Horseshoe Vineyard Pinot Noir 2012

I believe these are lower in alcohol and I dig the effort at restraint, but there was some dormancy in this bottle. Muted fruit, grainy tight tannin. Herbs and earth predominate now. I think this will improve and blossom but it’s a little one note at this point. — 8 years ago

I've been wondering about that label. Haven't tried it yet. Thanks for the info.

The '12 'shoe is still infantile. To use an extremely tired analogy (but one the owner will use reluctantly) you wouldn't open you Grand Cru after just a few yrs in bottle. These progress at a glacial pace. If you want a better early drinker the San Mateo or Anderson Valley appellation blends drink well now, even the Bearwallow from that same vintage is more open for business. In any case decant these for several hours.

That may be true, but I’ve had wines from ‘07 and ‘08 that were similarly vapid. I’m not seeing the evolution at any point.

2013 Ridge Monte Bello Chardonnay. HB w MnD and J&D B. We drank this after, but in comp to the 2013 Peter Michael Point Rouge Chardonnay and this surprised us as the winner, especially since K and I love the Peter Michael Chardonnay so much. J really preferred this wine so much he was thinking abt stocking some of this wine himself. This wine was creamy and had much more tropical fruit, plus oak. Delicious and we really, really enjoyed this wine! — 9 years ago

Monte Bello Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 1985

Tried the '90 recently, spoke of how amazing a producer of Californian Cabernet it is, but just needed a little more time, this '85 is well & truly on point, everything is in balance, there's fruit intensity yes, but the development/complexity/layers are really shining through, outstanding stuff. — 8 years ago

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

Wow! Zesty, got straight up dryed lemongrass with lemon juice, pith and a hard under ripe apricot and pith, and wild white flowers, that's pours acid all over your tongue that cascades with waves of minerality, the weight, the texture, the acid, so on point.
Sure to be a benchmark.

Nice evolution at this point. Lots of dark cherries, cherries, strawberries, blackberries, good spice, dry crushed rocks, gritty volcanic minerals, chewy leather, tobacco, graphite, dry and fresh florals. Good acidity, just a touch hot, the length, tension, structure and balance is pretty good. Finishes ripe, fresh to slightly dry tannins. — 7 years ago

Alpine Vineyard Pinot Noir 2008

Big, dark-fruited with some high tones of red and some white pepper, anise and meat to the point I thought it was cold climate Syrah at first. Over a day it warmed up, gave up some more candied notes. Layered, interesting, still quite firmly backboned. Give this some serious time. BTW no "smoke taint" to speak of — 8 years ago

Russian Standard

Vodka Platinum

This again is clearly not a wine it is however one of the best premier Russian Vodkas around by the way this product is from
St. Petersburg Russia

This Product is rightfully entitled
Russian Standard as it is derived from only the finest products found in Russia those being their Winter Harvest Wheat, from the Russian Steppes, The Glacial Waters of Lake Ladoga are used and Advanced Distillation Technology is used in the making of this product.

This is all done to ensure only the highest standards when making this Vodka the version I have posted here is the platinum version which by no means was cheap
However, it was still relatively reasonably priced.

On the bottle it is listed as being silver filtered I just take this to mean that it has been filtered numerous times to the point of a very high quality which would more than adequately explain its smoothness as there are to my knowledge at least two other versions of this Vodka there is a Regular Version, a Gold version and the Platinum Version I have listed here.

This Vodka is of Remarkable taste and amazing clarity. In all other ways that truly matter when crafting a great vodka this is one of the ones that is truly uncompromising which is what
has allowed this product to reach
its peak degree of greatness.
