Grazing Cattle

Failla

Hudson Vineyard Syrah 2012

Damn, sunshine and Syrah in good hands makes a great wine. Bold but balanced, this is well made Syrah that if I had the patience could go another 5-10 years easy. Great nose, violets, leather, dusky rose and a hint of earth. Palate is a really lovely match of acid and tannin. Slight sweetness gives way to a lingering deep berry fruit and a sense of measured power. Held up well against my smoked Highland Cattle brisket in Pendleton Whiskey BBQ sauce. Didn't over power was a pretty spot on match. — 8 years ago

Le Petit Balthazar Pays d'Oc Viognier Sauvignon Blanc 2015

This wine is me, sitting alone and unobtrusively in the middle of a savanna on a breezy day, surrounded by grazing bison. Grassy, sunny, slightly salty, and delicious. For an introverted nature lover, best feeling ever. Got this at Wine Sense. — 10 years ago

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Freestone Vineyards Chardonnay 2013

A family-owned winery founded in 1973 when Joe Phelps purchased a former cattle ranch near St. Helena in the Napa Valley, the winery now farms about 375 acres of vines on 8 estate vineyards. Beautiful aromas of ripe stone fruits, citrus and honey. On the palate crisp ripe apple and pear flavors with lemon zest nicely balanced acidity. Lingering finish ending with creamy oak. — 8 years ago

Warspite Cabernet Franc Blend 2012

Lovely stuff. Layers of complexity that will surely develop with time. Sweet fruit and savoury notes, with hints of dried petals. Perfect for savouring with a grazing platter. — 10 years ago

Château Pégau Cuvée Setier Côtes du Rhône Villages Red Rhone Blend 2013

60% Grenache, 20% Syrah, 20% Mourvedre

Complex aromas showing earthiness, manure, a bit of cattle ranch, medicinal, with some flowery/lavender/violet undertone.

Med plus dusty tannin, medium plus acid. Expressing more fruits on the palate than its bouquet. Cassis, dark cherry, blackberry. Mineral and gravelly soil tone.

This is almost ready now. Drink within 5 years. 89.

Domäne Wachau

Terrassen Federspiel Grüner Veltliner 2012

I love the prickly acidity and round mouthfeel of this wine. I don't get much of a fruit character other than maybe some lime peel but very restrained to me. White pepper notes, really almost like dried alfalfa and grass. Reminiscent of a working cattle farm from youth. — 10 years ago
