Double J Ranch

Schrader Cellars

RBS Beckstoffer To Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

This is so nugget worthy,
Double shift for 10 days straight has brought me to my knees,.
The buffalo sauce seems to over power the wine, I suggest the habanero ranch as the better alternative, bbq sauce is just for kids

@Martin G Rivard @Shawn G. Rose @Paul T I did the 14 allocation but no more as I agree you can purchase at prices lower than release - com'on Schrader!

Interesting that we all have the same view.

Waters Ranch Petit Verdot 2012

I am a "Reds!" Pahlmeyer wine club member and these bottles are the reason why. If someone asked me about Petit Verdot, I would say its a blending variety. I like it in their Proprietary Red and wines like J. Phelps Insignia. But a single vineyard variety release? I have no idea what to expect. What a bottle! The jammy forward fruit is massive like a Shiraz, but you don't need a steak to drink it. Sweet, but elegant. It has a refined balanced finish that leaves you asking for another sip.

9.0

Unfortunately, somewhat closed at this point, even after a double decant. On the nose, hints of olives and spice. Missing the violets I want from a S-J. In the mouth, dark fruit and black olives. Medium-long finish. Needs time, but may not flesh out to what I would like it to be. Bought at the winery in France circa 2006. — 9 years ago

Great wine. I haven't had it in years.

Blackjack Ranch

Double-Down Syrah 2005

Picked up a case of the 2005 on a Sideways movie tour in 06. Cool rustic wine tasting room. Santa Barbara County is almost as much fun as Napa and Sonoma. Last one and drinking exceptionally well. Complex nose of dark fruit, licorice, barbecued ham. Similar on the palate, really delicious. Cheers. — 10 years ago
