Ruston Family Vineyards
Cuvée Simone Napa Valley Red Blend 2019
This beautiful cab dominant blend (15% merlot) promises to be one of their best vintages in a long while. Dark fruits with a depth of flavor uncharacteristic for an only slightly big medium-bodied wine. Playfully spicy with a good tannic core. This got better each day over a 5 day timeframe. This is gonna be a great wine in 5 years. — 3 years ago
San Giusto a Rentennano
Vin San Giusto White Blend 2012
The 2012 Vin San Giusto is incredibly refined. There is plenty of the richness that readers have come to expect from the Vin San Giusto, but at the same time, the 2012 is wonderfully precise and nuanced. Spicecake, tobacco, cedar and mint give the 2012 lovely aromatic complexity that gives the wine a remarkable sense of lightness for such a rich sweet wine. In a word: superb.

A bit of spritz that blew off. Also a fair amount of Brett but charming as hell — 8 years ago

Château Simone
Les Grands Carmes de Simone Vin de Pays des Bouches-du-Rhône Grenache Rosé Blend 2014
Winter rosé! Full, fresh, concentrated, juicy red berry fruit, bright acid, mineral and a bit of funk on the finish. Really tasty. Ok fine there's a rosé I like — 9 years ago

En Voiture Simone Régnié Gamay 2019
A Régnié which expresses itself on the side of black cherries, kirsch, or Plum Eau de vie. The nose is very expressive and counterbalances a very dry character in the mouth, almost salty. Aerial, accurate. To drink.
Note revised upwards, at D+1 because it held up admirably and even opened up to additional nuances. A sincere wine. Really well done.
Un Régnié qui s’exprime du côté des cerises noires, kirsch, ou encore Eau de vie de prune. Le nez est très expressif et contrebalance un caractère très sec en bouche, quasi salin. Aérien, précis. À boire.
Note revue à la hausse, à J+1 car il a admirablement tenu et s’est même ouvert sur des nuances supplémentaires. Un vin sincère. Vraiment bien fait. — 3 years ago

Syrah 2014
Bit of cranberry and under-ripe strawberry on the nose. Hint of rocks in the rain. Flavors are juicy and crisp. Very southern Rhône styled. Minerality and red pepper. Blood orange. Acids and tannins come together for a harmonious balance. Not a classic mushroom and berry Syrah, but very nice drinking foothill red. — 8 years ago

San Simone
Nexus Cabernet Sauvignon 2010
Awesome! Dry and mineral. Lingering notes of iron. Really opened nicely over the 2 hours. We had it in the decanter. Unfortunately I was working in my office while Tammy sat next to the decanter...... so my rating is challenged with the fact I had very little to taste 😳 — 9 years ago
