Roussanne 2012

Late outside picnic wine. Orchard fruits on the nose, tendrils of seductive dusky weight. It could've aged, but 'twas a delight for brunch outside — 11 years ago

Found this gem at Laurel Hood's marvelous little wine shop on Cannon Beach, a spot worth hunting down!

Lambency

White Blend 2010

Damn delicious. Balanced--no certain notes stand out (fruit, leather, armpits) which sounds boring but is happy-making and mellow. — 12 years ago

Casanuova delle Cerbaie

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2006

Dry Grown Barossa Shiraz 2010

Always learning! This wine has a good story. The dry grown process sounds like smart business because it produces a very full bodied and very tasty vino. Alas this was brought to us from Australia by hand. — 12 years ago

Wonderful dessert wine! Sounds strange with the chocolate, but it is wonderful! — 12 years ago

La Scolca

White Label Bianco Secco Gavi Cortese

Highly floral and mineral, like white rose candy. Except super dry and less grandma-y than that sounds. — 10 years ago

Sonoma Coast Vineyards

SCV Laguna Vista Vineyards Sur Lees Selection Sauvignon Blanc 2012

Smells both herbal and fruity, tastes like a fruity/citrusy sauvignon with the slightest saline after-taste. Maybe that sounds gross but I really like this one. Dry and acidic without being overly so. — 10 years ago

Château Domeyne

Château Domeyne St. Estèphe 2010

60/40 Merlot-cab. Dense, dark and heavy, but velvet like the curtain on the Devil's theatre. Licorice, tobacco, black and blue berries, with a tart Kool-aid grapey-ness, that sounds cheap, but this is rib-stickingly tannic fruit sand slide stuff, and really just a symptom of drinking this wine young. I am unapologetic, I like precocious young wines. I drank the Kool-aid, and am now a believer. — 12 years ago
