Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Wow. Big fan of this Cab. It’s robust, but not overbearing. Great red fruits, but not jammy or “sweet”. This is a great stand alone red or great with some dark chocolate. — 5 days ago

Calleri Vineyard Negrette 2013

Dark with a slightest of rusty-brown edge on the deep maroon center. Hint of funk. Cooked plum fruits and fresh herbal stuff. Flavors are very ‘winey’. Apple- black berry baked dessert with a hint of chocolate mint. Tannins are tongue dry. This has some character. Fleshy. Rustic. Fun. Not sure what the standard for Negrette is, but this is an interesting bottle of unfamiliar wine. — a month ago

San Antonio Winery

Cardinale American Sweet Red Blend

Sweet wines are normally not my favorite but I wanted to try this and expand my palate and I wasn’t disappointed 🙂 it has a nice flavor and is not bubbling at all. A good wine for a great price point which balances out the table. — 2 months ago

Slightly tannin at end. Blueberry taste? Pairs very well with any garlic dish or dark chocolate — 4 months ago

Force of Nature Red Blend 2020

Cassis, black cherries, and graphite on the nose; medium acidity; medium plus tannins; tastes like blackberries, and black plums. Probably a crowd pleaser. I like it. — a month ago

San Saba Vineyard Syrah 2019

Rich, exciting nose shows Walla Walla-like notes of fire pit, roasted root vegetables, and dark-skinned mountain berries. Dark, soft, and rich in the mouth. Low acidity. Flavors are quite savory and chewy, with a lot of smoky mineral notes. There’s also quite a whack of jammy fruit that is a little on the simple side. For a little over $20 (if I recall correctly) from Garagiste, it’s a good value. — 2 months ago
