Hirsch Vineyards

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir 2022

13.2%. A perpetual favorite. This vintage seems more fruit driven compared to previous renditions. Quite dark. Cherries, raspberries, cranberries and some tea notes, well integrated tannins and dare I say “smooth” mouthfeel. Sadly/unfortunately in a different prize range compared to a decade ago. 75$ or so. Seems high to me. — a month ago

Dirty & Rowdy

Enz Vineyard Mourvèdre 2017

2017! Outstanding wine. Tasting great. So fresh but with some darker fruits. Stone, earth. So glad I was able to find some bottles to bring back the dirty and rowdy magic. Great wine — 3 months ago

Aequorea

Seafarer Pinot Noir 2023

Nose: hint elegant vegetal. Lovely perfume.

Palate: a tad vegetal. Spice. Some spice. Not super joyous. More fruit as opens.

Grapevine. $18 btg

San Benito County Mataro 2023

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a few hours. The 2023 San Benito County pours a deep ruby/purple with a near opaque core; medium viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of blackberries, black plum, black pepper, purple flowers, licorice, gravelly earth and a mix of cool and warm spices. On the palate the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Delicious stuff and a perennial favorite of mine. Drink now through 2043. — 4 months ago
