Gnarly Head
Limited Release Authentic Black Red Blend 2013
It's a bit sweet but has a nice flavor. Can definitely taste the fruitiness and is definitely different from other wines. It's nice to have when straying from the status quo. — 10 years ago

Di Bruno
Clarksburg Pinot Noir 2018
Richard Bruno has again crafted a Pinot upon which even non-Pinot oenophiles, such as myself, may yet shower with praise. It has a lot of dark and inky body, which makes one wonder; in California, a wine can be labeled as varietal if it is at least 75% from that grape. It therefore begs the question for Mr. Bruno: what other grapes are in this blend? While it has the acidity of a typical PN, making it a great accompaniment to fish or Chinese food, it has a very solid tannic structure, as well as a much darker tint to the color than is normally seen in a typical dark pink PN. Mayhap some inky Bordeaux grape, such as Cabernet, Merlot, or even some Petit Verdot has entertainingly corrupted the PN Purists’ concept of a PN? This PN lacks the disgusting cigar flavor of the “pure” version, and presents dark cassis and dried currant fruit, with a chewy licorice tannic structure, and a unique gravelly mouthfeel to the finish. I love it when I find a beautiful PN that is certain to annoy the cognoscenti! Cheers and L’Chaim to all those who rebel against the status quo in any regional varietal! — 6 years ago

Te Awanga Estate
Quarter Acre Hawke's Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2013
Not your typical NZ Sauv Blanc this one has nice body and richness along with crisp white fruits delivered on a stony, mineral frame. An excellent and enjoyable departure from the status quo. — 11 years ago

Terroir and map hunting as wine tasting sport! This is a beautiful Barolo and so well made and contained for such a warm year. Elegance and terroir prevail! As usual, producer trumps vintage status quo! #vajra — 9 years ago

It is Thursday night the eve before the start of another weekend. I have opened the 2018 Patricia Green Cellar Durant Vineyard Madrone Block Pinot Noir. This is a beautifully balanced pinot noir from the Dundee Hills of the Willamette Valley of Oregon.
The nose brings out notes of cherry, raspberry, floral notes, sassafras, vanilla, cola, clove and baking spices.
Onnthe palate there is cherry, raspberry, cranberry, spice, vanilla, herbs, hibiscus and forest floor.
This wine is a beautiful expression of Pinot Noir that is beautifully well balanced and is medium bodied with medium + acidity and medium fine tannins that lead into a medium to long red fruit finish. Here we are on the eve before the start of another weekend and we need to look within to see how we want to proceed in life? Do we want to try and make something out of our life and do right with our fellow man or proceed with the status quo and not make a mark on this world.i hope we all want to make a difference and try and lift one another up. Let try and support one another and see above the hate and discontent. Please be kind to one another and be healthy and safe so we can all make this a better place. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 5 years ago
