Revisiting an old friend. The ‘19 Merlot doesn’t disappoint. Keenan is always solid. Layers of red fruit, long finish. Nice acidity. — 2 months ago

2024/2/13. This is multifaceted, with different elements emerging and submerging repeatedly over dinner. By turns firm and earthy, young and gangly with a touch of oak showing, and wildly aromatic, as is typical for young Chevillon wines. This Cailles in particular showed strawberry and watermelon coulis, cherry, spices such as cardamom and sweet game. On the palate it’s fleshy, broad and on the low side in acid, but that’s relative - though still tannic and a bit awkward, it’s balanced and enjoyable — 3 months ago

Royal St. Robert Cuvee named in honor of Dante and Carlo Mondavi's grandfather who taught them to be committed to excellence. Medium Ruby color with layered aromas of fresh berry fruits with floral and smoky spice notes. On the palate flavors of strawberry and raspberry with cigar box, oak, tea, citrus and herb floral notes. Well balanced, savory fine tannins, long finish ending with oaky earthy notes. Very nice! — 4 months ago

One more example of why I obsess over 1991 California cabs. Your nose is greeted with the whiff of an antique furniture store that soon gives way to red fruit, cedar and earth. The first thing you notice when you start to drink this gem is the vibrant acidity. The palate follows the nose only to be joined by slow resolving tannins. You cannot ask for a more graceful package. — 5 months ago

Just a lovely zin. For the price a great wine with a steak. Very forward and mouth filling, yet balanced. Just plain tasty. — 3 months ago

This was juicy but not too much of a fruit bomb. Layers of strawberries and cherries with a subtle earthiness. Mineral driven palate complemented by great fruit on the medium plus palate. 30+ second finish. Wish I had another. — 4 months ago

2008. This rounded out nicely after ~5 hours in the decanter. Dark fruits and spice with a little more acidity than I was expecting. Paired well with a rack of lamb. — 4 months ago
