Tommasi

Tenuta Caseo Pernice Rossa Pinot Nero 2013

My first Italian Pinot Noir - and much like my favourite French varietal hailing from St. Hippolyte, this one delivers with a satisfying mouth feel and experience. Punches above its weight for the price, and reminiscent of some French lineage. Excellent finish - a great glass all around! — 7 years ago

Château Picard

LaBarre Red Blend

Taster's Log - Stardate 41254.7: A Chateau with a meteoric rise and absolutely legendary lineage. Kling on to this one though. Engage drinking 2275 through 2297. Pretty standard price at $0 since money no longer exists. 9.7/10 — 8 years ago

O'Shaugnessy Estate

Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

Napa cab with Irish lineage and, after a few hours, a Bordeaux soul. Rich, cedary Napa nose followed by dark plum, black cherry and dark chocolate. Tobacco. This has years to go, but comes out after an hour+ decant. Outstanding. — 8 years ago

North Coast Syrah 2012

Drank like a champ! Stout black stone fruit declares new world rearing but intense fines-herbs underpinnings suggest French lineage. The clarity in flavors conjure images of Sugarplum faeries...and Québécois lumberjacks. — 9 years ago

Falcon's Perch Monterey County Pinot Noir 2012

Can't beat this one for the price , or the lineage of the brand. Actually get a berry, woodsy, smokey bouquet. Jammy black cherry and pepper fruit with mineral undertones. Really nice, great with food or wine for good friends - more special than a party wine. — 9 years ago

Reserve 35th Anniversary Lineage Petite Sirah Blend 2014

One of the best I've ever had. Petite Syrah, cab franc, Alicante bouchet. Oak barrels were imported from France. 38 months in the barrels. — 10 years ago

Henschke

Hill of Grace Vineyard Shiraz 2010

From Shiraz vines planted in 1860, this may be the most expensive wine I've ever tried as well as one with the oldest lineage. Is it worth the price? I'm not sure you can put a price on such heritage - a century and a half in a glass. But anyone who doubts that Australian Shiraz can't rival the northern Rhône for complexity and longevity needs to get to Eden Valley and taste this wine. — 7 years ago

One of my favorite old school Paso zin producers (part of the old Pesenti vineyard and lineage). Super low production. This one was probably better a few years ago but still very enjoyable. Had with ribs before my Gators get destroyed by Kentucky. — 9 years ago

Domaine Jean Royer

Le Petit Roy Red Rhône Blend 2015

He may only be the dauphin, but the CdP lineage shows. Attenuated nose of currant bushes and herbs. Palate is a fat bitter blueberry note with herbs and cheek-quavering tannic finish. Great work. Amazing QPR. — 7 years ago

Bravium

Beau Terroir Vineyard Pinot Noir

This 2011 Napa Valley, Carneros #pinotnoir from the Beau Terroir Vineyard expresses its cool vintage & earthly lineage beautifully, with notes of briars, strawberries, & breakfast tea on a nose tethered to a palate that is enticingly textural, endowed with the satiny, sapid acidity of strawberries finishing long, with a fun flourish of dark chocolate, thoroughly complimenting those strawberry characters. Fun vino! — 8 years ago

The Mascot

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Very well structured wine. Light in the palate but surprisingly long finish. Dark fruit and bark with some apricot. I think this has some Harlan lineage. Sweet!!!

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Artemis Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Welcome friends to Dr Todds wine bar. Today we are tasting Artemis by Stag's Leap Wine Cellars. This is the 2012 Cab. It is their cheapest cab and its still 45 dollars. Imagine that! My taste is too expensive for my wallet!
The cork has a perfect absorption line with a very very small rim in perfect lineage! no breaks . The color is opaque and dark purple / black just like I like it. The legs are long at 5 sec. The initial boquet is a bit disappointing. There is a hint of perfume. But if we let it breathe for 15 min, its gone. Then we have ripe plum. The initial palate is sour apple and sweet plum. Sweet and sour like youve never had! There is no spice. The finish is amazing. This is where it gets good! It is very dry but not to the point of not being able to move your mouth. The tongue has a dry grip on the lower half from the base to the tip. Then its gone!!!!! No aftertast at all. The one thing about this wine is it never lets you down! its always the same. A great wine for the price.

Suertes del Marqués

Los Pasitos Vino de Parcela Baboso Negro

Really cool wine from the Canary Islands. Grape is called Baboso Negro, which is Mencia (Galicia), Bastardo (Portugal) and Trousseau (Jura). More tannic than Trousseaus, but you can detect the lineage. Fragrant nose. Still had some acidity despite the heat of the islands. — 9 years ago
