Happy Spring! It’s one of our favorite points in the year. More; daylight, a little warmer in CA and everything starts to bloom which, means a long summer of gardening and being outdoors every day/night is not far off.
Since it was such a great day and basically most Californians are shut-Ins, the voluntary self quarantining was getting to me. I did the landscaping and got an afternoon of fresh air today. A breath of fresh air...ahhh! Wow, was it needed after Gavin’s Newsom’s estimate of 25.5 million Californians would be infected with Coronavirus over 8 weeks yesterday.
So, a good night to celebrate another day of being virus free with my 2nd favorite N/V Rosé Champagne.
All my numerous previous notes apply.
Stay safe everyone and remember the new terminology of the new decade...social distancing! Cheers! 🍾🥂

Sweet and not smokey or Petey. Rhonda loves it. Harper Seldin gave us a 10 year old bottle. — 7 years ago
12’ Alexana Revana Vineyard Block 8 . The very best five barrels each year. 11 months in barrel, additional 14 months in bottle before release.
A complete waste if you don’t decant this for two hours. Gorgeous color. Nose- Dried flowers & hint of spearmint. Palate- Dark raspberries, dark stone fruits, spices, black pepper. Touch of cola.
Moderate acidity. This would benefit with a little more age. @Martin G Rivard Santa with another delivery to my door. Can’t thank you enough. Love you buddy! — 9 years ago


Heavy peat up front, but very smooth finish. Phenomenal for an 8 year! — 9 years ago
Another great wine from Chile. Crimson red with aromas ripe red and black fruits and floral notes. On the palate this wine shows strawberry, blackberry and blueberry flavors with cinnamon spice and black pepper. A blend of 92% carmenere and 8% petit verdot, this wine had a long and silky finish with smooth tannins and ended with cacao notes. — 10 years ago

Love the light sweetness and fine bubbles — 7 years ago
This wine has all the makings of being great one day. It’s just about 8-10 years more years away.
The wine is just staring to round out, integrate and show its elegance. Ruby, creamy currants, earth, graphite, tobacco leaf, stones, dark most soil, round acidity and a very well polished finished.
This is my favorite Ribeye wine and it didn’t disappoint...only that is still too young. 95-96 in another decade.
