Tart green apple and ripe melon to the nose; crisp and acidic with notes of peach, lime, honey, and minerals on the palate. Light and refreshing, reminds me of summer. — 5 years ago

@Benjamin Keator had his hosting at the CC tonight and it was absolutely incredible. What a night of gorgeous wines! All wines are guessed blind.

What an absolute treat. Sarah Francis has crafted some incredible wines, and is a close friend of Weston (from Montagu wines). She’s received monster scores and her quantity is minuscule. That being said, I called this 2012 (right vintage) Aubert (wrong producer), specifically one of their Carneros Chardonnays (got the region right!). It had a lemon cream and lemon tart richness to it with high acidity. Like Aubert’s Hudson was mixed with Aubert’s Lauren. Incredible Chardonnay. — 7 years ago

Almost clear in color with the slightest golden hue. Medium nose with subtle hints of grapefruit and vodka. Very thick on the palate, but a classic Dry Riesling throughout. Rather short finish, but very nice. — 8 years ago

Vibrantly tropical, the sparkling sauv follows through on the panel's promise of passion fruit. It's excellent on its own or with light food. — 9 years ago

Saved this Magnum for a special evening. It lived up to all expectations...perfect balance, light, dry, with hints of honey. So glad we waited, so sorry it is gone. — 9 years ago

Superb blend of typicity with regional characteristics. Taste those old vines... One of the best Central Otagos I've tasted, and there have been many. Drinking perfectly now but still plenty of life, no need to rush. Purchased in Vancouver August 2015 for ~$55. — 10 years ago

Big, bold cab but also jammier than the typical cab. Has Syrah like notes because of it. — 7 years ago

Out of magnum. You can see the trend here. In a perfect place with plenty of time left. Of all the reds this was, for me, showing the best tonight. No way you think it's Napa tasting blind. More Moutonesque as @Jason Chang so rightly professed. Bravo and feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to share this wine. — 8 years ago

Phenominal. Can't say enough good about this white. The ONLY reason I don't give it a ten is because the Orange from Kivel Stadt is just a tad better! — 9 years ago

Intense Vanilla Oak aroma, spiced fruit, dark cherry, cinnamon and nutmeg expand harmoniously and make way for a Devine finish. A FANTASTIC BUY for this blend that delivers a deep bandwidth of flavor. — 10 years ago

Rich Lake County Cabernet Sauvignon, with notes of black cherry and coffee, at Goodwin Procter event — 6 years ago

9.1

This is a great Cabernet Sauvignon from Alexander Valley. Fruit forward with black fruits and chocolate notes, earth, vegetables, bell pepper, spices and peppercorn.

Nose of sweet red candy that fades out with airtime.

Full bodied and bold with medium acidity and long legs.

Good right out of the bottle and better as it opens up and shows some complexity and tannins.

After a few hours of airtime it is much earthier with lots of vegetable notes.

Would benefit from another few years in the bottle.

14.9% alcohol by volume.
