2012 Patton Valley Vineyard Queen Bee - Blackberries, cherry cola, and hints of black trumpet mushrooms. Black cherries, blackberries, cinnamon and mace gush on the tongue. Black currants, vanilla, and field mushrooms fill out the mid-palate, with a rather short finish of cola and grapefruit pith. — 10 years ago
A magnificent young wine, the powerful and gifted 2011 Altocedro Malbec Gran Reserva simply takes over the palate and demand attention. Not just another ultra rich wine, this one has the undeniable soul of the ages. Made from vines that are over 100 years old, one gets the sense of place. Drawn from La Consulta in the Valle de Uco from the vast district of Mendoza, this wine stand proudly on the international stage! Black currants, tar and earth gush out as soon as the wine hits the glass. This is one of my top wines of the year! #malbec #argentina #redwine #mendoza #valledeuco #laconsulta #altocedro #karimmussisaffie — 12 years ago

When a wine finally has its moment. Have visited @wieninger's 2009 Nussberg Alte Reben Wiener Gemischter Satz for three years hoping for it to crack open and gush forth with giving fruit, minerals, textural play. It has. It's ready, folks! #wienerwein — 10 years ago
Opened for three days, revealing peppercorn, salinity and smokehouse on the nose. Dark plums and cherries gush onto the tongue, giving way to Kalamata olives, caraway, anise, mushrooms, and fertile soils. Great finish of rich, raw meat and dark chocolate. — 11 years ago
An underrated Nebbiolo wine from Piemonte. Dried rose petals, alpine herbs, bright acidity, fine tannins and mineral driven *gush* — 13 years ago
2013 Walter Scott X Novo Vineyard Chardonnay - heavy reduction and petrol on the nose, with fresh mangoes and pineapple coming through. Youth and life gush onto the tongue with green apples, lychee, and limeade. White pepper arrives mid-palate with hints of juniper. A spicy, peppery finish that goes! A favorite! #0regonChardonnaySymposium — 10 years ago

Wow. 2008 Peters. I could have waited another 5 years on this or more. Nose is just pure fruit, maybe a tad sweet for some, but I find it to be in perfect balance with the acid, tannin and fruit. The flavor to@me is more raspberry than cherry. Tannin is in the background with the fruit and acid playing against one another. I hate to gush much but this is really good, maybe just a personal preference. — 10 years ago
