All Blocks Tensley Vineyards Red Blend 2022

2022 vintage. Full/heavy body. Jammy and juicy with just enough dusty tannins throughout to land the plane without incident. This'll be dynamite with anything off the grill. 3.25.24. — 22 days ago

Thea's Selection Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2018

Rich, deep pinot from Willamette. Nice tension. Reminds me of Tensley, for some reason. Probably because of its luscious fruit. Gift wine. — 2 years ago

Colson Canyon Vineyard Syrah 2011

This was our 3L for the Christmas party - excellent Syrah, incredibly long tail to it, a little sparkly up front. Was a hit with the guests but I thought fell just short of the Adelaida last year — 4 months ago

Fundamental Central Coast Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Delectable Wine
9.0

The 2019 Cabernet Sauvignon is inky and voluptuous. It hits the palate with blackberry jam, chocolate, licorice and spice. I can't think of a California Cabernet that delivers this much quality for the money. Black cherry fruit, tobacco and cedar abound. $18.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, November 2021) — 2 years ago

I agree completely with this rating and review. I like that this wine doesn’t insult the wine lover with over the top oak add-ons and tannins to make a chocolate milk wine but rather has created a smooth and honest California Cabernet.
