Casa Barranca

Thompson Vineyard Syrah 2010

Raspberries and rustic toned down leather qualities. Not much to say here and that's a good thing I feel. Winemaker here is obviously staying humble to the origins. Wouldn't like this any other way. — 9 years ago

Monthly WTF wine group meet up. No true theme this month. Some wines tasted blind.

Tasted blind. Surprised this was a Zin...and only a few years old. Light in color. Not jammy or peppery. Medium acidity. Red, blue and black ripe fruits and cedar. Surprised it was 15.5 too. Also an old graham cracker note on the finish. Old school Zin. I called it older Spanish Tempranillo. Thanks

Russian River Valley Pinot Noir 2013

Dana Thompson had the perfect description on Delectable of this wine--it's the perfect combo of Burgundy and Napa Pinot... earth, must, and fruit. Very enjoyable. — 7 years ago

Chardonnay

1996 ! Absolutely remarkable. Round flavors of dried apricots, gooseberry and a little cinnamon. Still has a burst of acid and a long finish with a hint of almond (from the natural oxidation). Drink now ... It's hold it a little longer! — 8 years ago

A little Brett up front but tasteful. So light and elegant but reminds you who it is- idk Nucky Thompson? The red berries just glide. Another success — 5 years ago

9.0

You can feel the space that used to be filled with fruit, which for me is a good thing. More open room for this to spread out into and reveal the floral, herbal and honeyed notes that were formerly steamrolled over. A touch of oxidation starting to creep in, but for now that's a welcome addition to the whole. — 9 years ago
