Third Wheel Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Very beautiful wine. Great balance and acidity for a reasonable price. Dark fruit flavor with a bit of a floral and eucalyptus component. Big surprise!! Exceptional value from a Wine producing region that is growing in quality. — 9 years ago

Third Wheel

California Red Blend

It definitely needs to breathe a but but its good. Fruity without being too sweet. I drank it after a long work week and frankly it did the trick! Worth a try and a good wine to bring to a party of non/wine drinkers alike. — 11 years ago

Terroirs Viognier

Zero stuffing. No one is at the wheel of this brew. Precision cut by nature and unadulterated by opinion. Respect to the man who gets out of his own way. If you are interested in Condrieu I would suggest this as a starting point...she makes girls wearing even minimal amounts of make-up look trashy. — 11 years ago

Zeitgeist Cellars

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Not my wheel house. Bit excellent. Some structure. Balance. Fruit. Acid plays nicely. Yes. — 12 years ago

Clos René

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2010

A deep/dark ruby color in glass, a cornucopia of red//dark aromas escape easily from the glass...while it appears a bit of flamboyant initially after the first splash...stiff tannins remind you of its youthfulness and for those willing to wait another 7-10 years you'll be nicely rewarded! The finish was bit shorter than I would have liked, but still a solid enough performer overall to squirrel away for the future. — 12 years ago

I keep coming back to Hungary for some of my most solid wines of 2017. The overall texture, balance of ripeness and acid in this style seem to always hit right in my wheel house. This bottle's taken my favorite elements of a good Chenin Blanc and added touches of toasted sesame, white pepper, green fennel fronds to the palette. Continues to be my go-to pairing for roast chicken and after work aperitif. — 8 years ago

Blind smell, I'd guess a wheel of Brie. Cheese rind, faint fruit. Wow. Tastes like ...richness, oil, melon, tropical. The contrast between the nose and the taste is interesting. I love it. — 9 years ago

Steak & claret night is always better with friends! Thanks to super Dave and Gabby for coming over and drinking this magnum with us. This herbal, light bodied Cabernet was in my wheel house and a refreshing partner to NY steak, baked potato and grilled Caesar salad. I think I got a little carried away with it! — 10 years ago

Alfred Rothschild et Cie

Grand Reserve Brut Champagne Blend

Enjoyed this Champagne while sitting in the sun beside a pond in the gardens outside the Louvre. It was perfect for our picnic! Gently effervescent, beautiful to look at, faintest hint of apricot on the nose, lively mouthfeel, crisp acidity, dry minerality, short but pleasant finish. Went very well with sea salt potato chips, subtle and thinly sliced cured meats, herbed pickled green olives, and a mini wheel of chévre! — 10 years ago
