Florence Vineyard Zinfandel

This one aging gracefully. Primary fruity and floral aromatics have evolved into loamy dark fruits. On the palate it maintains its elegance and freshness and shows black cherry, black raspberry and subtler spice notes with a very satisfying finish! 2011 Vintage — 9 years ago

Charles VII La Grande Cuvée Brut Blanc de Noirs Champagne

Pale golden yellow color with plenty of active bubbles a very creamy mousse and with a red currant, baked cherry, raspberry and spice character. An elegant Champagne that had me thinking of pairing with mushroom, or seafood risotto. Me think good as an aperitif, but better with a variety of main courses! 70% PN/30% Meunier — 10 years ago
