Tenuta San Guido
Bolgheri Sassicaia Cabernet Sauvignon Cabernet Franc 2008
So... My dear friend Joe O stops by with the family... Can't believe how good this "Stoney Earth" is... Rothschild must have known something giving The Marcheses his vines... Maybe I should have waited a decade more to drink, but for what? Family, dear friends, great wine... I know Haupt is staring down and smiling... Only Limmer with us, would have made it better... — 12 years ago
Domaine des Roches Neuves (Thierry Germain)
La Marginale Saumur-Champigny Cabernet Franc 2012
Vibrant red fruits and lead, spice and licorice. Very very dry from the tannin and high acid but once it settles in it was real tasty. Stoney finish. — 11 years ago
Gilbert Picq et Ses Fils
Chablis Chardonnay
Long stoney slate nose. Light floral. Layers upon layers of stone and river rock on the pallet. Unending and long finish. Relishing this one at Mattie's Tavern in Los Olivos. The food is outrageous. Grilled Avocado, ponzu, wasabi. Done. — 11 years ago
Edmond Vatan
Clos La Néore Sancerre Sauvignon Blanc 2011
A completely different experience than '10, rounder, but much lighter than the '09. Tons of mint and a beautiful texture with the classic Vatan stoney minerality. Won't last as long as '08-'10 but really good for early drinking. — 13 years ago
Campogiovanni (San Felice)
Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese
Stoney. Woodsy. Herby. Tannic. Nice! — 11 years ago
Habit Wine Company
Jurassic Park Vineyard Chenin Blanc 2013
It was born as a heavy weight Jurassic indeed, tidal waves of flavor stoney fruit as hell, fresh young white peach pith, with clarified butter accents , quince paste texture, baked golden apple skins! Lemon chiffon cake dry backside, it lures me in paired well w/
Ahi , but might pair better with cake or lighter fish barramundi or tilefish — 11 years ago

Matté
Manager The Wine Cellars
Weighty, meaty, smoky, mineral nose with underripe pineapple skin and green mango, burnt golden syrup, grilled pineapple & plantain or sugar cain.
Palate has a real bottom heavy weight, this is wine with a lot of mineral intensity and stoney depth along aniseed infused Asian pear, stony mineral finish, long with great depth — 11 years ago
