From the Flower and Vine vineyard in Los Alamos, a single vineyard Grenache. Medium tint, beautiful cherry nose, earthy and elegant. The fresh and vibrant palate shows youthful cherry in a “soil-heavy” manner. — 8 years ago

Surprise surprise!! Never paid much attention to Malbec when ordered at happy hour but this one 😻 maybe more where I found it. Gem of a booze purveyor, nestled on a height with a westward view of the sparkling dtla skyline. Took this little guy home, and yum! Malbec convert. 🍷 — 9 years ago

This dry farmed Chardonnay from Foxen was part of a shipment, and from a vineyard I always enjoy drinking. Rancho Tinaquaic was a land grant, from Mexico, given in 1837 in which the Tinaquaic vineyard resides. The vineyard is just northeast of Los Alamos. The land grant was purchased by Foxen co-owner Dick Doré's great great grandfather. The Foxen boys typically dry farm these grapes and sometimes the results can be magnificent (e.g. 2007 Cab Franc or 2012 Syrah). Great care must be taken with the dry farmed fruit - the right soil, microclimate, and maintenance - or the grower will be left more raisin than grape. Foxen is one of the few in Santa Barbara county that still practice the craft, and practice it well. ~$37 | #foxen #chardonnay #tinaquaic

On the tongue: Med+ acid, med tannin, med alcohol, med+ body, buttery in the mouth. Tropical fruits, (think pineapple, guava, and lychee), rounded out with cashew and orange blossom. Nice finish. — 10 years ago

Rich purple in color with a nose full of sage and mountain herbs, this mouthwatering wine has fruity notes of blackberry and raspberry that introduce a muscular structure with earthy notes. A highly focused wine, delectable and powerful, composed of succulent fruit, aromatic spice and marvelous piquancy. Pairs well with chocolate desserts!
The grapes were sourced from the Koehler Estate Vineyard in Los Olivos and Black Oak Vineyard in Los Alamos, in Santa Barbara County. 91 Points, Wine Enthusiast Magazine. — 11 years ago

Nice crisp chardonnay with a mellow fruit and citrus finish. Dry but not too dry finish on palate. Great to have with Lemon chicken, pesto, fruit and cheese. Nice everyday. Great buy at Costco. 2014 vintage. — 9 years ago

Great wine! Tropical flavors like mango and pineapple, also candied lemon, herbs and white pepper. Med-high body and acidity. — 10 years ago

9.1

Very full bodied and complex with a French interpretation of the classic Malbec dominance. The French construction adds depth, complexity, finish and smooths or tempers the tendency of Malbec to be overly intense, but lacking in depth and complexity. A better "Malbec", in my view. — 10 years ago
