A French Malbec, combining the love for Malbec and Cote du Rhone. Full bodied and heavy but a light flavor that lays on top. Drinking in honor of baby Henry's entrance to the world! — 10 years ago

2002 vintage. All meunier in honor of Rene Collard the Marne Valley meunier master. Great acid structure, but with broadness from the grape, barrel development, and aging on the cork. This is labeled de Meric, but it's the same single-foeder production as later disgorgments labeled Ginsburg. — 10 years ago

In honor of Washington Wine Month, a wine from a premier winery. For a nearly 12 year old wine, it tastes fresh and vibrant. Perfumed with blackberry, cassis and hints of cedar. On the tongue, it's silky smooth and elegant with acidity that suggests it could age another 3-5 more years. Incredible stuff. — 11 years ago
On this Friday I am trying this Pinot Noir from the Willamette Valley. As the name says "Et Fille" or and daughter to honor my lovely Daughter Danielle the light of my life. The nose on this wine is a beautiful strawberry and red raspberry. On the palate gives a nice strawberry, minerality, though just a bit weak on the backend. There is some oak right on the backend. Nice all together. — 12 years ago

Evan Roberts

My favorite California Cab producer. Had the honor of pouring beside him in NYC, and touring his vineyard with Rebecca just before he passed. The closest thing to 1970's best cabs and incredible value. 2006 is lush full of everything you could hope for, earth, blackberry, leather, and a hint of smoke. A little hint of almost cognac on the finish, smooth and balanced finish. Acid still great and plenty of age left. Glad I have a lot more to enjoy — 9 years ago
