Wicked Good Red Semi-Sweet Red Blend 2020

Deep ruby color; strawberry sauce, dried herbs, and licorice on the nose; low acidity; medium minus tannins; tastes the same as it smells. Too sweet for my tastes and Bri tastes (surprisingly), but Leo likes it. I think it tastes a bit like candied fennel. — 2 months ago

Silver Totem Chardonnay

I so enjoy this Chardonnay. The only possible flaw is that it’s too easy to drink and this is my last bottle! — 3 years ago

Cortijo Los Aguilares

Tadeo Serranía de Ronda Petit Verdot 2017

A minor ingredient in Bordeaux blends, Petit Verdot is one of those grape varieties that enjoy greater popularity away from home. Notoriously late-ripening, grapes can have difficulties undergoing veraison in Bordeaux, especially in cold years, remaining unusable green berries (hence its name, “little green”). While Petit Verdot often fails to ripen in Bordeaux, it seems to flourish in warmer regions, such as some parts of Australia, California and Spain, where its long-cycle offers winemakers a hedge against global warming. With over 3,000 hours of sunshine per year, the region of Ronda in southern Spain has turned out to be an ideal location for Petit Verdot - which even here, doesn’t get picked until late October or early November.

Cortijo Los Aguilares’ Tadeo is one of Ronda and Spain’s most recognized Petit Verdot bottlings. Sourced from the estate’s El Calero plot at 900m (nearly 3,000 ft) elevation in Ronda, in the province of Málaga. Fermented in stainless steel and aged in French oak for 15 months. Dark ruby color with purple rim. Fragrant, very attractive, complex nose with layers of black fruit (bramble), smoke and graphite, herbal notes, sweet spices, vanilla and violets. Full-bodied, structured, powerful tannins. Impressive.
