Château Vieux Rivière

Lalande de Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2014

At last a wine that is not the remains of my Champagne weekend. It’s a smidge green and tannic. I wish I’d saved it for a few years. This is potent and interesting and I think I should have just given it at least three years. D’oh. Maybe a day or so of being open will help because the potential on this is huge given fruit, tannins and acid. — 8 years ago

Greywacke

Marlborough Pinot Noir 2014

Another winner from Greywacke, Kevin Judd sources his Pinot Noir from the more clay-dominant Southern Valleys. The wine finds a more exotic profile for Pinot - macerated blood orange peel and pomegranate meet a dizzying array of spices and herbs - curry, saffron, smoke, spearmint, and thyme. Savory, well structured, and long. — 8 years ago

Olivier Rivière

Ganko Rioja 2015

Спелая вишня, припущенная красная слива, красная смородина, ежевика, черника, ревень, мята, сухая земля, марганцовка, горькая корица. Среднее, подвижное тело с живой кислотностью и шелковой, сочной текстурой в рамке из ещё очень молодых, но отшлифованных танинов. Компактно и собранно, но не закрыто; с выраженной минеральностью; пока первично, но с хорошей глубиной и ощутимым потенциалом. Алкоголь даёт мягкое тепло, но не выжигает рецепторы; уравновешивающая его ментольная свежесть естественна и органична. Суровый, но верный баланс. Нужно ждать. — 8 years ago

Pillow Rd. Vineyard

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2011

Pillow Rd. Vineyard is situated to the southwest of Sebastopol, not far from the southern tip of the Russian River Valley, and planted to two acres of Chardonnay and seven acres of Pinot Noir. Clones 777, 115, and Pommard made up the first plantings in 2000, with Calera and Swan being added later (replacing Gravenstein apple trees). The vineyard has courted her fair share of suitors, originally being one of Duckhorn’s sources for its Goldeneye Pinot Noir. The first commercial vintage under the Pillow Rd. label was 2006. I’m not sure whether Ladera had entered the scene at that point, but it was definitely in time for their release of the 2009 vintage. In 2016 PlumpJack Group acquired Ladera’s Howell Mountain vineyard and winemaking facility, and while it appears the Pillow Rd. Vineyard wasn’t included in that sale, I haven’t seen anything that spells that out explicitly. Regardless, what is certain is that Napa Cab makers can’t quit this Russian River Pinot vineyard. It had some kinks to work out, but ultimately it’s built for pleasure and not complexity, and it eventually got there. Cherry cola, sassafras, baking spice, butterscotch, and just enough of a citrus edge to keep from losing its balance. — 8 years ago

Jequitibá Rioja Viura 2013

A lovely Rioja blanco, mostly Viura with a touch of Malvasia and Garnacha Blanca. Raised in 25% new French oak 300L/600L barrels over the winter. Very fresh acidity and bright fruit. Perfect with fried pork cheek and pulpo carpaccio. — 12 years ago

Farella-Park Vineyards

Alta Napa Valley Red Blend 2014

There are some places in the world where they view present day America as a place where we expect to be happy. Should we feel bad they live in places where you should just expect hardship? We live in a time and place where we can focus on building our inner selves and have a chance at....When we're not constantly putting out fires we can really focus on...should that be a source of shame. When the desperate struggle to find food and shelter is finally behind us, we can turn our attention to other sources of pain and truth.
This is the kinda wine you feel bad about being able to enjoy. I feel privileged.

El Cadastro Arlanza Tempranillo Grenache

Typical scent of vanilla, baking spice, dill, fruit, and red fruit. Lots of energy on the palate, a little smokey character, earthiness, and spice. Mineral finish. Rambunctious, but good. I like it! — 8 years ago

Ganko Viñedos de Cardenas Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2015

Jörgen Lindström Carlvik
9.3

No Tempranillo in this cuvee these days. 50/50 Garnacha/Mazuelo. A fair amount of whole clusters add a severe bite of tannins, while early picking warrants for high acidity and plenty of red berry flavours. Post modernist Spain at its best! — 9 years ago
