Randall Monroe

Laurel Glen Vineyard

Sonoma Mountain Estate Cabernet Sauvignon 1985

So old world in its interpretation and how it showed with graceful age here in 2019. Very little intervention in the winemaking as I have come to understand it from Randall and getting to know these wines past and present. A surprise winner of the bottles opened as part of dinner in good company. I will keep my eyes peeled for more bottles of the 1980’s vintages from LG as I have seen a few pop up across Sonoma County’s wine honey holes 🍯 — 7 years ago

Old Telegram Mourvedre 2014

The grapes - Randall Grahm likes to call the Mourvedre fruit Mataro - hail from Contract Costa County’s Del Barba Vineyard, 56 acres of vines at an average age of 73 years.
The extremely dark wine smells of black pepper, burnt cherries, licorice, meat and smoke. It's a beautiful nose. Savory squared. Flavors of dark fruit power over the earth and coffee and mint .

Casa Madero

Cabernet Sauvignon-Merlot 2014

Like a warm piñon campfire, from the next Valley, this nose wafts.

Blue vs red berries throwing fisticuffs around my tongue, refereed by a stavely gent, in a light, acid suit.
(Sometimes I channel Randall Grahm)
I love this wine house. Amazing.

Cuvée R Rancho Solo Grenache 2014

This wine is medium-dark in the glass and has those great savory nose notes that Randall Grahm seems to pack into every bottle of wine he makes. Leather, black olives and smoke are the first to escape. The palate stays on Savory Street with a big olive play on the dark fruit. Acidity is positively mouth-watering and the tannic structure is quite firm. Pair it with pork or fowl easily. I had mine with an honest-to-god Pennsylvania nut roll and almost hallucinated. It was that good. — 9 years ago

Le Cigare Volant Réserve en Bonbonne Red Rhone Blend 2012

It's a savory wine, the way I like it and the way Randall Grahm usually makes it. Dark and mysterious, it smells of meat and olives and earth, with a little black fruit thrown in just to make it palatable for everybody else. There is, however, a “cleanliness” to it that is often obscured by oak. It's just the same way on the palate, with flavors mimicking the aromas. The finish lingers comfortably and provides plenty of anticipation for the next sip. Meditate on a piece of dark chocolate while sipping this. — 9 years ago

This is the 2012 vintage, which was pulled from release because Randall decided to put that the product contained milk on the label, although it actually doesn't. — 10 years ago

Condrieu Viognier

I am so in love with this wine. One of the most beautiful representations of Viognier in such a romantic form. Viscosity that gives it the curves of Marilyn Monroe and the acidity of Audrey Hepburn! Rich, floral, succulent and nothing less than honeyed nectarine and honeysuckle. And a saline-esk mineral finish that has you flirting with the next sip. Thank you Gangloff, thank you! — 10 years ago
