I Am George

Caymus Vineyards

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

I'm going to come clean, I'm not a huge Caymus fan. It's by no means a bad wine - far from it - but I've always felt they blend their Cab with too much Zin. I could be wrong on that account, but I don't think I am. Still, a nice brooding nose of dark red and blue fruit, with a touch of candied fruit and wet earth. — 11 years ago

Pine Ridge Vineyards

Clarksburg Chenin Blanc + Viognier Blend 2013

I must admit I am a PR addict and long standing club member BUT...we ordered this with dinner tonight and were pleasantly reminded of the bright citrus notes with a hint of sweet - perfect with spicy crab po'boys — 12 years ago

I am not sure, but think this might be Grenache? Maybe Syrah? It was cool. I think. — 13 years ago

Am Berg Grüner Veltliner 2013

With a fresh, herbal nose, and flavors of lemon grass and dill, this GrüV has a touch of starfruit and grapefruit, with a pinch of pepper. It was waxy on the lips, which cut through the bite that can make some Grüners sharp around the edges. The mouthfeel was quilted down, light and bright like fresh laundry hung dry on the line. I would want to drink this during a simple lunch of bagels and lox, with a slather of cream cheese, onions and a couple capers. Throw in a picnic blanket, and color me content #GrüV #Arnold #HastaLaVistaBaby — 11 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1998

Honey and melon and mint undertones. Unusual d'Yquem - missing the smooth creaminess I am accustomed to. Great but different. — 12 years ago

Château Saint-Pierre

St. Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 1997

I paid $20 for this bottle at an auction. I opened this bottle in 7/6/13 and it still has the classic st julien aroma. It has the structure and is a well balanced wine. I am very impressed by how well it holds up for 16 yrs. — 13 years ago

Hirsch Vineyards

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir 2011

Very well crafted Pinot. Nice fruit but does not over power the earth tones. I am becoming a real fan of Hirsch Pinots. Time to get on the mailing list. — 11 years ago
