Holmes Gap Vineyard

Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2011

Traditionally styled Pinot Noir full of soul. Not the ripest, showiest nor most fragrant wine but one of the most balanced and restrained I have had since delving deeper into Willamette's hundreds of micro-producers. — 11 years ago

Robert Mondavi Winery

To-Kalon I Block Fumé Blanc 2011

A mouthful of vibrant acidity, peachy/stoney vibes and a finish that would make John Holmes cry. I guess that's what one would expect from 66 year old To Kalon vines. — 11 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

The Napa Valley Warlord. Don't mess. Holmes knows how to roll. — 12 years ago

Edmunds St. John

Bone-Jolly El Dorado County Gamay Noir 2013

Back from vay-cay, perfect pairing of Za and gamay. — 11 years ago

Holmes Nelson Pinot Noir 2006

N: vanilla, steamed broccoli, black cherry, cinnamon. P: bright!, silky. L/4+/L — 11 years ago

Elyse

Morisoli Vineyard Rutherford Zinfandel 2010

Sugar Ray, not Larry Holmes. This has finesse and nuance- not an 'in your face' berry explosion. Liked it quite a bit. — 11 years ago

Getting more oak in my second go round. I might have been overly generous with my earlier rating

Beringer Vineyards

Luminus Oak Knoll District Chardonnay 2013
