten years it's stayed true to its style. It's a big rich blend, but very harmonious on the palette. On the nose citrus and tropical fruit with brown sugar and river stone. The blanc and gris combine flavors to make a very strong Alsatian grand cru style blend. A lingering finish seems to Drift on and on with medium+ French oak treatment. Definitely a winner for the alt white section. The river stones really come back on the finish. Yum — 9 years ago

Tennessee Honey

I'm not a whiskey drinker, but when I do this is always my choice. The strength of whiskey is nicely balanced with honey, which you can definitely taste here! Perfect neat, or with ice or as a hot whiskey for cold weather. — 9 years ago
