Decent bottle of champagne by Scottish New Year standards......not quite a gravelly mouth feel but super-brutish. Some toast, lemon and decent acidity.....definitely quaffable according to the old man, who claims not to be drinking but it is one ahead of me... — 9 years ago

I'm not really into sweet wines, but this is an exception to the rules. Honey and pear notes without tasting like candy. Amazing with Fragua. — 10 years ago

I've had every vintage of this bottle from 2001 to 2008 (with the exception of 2002, which I'm not sure if they were able to produce). I've even sampled their 2010, which may rival their best vintages (1997, 2001, 2004, 2006). After an hour of decanting the deep cherry and blackberry fruit dominate this graceful glass. Sweet but not tart, the finish lingers with a subtle smile. By the vineyards standard, 2008 is a wonderful bottle. Cheers!! — 10 years ago

The Sweet Life is fast becoming a Martha's Vineyard fixture. A young couple run the place and put a twist in classic dishes, locally sourced. This means that the menu might not always be completely accurate but market driven changes are always appreciated. Vajra's Albe is always a delicious choice, especially for the price. The 2012 is no exception - light bodied, red fruit, rose petals and leather. It was the standout value on the list. — 8 years ago

Bright cherry colored in the glass. The nose explodes with cassis and blueberry jam, graphite and tobacco. There is no way you would ever know this was a 2011. EVER. This has a rich palate dominated by black fruit and cassis with a subtle mineral vein. Long finish. Great balance. Their wines are consistent and classic in style. I have had every vintage of this wine from their inaugural release in 1992 and with maybe (?) one exception have loved each one. If you have not yet tried a Seavey or visited them you should put them high on your list. Their Merlot is also insane. — 9 years ago

I am a fan of the cabs from Alexander Valley and this is no exception. This is earthy and smooth with subtle tannins and stands tall on its own with or without a culinary complement. — 10 years ago

I know there's an argument to be made for where the best Sauv Blanc comes from, but I truly love New Zealand. If you want pure tropical fruits and super crisp acidity, NZ can always be counted on. This bottle is no exception, and a bargain to boot. — 11 years ago

Over 30 years ago, Jack Cakebread came to photograph Napa for a book & bought a vineyard, Cakebread Cellars was born. I always liked Cakebread’s wine offerings, Chardonnay is no exception, consistent quality year/year. This was an early harvest showing aromas of green fruits, citrus & honey scents. On the palate complex flavors of apple, melon & lemon zest, balanced with good acidity & great mouthfeel. Lingering finish ending with sweet mineral spice. Nice now but a few years in cellar will benefit. — 8 years ago

I think it's hard to find a Chardonnay like this in the world so I stashed a bottle. It has the butterscotch fermentation element on the nose that says "California" which I love in steady doses. And it has the live, cold and ripe citrus acid element and that I find in Chablis. On top of that it's not very buttery, it has subtle minerality, stroke of vanilla.. there's a chance you drink this wine at the right day and time and can think it's a perfect 10 Chardonnay isn't in my wheelhouse of loves but this is an exception. For me tonight it's just missing... Peaches🍑 — 9 years ago

Some of the best Merlot I have tasted all come from Washington State. This is no exception. It is deep purple in the glass with a medium body. Some spice and a lingering finish. Excellent! — 10 years ago

I just loved this. This area owns Sangiovese quite obviously and this is no exception despite the price. Tastes like someone took a bunch of Brunellos and put em all together. Really noticeable and delightful oak. Highly recommend enjoying this. No food pairing, this is a sun's down back porch summer evening red. — 10 years ago

This is a 2013. Funky, fresh and exhilarating. I love South African wines and this is no exception. Charcuterie, rubber, blackberries and some savory herbs. Yeah, funky describes it ridiculously well. — 11 years ago
