Poivre et Sol St. Joseph Syrah 2021

Between peppery black fruits and intense mineral notes. Freshness and power. Can age 2 years to develop some aromatic reliefs.

Entre fruits noirs poivrés et notes minérales intenses. Fraîcheur et puissance. Peut vieillir 2 ans pour développer quelques reliefs aromatiques.

A CASTILLA classic blend. A bit too much vanilla but when it opens up there is structure and plenty of ripe fruit. For serious red wine drinkers. — 8 years ago

Domaine La Grange Tiphaine

Clef de Sol Montlouis-sur-Loire Chenin Blanc

2018 vintage. A little richer than last vintage which was absolutely incredible. May need some time, but lacking a bit of that electric acidity and minerality. Still great — 6 years ago

Verum

Alto Valle del Rio Negro Pinot Noir 2014

Medium light body. Plum red color. Complex medium plus nose with tons of mushroom and earthy musk. Old world inspired burgundy style with dark cherries. Low alcohol. Good tanin structure. Balanced tight finish. Light mouthfeel. Not too much fruit. More earthy vegetable but not overpowering. Medium low acid. Would pair great with food. — 9 years ago

Aperture

Del Rio Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

9.4

@Delectable Wine this is the Aperture Cellars Del Rio Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon.

Brand new release (3/6) and inaugural bottling from Aperture Cellars and Jesse Katz.
Super dark purple in appearance. A bit of iron on the nose with notes of black berries, cigar box and baking spices. Heavy tannins (7/10) and full bodied. Rich and voluptuous palate with baking spices, blueberries, cassis, anise and crushed gravel. Long and lingering finish. Drink till 2036. (94+)

First time trying these Single Vineyard Cabernets by Jesse Katz and boy were we in for a treat. This is the inaugural bottling of their Del Rio Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon which is made up of 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. If aged like the Oliver Ranch Vineyard then it is aged for 20 months in 70% new French oak barrels. This will only improve with age.

$$$ - Sample provided by the winery. Release price is $95.00.
