Gap's Crown Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

I owe my love of Sonoma Pinot to Sean Capiaux. In evaluating this bottle, if I set those sentiments aside, I’m still hit by the excellence of Gap’s Crown. This is a big wine, no doubt, but it’s grace that first comes to mind. The fruit’s ripeness is balanced with shocking depth, nose to tail. Candied red fruits, blue fruits, and smoke, oversimplify a melange of fruit and umami. ABV is the one flaw, for me. It’s hot. — 6 years ago

Babrak Vineyard Merlot Cabernet Franc 2014

Vinca minor babrak vineyard merlot/cab franc. 2014. Just a ton of wet stone, dried cranberries, and pepper. Aftertaste has a jolly rancher cherry quality. Interested to see how this evolves overnight. — 8 years ago

Smells blue, like the color of a washed blueberry. Balances huge power and blue fruit with a clean cut. Not gloppy at all. — 9 years ago
