Addax

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2014

This, ladies and gentlemen, is what I call damn good wine. Got to enjoy this courtesy of Josh Peeples at his place, one of the winemakers alongside Russell Bevan. The Addax label is small production, led by those two, and the quality is as to be expected. Sourced from Gap's Crown. This is a cab lovers Pinot. It is dark ruby red, has fairly slow moving legs, and is all about the red and blue fruits. Tiny bit of mint. — 9 years ago

Skippy, seek out Etude's Hierloom. It's a Pinot, but often has the density close to a cab. Peirson Meyer is another that immediately comes to mind.

@TheSkip : Oh man, if you come across this, please try it. You will not be disappointed. I've been told their website should be up and running soon. Though I've not had the Heirloom @Ron R, I can attest that I've had some great Etude pinots, mainly because they are on the heavier side.

Sicilia Nerello Mascalese 2004

Left me a bit speechless...the restaurant didn't have the wine I wanted, so this was the substitute they suggested. Great call on their part! The body was light-medium, color was light and the nose was full of cherry. The wine drank like a rockstar after only being open for a few minutes. Funny thing, the somm told me three times that it's biodynamic, as if that was a bad thing. Great wine @ at great price of 30 euro!! — 10 years ago

40th Anniversary Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Lots of fruit as expected and a sweet streak in middle. Pretty good but a certain Belgian friend of mine might call it a fruit bomb — 11 years ago

Hard to rate at this point so rating on potential. Good structure that should age well. It felt wrong drinking it so young but wasn't my call. — 9 years ago

Kumeu River

Maté's Vineyard Chardonnay 2008

Big call, but here's to Kumeu River Maté's Vineyard being one of the best #chardonnay in the world! What a #wine! Bright, tight & focused at 8 years of age, with apple blossoms & cinnamon stick followed up by flinty, gun smoke, sun drenched slate tiles, & the faintest whisper of lemon curd on the nose, carrying me away to memories of my youth. Once upon the palate, it boogies to an electrophoretic humming of liquid energy, bringing life, happiness & joy with it. Sapid, sexy acids whirl about playfully, skipping to an extended denouement, combining its components into one, luxuriously wondrous whole. Love it so! — 9 years ago

Don't Call Me A Cab Virginia Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

Bright sour cherry nose with herbal notes. Refreshing and light on the palate with just a hint of sweetness. Blueberry and plum flavors are balanced by easy acidity and milk chocolate. The finish is medium in length with very smooth tannins. — 10 years ago
