Caldwell Vineyard Merlot

Amazing. An epiphany. Menthol, lavender, red and purple fruits. Fragrant and elegant, but with a core of new world fruit. Resolved sweet tannins. Long finish. Spectacular — 7 years ago

Coombsville Estate Grown Cabernet Sauvignon

This is magical...
Expansive nose of sweet tobacco, soy sauce and a hint of cloves.
On the palette, it's plush and expansive. Fleshy black fruits lead into a big tannic structure, which we love. The wine has a long tail, which finishes sweet, with a kiss of acidity. This needs a little more time in the bottle, but it's already very classy.
Thanks to
@Eric Shanks who gifted us this glorious example. Happy new year to you and yours, mate.

On the nose; ruby, glowing, ripe, slightly candied fruits of; blackberries, dark cherries, blue fruits and black raspberries. Soft minerals if you can call them that, caramel, cinnamon, vanilla, chocolate, whiff of black licorice and perfumed, red florals & roses. The beauty and quality of the fruits turn the eyes up. Bright and a sense dull at the same time. The body is full and beautiful. Tannins nicely round and soft for a 13. Its extremely silky & elegant. Fruits of; blackberries, blue fruits, plum, dark cherries, creamy raspberries, black raspberries, black plum and strawberries paint the background. Fruits are a touch gummy. Vanilla, caramel, dark chocolate, anise, mocha, soft leather, wood shavings, fine crushed rock powder & fine chalky minerals. Acidity near perfect. The structure, balance & length are well executed harmony. The finish is beautiful, well polished and lasts two minutes. Excellent pairing of Guinness Braised Beef Short Ribs, Horseradish Mashed Potatoes & Haricots Verts from Davis Estate Chef Mark Caldwell and featured in the middle left photo. Other photos of; the vines above the Estate, lobby and the vines/view from the Estate terrace. — 7 years ago

Caldwell Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1990

Surprise blockbuster WOTN. Layers of rich silky fruit, spice box, cherry tobacco. This winery was one of the first to get me engaged with wine in the mid 90's. The old crimson basic label still holds a special place with me. This brought some wine epiphany memories rushing back. I had forgotten this old friend a little but the reunion was sweet. The new somm at Addison was effusive. Respect. — 8 years ago

I'd assume so, we only have one in my neck of the woods. But Addison's on my bucket list of where I'd like to take my career so we'll see where the tasting menu game leads me with experience and study haha.

The wine list is 128 pages or something like that @Chris Parrino and it's spectacular but appears to carry a x4 markup. I brought in all the wine but the Dauvissat. Corkage is $75 but they didn't charge for the Climens in .375. The service, setting and style is beyond compare. All delivery and removal of items is synchronized with each guest having their own server/runner. The chef's menu was exquisite and went on forever. It was fancy but not stuffy and a food and wine lovers dream. I'll do it again without a doubt. The wine director worked for Suckling and he had some fun stories. I think it would be a great place to take your talents.

@Bill Bender thanks for filling me in on that. lol I help run a 2 page wine list, long road ahead. But my sister restaurant is relais and Chateau like them. If you ever travel and want to do eat somewhere other than Michelin that's "recognized", highly recommend R&L website for a trip. It's recognized worldwide and not in major cities only.
