Ovid

Experiment M9.36 Napa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend 2006

Now we're talking! Restrained nose, but it really takes off from there. Multiple red and black fruit flavors, chocolate and vanilla on the mid palate, baking spiced dark cherries and wet tobacco on the finish. Multi layered- what a wine! — 9 years ago

The Prisoner Napa Valley Zinfandel Blend

2011- gift from a friend. Excellent structure, tannins are very mellow but alcohol is still very hot. Fruit forward, possibly oxidized fruit (port-like fruit). — 11 years ago

Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia

Unico Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 1989

A delicious '89 for my friend on her 25th! Fragrant nose of dark cherries, licorice and floral notes. A full bodied, amazingly textured and elegant wine with impeccable concentration. Spice, burnt oak, black currant, cedar and earth. Such a fresh, vivacious 20 something. — 11 years ago

I'd say No. 3. My favorite was the '81 but I had an Especial bottling combining the '91, '94 and '95 a few years ago. It was spectacular. It never disappoints. It went perfectly with dry aged NY at Stake restaurant in Coronado....which I highly recommend btw.

Ehren Jordan same Wine Maker that collaborated with Jacobs creek and their Two Lands label? If so, he really had put together a nice meet and greet for that launch in Orlando earlier this year

Jordan Vineyard & Winery

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

This beautiful 2005 cab was an anniversary gift from a great friend of mine @Jeff Savigny The vintage is the year we got married. The nose is so complex and yet so subdued, it practically blew my mind. A nose full of roses, tobacco, dark fruit and licorice with a hint of molasses and vanilla. On the palate very dry, with a faint aged acidity, yet very rich and delicious. You can spend just as much time smelling this as drinking it. This was a near perfect wine and a great anniversary present! — 11 years ago

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Insignia Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1994

Friend brought a mag over and this was about the best burger wine anyone could pull from any cellar. Low acid but restrained fruit. I don't drink CA wines often enough, this was a hit. Chocolate, raspberry, very smooth and round mouthfeel. — 10 years ago
