Veltlínské Zelené 2016

Not unpleasant but notes of paint on the nose, sweet palate, turns into pear and apricot over a long finish. Acidity provides a nice balance. — 6 years ago

Pierce Ranch

Verdelho 2015

A cheery mix of coconut, unripe pineapple, and tannins. I love this Monterey wine. It reminds me of the old days, of a college party with music, booze, frat guys, and Malibu Rum. — 8 years ago

Lucia Vineyards (Pisoni)

Garys' Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013

Rediculously delicious bottle of pinot. And yes if Gary's name is on it, I buy it. Family owned Star market in Salinas has the best selection of local wine. Shared it with my girl Patrice and the waiter at our local in Malibu — 9 years ago

Sauvignon Republic Cellars

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2014

What a steal! $7.99 at Trader Joe's and it's the embodiment of a Marlborough Sav Blanc - inexpensive, dry, herbal and minerally — 9 years ago

Bear Republic Brewing Company

Hop Rod Rye 1995

I'm an IPA guy, but this is a great alternative. Full bodied, but not the overwhelming taste of a stout. Great crossover for an IPA drinker as it has just a bit of hoppy bite to satisfy just about anyone. — 10 years ago

Sauvignon Blanc 2014

Woodstock Collection The Witch Napa Valley Red Blend 2014

Seriously, Malibu. Do you have to use an inch of wax to seal every bottle? You're really making me work for this one. Ripe black cherry and baking spice entices the nose. Young bright and fun on the palate. It's definitely equipped for aging across the decade. Just have a machete handy to bust through that wax. Paired tonight's offering with a massive rare tomahawk steak. Nom nom. — 7 years ago

Just got into Napa from a long day of traveling. Starting in Malibu for India's MBA graduation to Napa for celebrations! We decided to grab a heavy varietal and stick with Napa. This wine was a deep and dark ruby red, actually almost purplish black that completely coated the glass. Very interesting nose that was a little tight to start. Finally opened up over the next hour with some blackberries and freshly broken branches. Started with some softer dark fruits, but also coated with thick blackberries. Not overly sweet at all. Moderate tannins (7/10) and moderate plus body. Some red berries with their bright acidity near the finish. Moderate plus finish. Can see this becoming more integrated with time. Drink till 2022. 89+ — 9 years ago

Cuvée Family Reserve Skale Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

very good Czech wine but not a lot of complexity — 9 years ago

Vino z Czech

Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

From a little research, it appears this bottle is actually a grape that's a cross between Cabernet Franc and Zweigelt (i know, be still your beating heart). It was perfect with the Slovak food at the Riverside Restaurant in the Chicago suburbs. The wine featured a berry forward nose, with deep earth notes underneath, a balanced tannin to acid structure, and a touch of herbaceousness. — 10 years ago

Milan Nestarec

Youngster Pinot Grigio 2017

Milan Nestarec Youngster Pinot Grigio 2017. Such an interesting wine! A lot of lime (as the label might convey), orange, roundness but still light bodied. A lot of acidity and minerality. Tastes like limestone and key west via a czech’s interpretation. — 7 years ago

Richard Stavek

Mlady Boček 2015
