Napa Valley Merlot 2019

Medium ruby in color; black plums, graphite, and cedar on the nose; medium acidity; high tannins; tastes like blackberries, blueberries, and eucalyptus with a long finish. Nellie and I like it. Bri didn't. — a year ago

Pacific Rim

Wicked Good Red Semi-Sweet Red Blend 2020

Deep ruby color; strawberry sauce, dried herbs, and licorice on the nose; low acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes the same as it smells. Too sweet for my tastes and Bri tastes (surprisingly), but Leo likes it. I think it tastes a bit like candied fennel. — 2 years ago

Beautiful aromatics - so pretty. And so much vibrancy for its seventh year. Cherry blossoms, cranberry, orange zest, subtle nutmeg. Very restrained use of oak great acid. My kind of Burgundy. Thanks Bri! — 8 years ago

Jean-Claude Debeaune

Domaine Pignard Beaujolais Gamay 2020

Medium ruby in color; cherry jolly ranchers, violets, and something fruity or floral I can't quite place; high acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes like pomegranates, bananas, and clay pots with a long finish. Nellie doesn't like it, but think she's just not a fan of gamay. I like it and so does Bri. Bri says it smells like Swedish Fish. — a year ago
