Abstract Grenache Blend 2013

Big and juicy if that's your thing. Very California. Hard to get a read on the grape varietals in this wine.... — 11 years ago

Clos de Vougeot Grand Cru Pinot Noir 2006

Having read Clive Coates and Jancis Robinson comments on Clos de Vouget my expectations had been adjusted a light Pinot which opened up with good fruit raspberry and strawberry with mint notes a good Otago NZ could equal this, went well with baked Salmon — 12 years ago

Vinsanto del Chianti Classico Trebbiano-Malvasia Blend 2003

2003 Vin Santo del Chianti Classico from our trip in Tuscany in Italy. Hands down the greatest dessert wine I have ever tasted. Aged for 6-8 years in a room on the rooftop of the villa in small chestnut wood barrels. Intense sweet aromas of figs, vanilla, honey etc...t least what the online review I read stated. I just thought it was excellent. Was €39 for a 375ml bottle and well worth it. — 13 years ago

Alto Adige - Südtirol Pinot Grigio 2013

I am so happy to be trying this Pinot Grigio from north eastern Italy, Alto Adige. I have read a few articles on this region and my friend Erik had been taking it up lately so I had to jump in with both feet. The aromas are wonderful with peach, pear, melon, cotton candy, and bubble gum. The palate is very smooth with a rich round mouthfeel and the full fruit of peach and pear. There is a bright & lively acidity and a touch of chalky minerality on the backend. This is at a great QPR $16.79 — 12 years ago

Cakebread Cellars

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Could use a little age. That said, cake read large format is always a good go to vine. Suit is noticeable up front and pretty smooth finish. Not quite subtle yet as too young but holds its own. — 12 years ago

Initial Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

These are the real deal, better than what I read about them from the geek set. Powerful and elegant at the same time, tremendous depth and clarity.
