Medium body, black pepper accents, paired well with cheesy and saucy pasta. — 7 months ago

Lieu Dit

Santa Ynez Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2021

Combination of several vineyards aged in tank and neutral barrels, plenty of raciness and spritzy citrus personality but enough body to stand up to a meal — 10 months ago

Consistently good.

Central Coast Pinot Noir 2019

Lovely Pinot noir that’s more rustic and less fruity in taste than other Californian producers but it’s a good wine to enjoy on its own or with some nice roast ham.
Overtones do have some plum and light fruits so it will tickle those tastebuds.

Two Shepherds

Saarloos Vineyard Grenache Blanc 2030

Every time I drink a Two Shepherds wine I wish I had more in my cellar. A true “Rhône ranger” producing some of the best rhône-style wines in California. We all need to drink more Two Shepherds and support innovative winemakers who think about product quality before profit and ratings. Thanks to my dear friend Bruce for introducing me to Two Shepherds and supplying me! — 4 years ago

Didn't have too much of it because I was already a few sheets to the wine but it was lovely nonetheless. That's what happens when you don't eat all day and do a tasting and a wine dinner! — 9 years ago

Lorraine Syrah 2013

The color is a beautiful purple magenta. On the nose - blackberry-raspberry fruit, sandalwood, eucalyptus with notes of chocolate, licorice and vanilla. Wow what can you say! A rich, juicy and medium bodied smooth wine. Black fruits with blueberry dominate and just snaps from the glass blended with chocolate and licorice notes followed by a hints of bacon and espresso and a mineral black pepper long finish. You can drink this wine all night long!! — 2 years ago

Strawberry nose. Cooked strawberry in the glass. Low alcohol and classic California fruit. Fruit forward but well balanced with good acidity. A good one for a great price if you like this style. — 8 years ago
