Sine Qua Non

Trouver l'Arène Syrah

Finally landed one of these beauties and the wine did not disappoint. Big and bold and expressive. Got better over the evening and paired up nicely with a tenderloin. Have to say though, it wasn’t spectacularly better than Central Coast Syrahs I’ve had from Saxum, TH Vineyards, Epoch or Law. Not saying I won’t seek out another one but I am feeling good about my cellar. I get though that there is not a direct linear ratio between cost and quality and sometimes an incremental but important change comes at a price. Having said all this, the wine is great and the makers are to be celebrated. I really admire what they do. — 5 years ago

Paderewski Paso Robles Zinfandel

Great bottle of Zin from a outstanding winery. Great mouth feel with longer finish. Great red berries on the nose and pallet. A little too acidic. But all in all a lovely drinking Zin — 7 years ago

Paderewski Vineyard Tempranillo 2014

Seriously,
Diet starts tomorrow, not only is it Monday its also the 1st day of the month. Can’t beat that starting date!
Not as big & bold as the Reserva Tempranillo. But it will do for Carls & Reaper bbq sauce 🔥🌶😋
Tomorrow doesn’t officially start till I wake up, so it’s going to be a long night

Considering I haven’t exercised in 3 months because of blown disc, I have about 20 extra I could lose,
@Ellen Clifford its Reaper bbq sauce, can’t get any hotter, so I suggest a couple bottles of cheap chard to wash it down

Gratitude Vinegrove Vineyard Old Vine Grenache 2018

My last Gratitude, so now I’m bitter🥴

In the spring of 2018, our Winemaker, Jordan Fiorentini, headed Down Under to work a harvest in Barossa Valley, Australia with one of Bill Armstrong’s good wine buddies, Michael Twelftree of Two Hands Wines. During Jordan’s visit, the two bonded over their love of Grenache, and thus, worked together to create a wine from some stunning 70-year-old Grenache vines in the area. The 50% whole cluster fermentation took place in Barossa, but the resulting wine made its way back to Paso Robles to do its barrel-aging and bottling in our winery. This collaboration between two countries is the perfect way to say thank you to doctors, nurses, & volunteers who serve on the front lines during this global pandemic.

$40 a bottle; all proceeds go to Doctors Without Borders

@Epoch Estate Wines nails it. Singing Grenache. Big florals on the nose. Crushed raspberries. The mouthfeel drives a long finish with higher acidity. Macerated raspberries and hints of eucalyptus. Just awesome juice — 6 years ago

9.0

This is a first release for d'Arenberg "The Antropeocence Epoch." Hopefully, Delectable will correct. It's made from the Mencia grape. The nose reveals; blackberries, black cherries, black cherries, sweet tar and dry dark florals and espresso roast. M+ tannins, black cherries, blackberries, expresso, caramel, mocha, tough leather, soft spice-box, wood shavings, red roses, crushed dry rocks with good acidity but vey dry tannins at this young stage. Photos show the entrance to their restaurant and their tasting area in the cellar where we tasted. — 9 years ago
