☄️ Yes please. The missus says "Makes me want to eat and drink all night", I say floral, velvety and perfectly balanced. Either way, 👌. — 9 years ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

Decanted for at least 8 hours. Big primary blackberry, graphite, still tastes so young, the tannins have smoothed with the decant, and I enjoyed this. I just don't know where these are going to go from here. Im not sure if they're really supposed to go anywhere beyond where they are now honestly; i think these are meant to be drunk in their first decade, with two pushing it. — 10 years ago

B. Thieriot Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

13' Rivers- Marie B Thierlot. Thomas Brown is crushing it with everything he touches with his 2013's . 30 minute decanting. The color is golden. A full-bodied wine. Big front & middle palate.The nose is wow! On the palate I get peach , buttered popcorn, honeysuckle. A little vanilla-oak, which I don't mind in this particular wine. A bit heavy on the acidity. It will be BETTER with a little time! — 10 years ago

Single Vineyard Drover's Hut Chardonnay

Turns out, I like Chardonnays. I had it paired with scallops crudo. I perfect combination. It you think you don't like Chardonnays, try ones outside of the U.S. They are generally smoother and crisper than the American ones I've tried. This 2012 vintage of Nugan Chardonnay was delicious. It was fresh and a perfect beginning to a delicious meal. — 11 years ago

I am not a big Pinot person, but I make exceptions for Thomas Rivers Brown. Ridiculous nose, great finish. Was surprised to find this super hard to find bottle at DnD wine bar by the glass. — 12 years ago

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2016

Just received from Rivers, this is a new born baby. Already big and exuberant, but shows the scattered nature of early age. Delicious and certainly better in 1-3 years. — 8 years ago

Kanzler Vineyard Pinot Noir 2013

The last RM Pinot I tried was a 2012 - not that great, quite frankly, and I was just tasting some other nice bottles of Pinot so it was a nice surprise when I opened this and was blown away. So well balanced, not a big nose but just extraordinary finesse and balance. Great bottle of Pinot. — 11 years ago
