Cakebread Cellars

Two Creeks Vineyards Pinot Noir 2015

Over 30 years ago, Jack Cakebread came to photograph the Napa Valley for a book, one thing led to another and he found himself making an offer on the vineyard that later became Cakebread Cellars. Wonderful fruit aromas with soft spice notes. Cherry and raspberry flavors with black tea spice, pepper and mineral tones. Fine tannins, great mouthfeel and balance. Give this more time to develop. — 8 years ago

Ehlers Estate

St. Helena Sauvignon Blanc 2014

In my glass tonight. This bottle is challenging to photograph, but it looks pretty funky laying on a white surface, yes? This Ehlers Estate Sauvignon Blanc is 100% estate, 100% organic fruit from a single vineyard. Handcrafted in stainless steel and neutral French oak, it is aged sur lie for six months, which imparts a creamy texture and mouthfeel. However, the floral aromatics, purity of fruit, and juicy acidity take center stage. $28 at ehlersestate.com. (Sample) — 9 years ago

Wanted to photograph the 2001 Musigny tried at the same time. The Bonnes-Mares was good, the Musigny was a knockout. — 12 years ago

Pur Sang Pouilly-Fumé Sauvignon Blanc 2004

Wow. Twelve year old Sauvignon Blanc. Light amber / honey colored. Still kicking strong with lots of flavors coming through over time in the glass. I had to decant this through a sieve due to a dried out cork. The nose has Meyer lemon peel, barrel toast, and oak. The palate is very textured; zesty white grapefruit, kiwi, and lime up front followed by lemon oil, almond, brioche, beeswax, petrol, menthol, orange rind. There is an echo of richness, like a faded photograph. It's trying to hold its own against the lovely acidity, but seems to be losing the battle. While this will continue to provide great enjoyment over the coming 5 or so years, I feel it is beginning the downslope of its existence. What were you doing in the late summer of 2004? — 9 years ago

Domaine Comte Georges de Vogüé

Les Amoureuses Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2013

Delectable- this is actually the Musigny, not the Les Amoureuses. First of a bracket of 6 Grand Crus from Morey-Saint Denis and Chambolle Musigny. The other 5 as it turns out I Di not photograph and have in put the notes from Searching on Delectable. When done this way the notes for some reason do not feature in my news feed but they do feature on my Tasting Activity. More perfume than Gevrey Chambertin. Plummy intoxicating aromas with cherry. Not giving as much on the palate which has latent power which will be revealed with decades of cellaring. Very good. — 8 years ago

Collares Ramisco 1999

Incredible. I think Portuguese wine is so underrated. This had the complexity of a Barolo. Tannic but elegant, the fruit still present even at that age. Coworker said it drinks like a sepia photograph, love that. — 9 years ago

Michaud

The Pinnacles National Monument Pinot Blanc 2010

The label is impossible to photograph. This is the Michaud 2010 Pinot Blanc, Chalone Appellation, The Pinnacles National Monument, Monterey County. Creamy, rich & fairly complex, reminiscent of vieille vignes. Color is darker than most whites. Notes of honey or honeysuckle, peach and green apple. Unusual, very interesting yet drinkable. — 10 years ago
