Wellington Vineyards

Meeks Hilltop Ranch Zinfandel 2009

2009 - front to finish...starts with cranberry notes infused with hints of vanilla and a cool sprinkle of herbs (perhaps pine, spruce or juniper?) that ends with a smooth diminishing. — 9 years ago

Chavignol Sancerre Pinot Noir Rosé 2014

2014 subtle and appealing fruit and floral aromas with a hint of vanilla bean and a sprinkle of fresh herbs. Nicely balanced and refreshing. Longish. — 10 years ago

Clos La Néore Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2009

Would love to stock this in the cellar. I'm a huge Sancerre lover. Enough acidity to spank someone with and minerality to sprinkle like fairy dust. Amazing wine. — 11 years ago

Margerum

Santa Barbara County Grenache 2012

Make a reduction of dark plums, raspberries and strawberries, now make a jam/jelly out of that somehow. Liquify that and sprinkle a touch of cinnamon sugar and black pepper on top. Thats what this tastes and smells like. Its awesome. Super long finish. — 10 years ago

The “now make a jam/jelly out of that” comment was exactly what I wanted to say but couldn’t find the words to do so. So accurate, thank you!

"La Cueille" Bugey-Cerdon Sparkling Gamay Poulsard

This is great stuff on a hot day. A sprinkle of sweetness, pours bright pink/red, it's a damn good guzzler! — 10 years ago

Côtes du Jura Chardonnay 2009

Underripe redcurrant, cranberry, just a touch of cellar funk. Body is thin, acidity high, with some puckering tannins - might be too austere for some, but I love this profile. I would be curious in trying this with a bit more age, say 10-20 years. I’m impressed, bright fruit without excessive funk and sprinkle of tannins, could be a great wine with a bit more age. — 11 years ago

Spirale Passerillé à l'Ancienne Savagnin 2010

Mahogany gold, beeswax, lemon honey, sweet, lusciously sweet, but not cloying because of good acidity; treacle, honeycomb, pain d'épice, cinnamon with a sprinkle of orange peel.
A sweet treat from a fine Jura producer.
