Sandlands

San Benito County Mataro 2017

Oh snap! My first time trying one of the 2017 Mataro’s from Sandlands and this San Benito County is fantastic! Beautiful, pure, fresh plums and other dark cherry with black pepper and other spices. It has an almost ferrous characteristic about it that I find quite charming. Lots of tannin and acid so let this be a note to those who are holding these in their cellar: just wait. This should be killer by 2022 but it’s already pretty exciting to drink. — 6 years ago

Giornata

Ramato Pinot Grigio Rosé 2015

This delicious, delicious wine is actually an orange Pinot Grigio, although it looks like a cloudy rosé. It's unfiltered and unrefined, and it tastes like an irresistible summer punch that you can't stop drinking, with notes of strawberry, apricot, and lime. A hint of nuttiness rounds it out, and it's just the right amount of sweet (not too much); it's balanced, clean, and I'll be drinking it alllll summer long. 😍 — 8 years ago

Bishop's Peak

Talley Vineyards Pinot Noir 2022

OH SO good. And for a very reasonable price in the 20’s. A spicy rendition, showing clove, white pepper and black tea on the nose (on top of to-be-expected-but-not-unwanted) of ripe red cherry. The palate brings in more green notes, contrasting the ripe fruit and fruitcake spices, but the acid is vibrant, and the tannins are scarcely there—this is a smooth, smooth glass of goodness. — a year ago

Wolff Vineyards

Teroldego 2014

From the winery:
“Our Estate produced Teroldego is a rarely grown grape in the U.S. originating from the Northern Italian Tyrolean area of Trentino-Alto Adige. This big and rich inky dark red wine is lively, exhibits fruity intriguing flavors of dark berry, aromatic wood spice with a finish of structured tannins and bright acidity. Vinified and fermented in techniques similar to our Syrah this Teroldego is aged in 25% new American oak. The alcohol content is 14.2%. “ $36.00 I tasted the 2014 and it was a big & rich wine, excellent after cellaring 7 years.

Flying Goat Cellars

Salisbury Vineyards Pinot Noir 2013

Like the label suggest this was a very fun wine. Smelling strongly of herbs and green vegetables it had a very light and simple taste to it. Strong enough to hold up against aged Gouda and a spinach salad. Delicious and in my opinion a great value. — 5 years ago

Aubaine Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

Good Pinot. The fruit tasted a little cooked, there wasn't much complexity, and the acidity had really faded. I expected more from LWC, especially in a great vintage. — 8 years ago
