I'll probably forget it for 2x that, TBH. 2015 will be very long lived.

Diamond Mountain District Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Popped and poured. Deep ruby color with moderate staining of the tears. Developing, with a fairly becoming nose with ripe black plums, dark bramble fruit, vanilla, some pipe tobacco, some chocolate and baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannins and medium(+?) acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. It’s really primary now but it should drink better after 2025 and through 2034. — 6 months ago

Finger Lakes Cabernet Franc 2020

2020 vintage. Wow. Medium ruby color. Red fruit aroma. Flavors of raspberry and strawberry jam, herbal note (lovage?), some bell pepper with moderate acid, little tannin depending on the temperature. Give it a moment, it will open up after 10 minutes in your glass. — 10 months ago

The Augur Kick On Ranch Vineyard Riesling 2015

Another winner from the Towe family. Ripping lemon acidity with a slight oak presence for me, which I might be confusing for its move through malo. Excited to explore more of their wines! — 6 years ago

I don't get a chance to drink many wines that behave like this one. It just kept changing. I have not had their other single vineyards but I was floored by this one.

West Block Pinot Noir 2009

This was the most Burgundian California Pinot that I’ve ever had, both the nose and on the palette. The wine would have benefited from an hour or two decant. Rich darker fruit well integrated with some tar and some earthy notes. — 8 months ago
