Frank Family Vineyards

Carneros Chardonnay 2022

Tropical fruit aromas. Floral nose. Full bodied and well balanced. Tropical fruit, citrus, lemon flavors. Toasted Oak is balanced and does not distract from, or mask the fruit flavors. Nicely done.

Ferrington Vineyard Anderson Valley Pinot Noir 2012

Rich, balanced Pinot that opened up after 3 hours of air. Cherry cola flavors dominated with just a hint of earth. I enjoyed the wine with rack of lamb but truth be told I liked the bouquet more than the wine. — 5 months ago

I don’t know the first vintages were so unique and different. Subsequently the wines changed.

Williams Selyem

Weir Vineyard Pinot Noir 2022

Ruby color, purple edges, with aromas of ripe fruits, floral and complex spice, aged for 16 months on French oak, 58% new, vineyard planted in 1991. On the palate concentrated flavors of strawberry and black cherry with orange citrus, herbs, vanilla and oak, soft tannins on well balanced structure. Full body, rich long finish, ending with fruit, vanilla, floral, spice and oaky tones. Very Nice! Will age! — 2 months ago

One of the handful of producers that can get me to taste Anderson Valley pinot. Not a fan. This was nice. Personally scored it 9.1/9.2. In most other hands, this rolls in at an 8.8.

Shafer Vineyards

Red Shoulder Ranch Chardonnay 2019

Tout a été dit et redit sur le Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select et le duo Doug Shafer et Elias Fernandez. Par contre un peu moins sur le Chardonnay Red Shoulder. Il provient du Red Shoulder Ranch dans le district de Carneros au nord de la vallée de Napa. Red Shoulder est une espèce d'épervier qu'on retrouve près du vignoble. Le 2021 est un vin achevé. La robe est jaune claire sans aucun signe de vieillissement. Le nez est complexe avec des notes de gingembre, de citron, de beurre et de vanille. En bouche le liquide est puissant, long, avec les mêmes saveurs qu'au nez avec du fruit de la passion en prime. L'alcool est un peu dérangent en bouche avec ses 14,9%. Ça se goûte ! — 4 months ago
