Surprisingly good. Worked great with salmon. Nice cherry and dry like I like. — 10 years ago

Cadence

Coda Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2013

Ripe berry, plum, pencil lead with just a hint of cocoa and pepper on the finish. Supple integrated tannin and more balanced than a cat walking on top of a fence! Loving washington these days — 10 years ago

Domaine Sylvain Bailly

Beaucharme Quincy White Blend 2011

Savory start to dinner. Light yet oily and easy to drink. Sitting right on the fence between light citrus sauv blanc and the fatter less fruity versions of Viognier. Perfect preparations for socializing and wood fired fish dishes. Liquid grace. She's quiet, smooth, enlightened, and relaxed. Nothing too strong or too weak about her. Sister of Sancerre. — 11 years ago

Zöbinger Gaisberg Riesling 2007

Oh, Hirschy Hirsch Hirsch. This one seems to be straddling that delicious line between young and old. Starting to show signs of being that mature type white wine, but still showing that gorgeous crispness and acidity that you've come to love in good dry Riesling. Not always a fan of fence sitters, but it's hard to argue with awesomeness. — 11 years ago

Brut Nature Cumières 1er Cru Champagne Blend

I'm on the fence so to speak on Brut Nature Champagnes. This was good but remained a touch tart/sour. I think this style depends on not only maturity @ harvest but completion of malo-lactic fermentation. — 8 years ago

Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2014

A savory Chardonnay with a slightly sweet initial taste, and strong savory finish reminiscent of smoked meat. Definitely a bifurcation flavor profile, though I found it quite enjoyable. — 9 years ago

Ok first time tango with this beast - had some heat - let it breathe for 2 hours and opening up - not sure I am believer but two other times I had a higher version of their cab Shiraz I liked it - this time I am on the fence - give you this much - it can pack a fruit bomb punch - so got my Wednesday smiles going on — 8 years ago

Arianna Occhipinti

Siccagno Nero d'Avola

There's no sitting on the fence for Occhipintis...such a distinctive, exotic expression like nothing else, least of all Nero d'Avola. Nose is tobacco and mushroom, earthy. Then comes dark cherry, black stewed fruit and pipe tobacco, at the same time so big and so light. Fine, light tannins. Like old CdP. Arianna Occhipinti is this cork dork's Rock Star! — 9 years ago

Gargiulo Vineyards

G Major 7 Study 575 OVX Estate Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2012

Beautiful garnet color in the glass. Light nodes of dark fruit, rose petals and spices on the nose. Elegant tastes of blueberries, dark cherries, cinnamon and a little star anise on the finish. A very nicely structured wine with sleek tannins and just the right acidity. The Cabernet grapes for this wine come from a great area of Oakville as they stared at Screaming Eagle's grapes growing just across the fence line. One of my favorite small, family owned wineries in Napa. — 10 years ago

Schloss Gobelsburg

Gaisberg Reserve Erste Lage Riesling 2012

Hell yes. Flashing some nice warm rubber on the nose, tickling the palate with a vibrant minerality. This wine has a lot to say and if you are on the fence about whether or not this is worth your time, it certainly is if you like your rieslings in a complex, layered and bright expression. — 11 years ago
