Weston hosted Friday group today and was it definitely a can’t miss tasting. Wow! Absolutely knocked it out of the park with heavy hitter after heavy hitter. Similar to Wednesday group, all wines are tasted blind.

I really enjoy Ritchie chards, and was actually able to blindly guess this was from Ritchie vineyard. I always get a nuttiness and waxy finish from this vineyard. Happens every time. Bigger texture. You aren’t mistaking this for anything other than Cali chard, and it will almost always be from a top producer. — 7 years ago

For 12 bucks, this is an awesome value wine. Solid and fruity, but also versatile enough to drink with just about anything you can dish up (or even by itself). — 11 years ago

Damn good but still way young...layered with roasted earth, black currant and blackberry compote and a good bit of smoke. Warm year so maybe a bit more clunky than other vintages but Dominus is really fabulous!! One of the few Napa wines I really like with serious age....half hour in decanter and candied cherries and red fruits coming out...enjoying this one! — 9 years ago

Great, more to the earthy side but still showing dark berries. Clearly is drinkable sooner than any other Guigal. Acidity was perfect. — 10 years ago

Super Tuscan at its finest. Cab elements were in the forefront and the other varietals were a strong supporting cast. Lots of $$$ but worth it at least once or twice. Especially vs Antinori... — 10 years ago

Our other Thanksgiving wine. A bit dried out, but a lovely bouquet. Good cork. Of the recent Leovilles, I prefer the 78 Barton, and next the 81 Las Cases. This comes in third, but not shabby at all! — 8 years ago

No other Rhone varietal compares to Chave Hermitage Rouge for me. Ethereal depth and character. A good deal more youthful than the '04 I had a few months back. — 8 years ago

An earth driven nose with overtones of garrigue. This wine was terroir driven vs fruit driven. Compared to the other vintages I found this wine benefited the least from air. — 10 years ago

1988 Insignia - great after all these years. This bottle survived especially well - the other 88s had lost their luster, but this one still has it together. — 10 years ago
