Finca Decero

Remolinos Vineyard Malbec 2013

3500' elevation. My favorite of the three Malbecs. Rich, dark fruit, intertwines with mocha, violets, and caramel. A silky mouthfeel and a simply delicious factor put this over the top for the win. — 9 years ago

Core

Elevation Sensation Alta Mesa Red Rhone Blend 2008

82% Grenache • 18% Mourvèdre • This wine was aged for 42 months in a combination of 1 year old hogsheads, and 600 and 800 liter demi-muid. The wine was bottled without fining or filtration. It attacks the palate with amazing fruit, complexity, structure and concentration. — 11 years ago

Bricco delle Viole Barolo Nebbiolo 2012

Clearly the winner of day one, from a high-elevation hamlet in the commune of Barolo, this shows the "feminine" side of Barolo, and not at all lacking for guts or complexity — 9 years ago

Bodega Catena Zapata

High Mountain Vines Mendoza Malbec 2014

I received a selection of Catena wines following an interview with Dr. Laura Catena (to her credit, she's an amazing person and a part time ER doc). Her 2014 High Mountain Vines Cabernet displays glorious aromas of black currant, anise, mocha, exotic spice, and cedar. Medium weight, elevation has endowed this Argentine Cab with elegance and silkiness stitched against a backdrop of fine tannins and high acidity. It’s fresh and intense with a finish that flirts with saline-tipped minerality. — 9 years ago

Tenuta delle Terre Nere

Highest elevation and therefore acidity. Lovely dusty edged focused bright red fruit with a touch of pepper. — 9 years ago

David Arthur

Elevation 1147 Estate Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Just baked blueberry muffin with cinnamon on the nose. Beautiful flavors of tea leaf, blueberry, baking spice and a little mocha on the palate. An extremely complex wine from Pritchard Hill. The tannins are ultra-sleek with a fantastic finish. We get some earthiness throughout the entire tasting process which adds to its complexity. Would love to put a case of this back for a decade to see how it matures. Love it!
