Hécula Yecla Monastrell 2012

Leather, tannin, dark cherries and blackberries- oh wait- I was eating luscious blackberries. But I'm tasting them. So dark. Which is perfect because I'm in mourning and celebrating the life of the best man ever- my dad. He was 88 so it's ok. It's a milestone not a tragedy. So the soundtrack is Coltrane. We are now eating chocolate. Yes — 7 years ago

Notes and flavors of dark berry, sour, tart and oak. Super acidic and tanninc from the oak. Another intresting cider from Milestone. This one screams food pairing but i havnt put my finger on what to have with it. Should complement roasted meats but may also make an insane cherry float. — 8 years ago

California Chardonnay 2012

Milestone's Chardonnay (2012) is the best wine I have ever purchased off a clearance rack. Yup. $7.50 at Safeway's sale shelf, the racks located in the hallway near the bathrooms. This is a Chardonnay that I would be willing to pay full price for the next time I see it. — 9 years ago

Joseph Phelps Vineyards

Backus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 1988

My favorite of the non Togni older CA cabs. I've had a lot of back vintages of Backus at the Phelps Insignia days. This falls in line with the standard style even in a less stellar vintage. Leather, tobacco, bell pepper, menthol. Great aged Cab.

A Delectable milestone. Wine number 1250. ✌🏽🍷

This was from @Steve Anderson @Martin G Rivard so he can answer that. I can say that I obtained my 1991 Togni from the winery on their 10 year re-release in '01. That's a great way to grab Tognis with some age.

@Martin G Rivard About $35 at auction a year ago as part of a mixed bottle lot. I presume the vintage scared some off, but this had a fill well into the neck and a near perfect cork. Kudos to the person who stored this bottle perfectly for the 25 years before it came my way.👍

Domaine de la Romanée-Conti (DRC)

La Tâche Pinot Noir 1997

Roel van der Burg

My first DRC. It brought me back to a few years ago, when I was standing in front of the DRC vineyards watching the horse work the land and thinking: 'probably I will never drink a wine like this in my entire life'. Four years later there is a glass of spicy and perfumed La Tâche in front of me. A milestone to me! Amazing to say the least. But of course there was not enough time to fully comprehend what was going on. Hope to pass by this station once again... — 9 years ago
