Shut The Gate

Domaine Jamet

Côte-Rôtie Syrah 1998

From the Rata wine list in Queenstown. Label and capsule indicates it's a recent release from the Domaine. Opened, decanted and poured. Deep dark ruby. Opaque. Wow nose. Notes of blackberries, currant, cherry, smoke and anise. Velvet texture in the mouth. Tannins nicely resolved leaving lots of rich fruit; developing great secondary characteristics. Silky. Amazing right out of the gate and over 2 hours at the table. — 8 years ago

J.K.'s Scrumpy Orchard Gate Gold Hard Cider

My favorite cider. A sweeter cider but well balanced and slightly spicy for an overall great flavor profile. Their Saskatoon cider is great if you are looking for something a little sweeter and more unusual. — 10 years ago

An ideal growing season paired beautifully with our minimalist winemaking style to produce this Pinot. Rich hues of blueberry draw the eye, while lush dark stone fruits coat the palate. Velvety finish leaves you wanting more! — 11 years ago

Estate Sonoma County Pinot Noir 2012

Vanilla bean and just ripe date on the nose, the palate reflects the nose very well but there is a cherry cola effect that really sends it home. Can't wait to try in a few years! — 10 years ago

Château Lynch-Bages

Grand Cru Classé Pauillac Cabernet Sauvignon Blend

1986. Day 1 was charming out of the gate, then ultimately showed its oak and structure and a sort of pine quality. Preferred Haut-Batailley. Day 2 had sufficiently mellowed but still felt a little down the middle somehow. Cool side by side — 11 years ago

Monks Gate

Trinity Yamhill-Carlton Pinot Noir 2012

Selected from the "best of the best" barrels, our Trinity Reserve Pinot features our stellar 115 clone which elevates this vintage to new heights. All the lushness of the Classic 2012, with an added inner structure and spice on the palate. One for the table now, two for the cellar! — 11 years ago
