Ellis Alden Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 2015

This wine possess a great deal of potential. The vineyard has the capability too. Honey, melon and a coated citrus fruit marries with bright acidity. A medium bodied wine. @Palmer Emmitt @Paul T @Martin G Rivard @Connor McMahon @Terri Walker @TheSkip @Warren Sapp @Terri Walker @Eric S @Jacqueline @Vanessa D @Jim Trobaugh @Jody Scharf @David L @Vanessa D @Eric S @Neal Schaffer @Bill Bender @Ian Blackburn — 8 years ago

Morlet Family Vineyards

Coeur de Vallée Cabernet Sauvignon

@Mike R @David L @Joe Lucca @Ron R @Paul T The WOTN was a beauty so generously given to me by my Bud Paul Treadway! Thanks Paul!!! The tasting notes between the Beau Vigne Estate and Morlet's Coeur de Vallee are eerily similar. The true differentiation between the 2 is Morlet's seem less integration at this time. My buddy Kirk @Kirk Alexander always says "The test of a great wine is when nothing jumps out at you". This particular bottle did just that. Every person this evening commented on the fact that it was such a superbly balanced wine. It was dialed back ever so slightly in all the right spots for it to dance on your palate effortlessly.
Thank you Paul for a stellar bottle!!
It was enjoyed by friends outdoors on this beautiful S FL cool night. What else could one ask for?

@David Trumper Not a problem at all! I love sharing wines with new friends. A lot of us on delectable have done it. It's part of the fun of sharing our tasting notes & insights on the wines we are drinking. I would love to introduce you to the Beau Vigne winery by fedexing a few bottles to you. Piece of cake!

Magnum 2008 Peter Michael Point Rouge Chardonnay. Dinner at Tap w S&L DiM and P&S Co. Super. Loved especially at Susie and Lydia- the Chardonnay lovers. Not overly oaky- just rich and oaky enough to know it's a CA Chardonnay, but not so much that it's buttery and too rich in oakiness. Enjoyed. — 9 years ago

@Rob Brobst III : Though it's no longer the same name, the new property (Brasswood) has their own label...Cab that is Coombsville fruit and a Chardonnay. Haven't had either, but hear good things. Some rockin labels make their wine there like Montagu, Addax and Moone-Tsai 👌

Vice Versa

Le Petit Vice Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

I needed to open something just to get through @David L 's posts of all his epic wines from last night. I hate you, I love you, brother! But back to this. Wow. Talk about a vice - this could become one for me - definitely is one I need to stock up on. Drinking so incredibly well. Berries all day long with some nice hints of vanilla. While nicely balanced this is definitely a fruit-driven wine. And there is nothing "petit" about this. Big, bold, badass. Loved it. — 8 years ago

@Carl Fischer don't worry, I missed out too! But I continue to suspect it's:
A) a 14 hour drive down I95
B) something to do with having a newborn in the house!

Jeff G's birthday mag after the roll downs were pulled at K&L. From vines planted in the 1950's in Cramant & Oiry, still the source of cuttings for Launois' massal selections. This is a very rich, creamy BDB that goes deep on minerality, even in a fatter vintage. — 10 years ago
