Pursuit

Sebastiani

Gravel Bed Sonoma County Red Blend 2014

One glass deep and in pursuit of giving this a proper read I had to recork it in lieu of immediately demolishing the bottle in an orgy of self-indulgent hedonism. The 2014 picks up where the 2013 left off. Richer, darker, with slightly more structure yielding a more true meritage style, but just as damn delicious. — 9 years ago

Can you think of a bottle that has rated as highly for you with such a low price point? Just had this last night.

@TheSkip Maybe Puech Haut’s La Closerie du Pic, but it’s just slightly higher in price.

Delicate white flower. Soft Lemon with ripe yellow fruit. Subtle touch of mineral. Focused and orderly. Jasmine's marketed pursuit of balance rings true without compromising sense of place. — 10 years ago

Liked it better at In Pursuit of Balance
but everything tastes better in a festive wine event with lots of gourmet bites at your side. I bet it'll be better in 2017

Domaine Michel Noëllat

Bourgogne Pinot Noir 2012

For $25 this is amazing. Vosne Bourgogne for the price is amazing. Has lots of acidity so if it's not your thang than we're not on the same page. I think in 5 years it goes to 9.2 and for $25 that's amazing. I would love to see this put blindly in a group with all the California $75 in pursuit of balance pinots. — 11 years ago

Big Basin Vineyards

Coastview Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

Bill Bradley straight killing it! Blueberry cedar, cherry compote (Rainer) with a aged light red Rainer cherry acidity it's pure loveliness! It stands up against lightly seasoned sous vide ribeye. Silky but your pursuit of the subtleties will give way to nice tannic grip, but it shows some velvet. Melts the fat and sticks around to shake your hand after. — 10 years ago

Cask 23 Napa Valley Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 1992

After reading Laube's unapologetic paen to the ripe, fruity and high-alcohol 2013 Napa Cabs (in pursuit of ripeness!?), this beautifully aged 1992 proves the exception to today's fashion. 13.5%. still going strong. — 11 years ago

Tart cherries, wonderful acidity for structure. Low alcohol (13.2%) west of west and in pursuit of balance style. Great with food. Will benefit from a few Ulysses age, but is good now. — 11 years ago

Domaine Eden

Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Domaine Eden proves itself worthy of inclusion in Rajat Parr & Michael Mina's "In Pursuit of Balance" with this elegant Cabernet blend. Nice mingling of both red and dark fruits with the classic profile of French oak: a fine silky texture and notes of woodsy leather nuttiness and licorice with some fresh minty herbs and a cool, clean finish. At last, concentration without extraction! High quality and great value at $40 — 12 years ago
