Fifty Third Winery & Vineyard
Medlock Ames
Fifty Tons Cabernet Sauvignon 2013
Fresh tobacco leaf and gentle spice box on the nose. Full bodied and full tanic ride to a nice deep red fruit and earth finish. I like this wine a lot. — 8 years ago

Premier Grand Cru Classé Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2010
Unbelievable value third label Chateaux Margaux. Top year. Memorable Christmas! — 9 years ago
I Custodi
Ætneus Etna Rosso Nerello Blend 2008
The dimensions of this wine are huge, and I don't mean alcohol, acidity, or tannin, though it has fair bit of all three. There's a depth or a third dimension that only wines from special places have. The fruit is bright and the color pale, but the wine is dark in character. It's the character that Etna has - that rocky, ashy, old balsamic, dusky mountain herb, intense etnosity. — 10 years ago
Fifty Fifty Brewing Company
Eclipse Imperial Stout 2012
2012 Rebel Yell: Not as memorable as the bottle opened last year.
Dates, cold brew coffee, toffee and just enough oxidized character to be interesting, but still past its prime.
Rated as an average between samples. — 10 years ago
Domaine Léon Barral
Jadis Faugères Carignane Blend 2010
Had three bottles at dinner tonight with a group of friends. First bottle good, but tannic, perfumed, spicy. Second bottle has the same backbone but lots of dark fruits. Third bottle was near perfect blend of the first two. Had with Chateaubriand. — 10 years ago
Scarpetta
Timido Third Edition Spumante Rosé Colli Orientali del Friuli Rosé Blend
Fruit forward, small refreshing bubbles, and a bit of bread dough character! Would go with any food! — 11 years ago
Nugan Estate
Third Generation Shiraz 2011
Fruit forward, medium tannins, oak in the back ground. — 12 years ago
Beringer Vineyards
Third Century Howell Mountain Cabernet Franc 1996
I heard about this wine from a lot of old school buyers. It's living up to expectation and more. — 9 years ago
Thompson 31 Fifty
Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2013
Best new winery in Sonoma and taste as good as Kosta browns productions. Well priced and very are to find. Small production now will get bigger. It's my wife's favorite. — 9 years ago
Studio Seven Fifty
Benoit Touquette Toyon Farm Vineyard Chardonnay 2012
The Old Third Vineyard

The Third Man
Victoria Shiraz Cabernet Blend 2010
Aggressive fruity wine. — 12 years ago
Château Giscours
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2014
Located on a beautiful 300 hectare estate, the Giscours vineyard is located in the famous Margaux appellation and eventually included as a Third Growth in the 1855 classification. The young palate on this blend of Cabernet Sauvignon: 70%; Merlot: 20%; and Petit Verdot: 10%; shows ripe berry fruits with pronounced toasty oak notes. The tannins are smooth but needs development. The lingering complex finish shows potential over the next decade. Drink the 2012 if you want something now. — 8 years ago
Grand Rêve Vintners / Force Majeure
Ciel du Cheval Vineyard Collaboration Series VI Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013
Third red of the evening. Deep garnet red. Needs time, slight portiness and whiskey on the nose. Dark fruits and figs too. Tasted blind but reminded us straight away of the 2009 Force Majeure IV we had earlier last year. Moderate tannins (6/10) and full bodied. A little cherry liquor and dark cocoa on the palate. Long finish and the nose is a bit off-putting. This needs time to mellow out. — 8 years ago
Brygon Reserve
Third Wheel Reserve Cabernet Shiraz Merlot
Happy Friday — 9 years ago
Cherry Pie Wines
Stanly Ranch Pinot Noir 2012
Finally trying Cherry Pie (from Hundred Acre). 3 different single vineyard Pinots from 2012. Stanly Ranch is dynamite (and a vineyard to keep an eye on). Reminiscent of Kosta Browne. Next up is Rodgers Creek. Darker fruit. Less explosive, but a nice wine. Third up is Carinalli. Way lighter, though some spice to it. It's fine, but doesn't hold a candle to the other two. (Thanks Mastro's in Scottsdale for hosting me!) — 9 years ago
Studio Seven Fifty
Korte Ranch Vineyard Kirk Venge Zinfandel 2012
SakéOne
Junmai Ginjo Genshu Fifty
Very untraditional sake with a big kick... lots of flavors that are more wine based... floral grassy minty a nice change of pace... just be aware that it's not subtle sake you would expect — 10 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. — 10 years ago
Château Kirwan
Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2003
Clocking in at only 13% abv, this third growth vintage 2003 is an absolute stunner. Suave and sophisticated, abundant fruit, nice acid to balance, minerality, well integrated tannins and long finish! For maximum enjoyment decant 1 hour or more before imbibing. And yes it has amazing aging ability, this wine is still clearly a youngster, full of youthful ambitions! — 12 years ago
Greg Ballington

Third of the blind tasting for Father's Day weekend.
Dark purplish ruby red. Dark fruits on the nose with notes of forest floor and some aged characteristics of mushrooms. Solid acidity and heavy tannins (7/10). Rich palate on the attack with black fruits. Opened up to some anise, a touch aged, earthiness and some minerality. Medium plus body and long finish. Drink till 2028. (91+)
Will leave our last bottle for a few years. Hopefully this will improve with age. — 8 years ago
