Mixed Blacks Napa Valley Red Blend 2015

This is really good. At 15% and a hot day, I was worried this would be too big. But it is so well balanced , no problem. Nose of chocolate. Nice round berry on the palate, easy finish. Great with grilled steak- great after. — 7 years ago

Good, but forgettable. Great nose full of vanilla and blackberries, but on the tongue, it wasn't very complex. Earthy, light fruits, and a bit of clove. Dissipated without much of a fuss. — 8 years ago

Aih! Forgettable. The backhanded complement. One of my favorites.

@TheSkip : Valid point! It basically means it's between a bad wine and a good wine...defined as mediocre. Could be worse, but could be better!

Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2013

Terrific, quintessential Loire Sauvignon - crisp mineral acidity and beautiful fruity sweetness to back it up. This is modern style - still clearly Loire in emphasizing structure over citrus peel but wonderfully opulent and generous and far fruitier than most from New Zealand and more mineral than most from South America. Want Sauvignon purity? - this is where you'll find it. Pristine and delicious — 9 years ago
