Good Earth White Blend 2017

Very enjoyable blend. Can taste the Riesling and gewurz, the Vidal being filler. A nice simple wine to enjoy with different foods. In this case the wine is not the issue as it easily drinks with food. — 7 years ago

This was very elegant and exotic at the same time. The texture is amazing, and the aroma reminds me of banana cream pie. If this is what higher end WA state chard tastes like, count me in! — 10 years ago

Lillian Winery

California Syrah 2005

This is the '05 so-called "Blue Label" which isn't very blue, but I digress. I was a little rough on the last Lillian I opened, which I believe was the '06 regular bottling. It was a might underwhelming. This bottle has more highs than lows. Inky black color. Swirl the wine and you can't count the legs in the glass. Absolute knockout nose of licorice, spice and Dr Pepper. Best part of the experience for me. SO inviting. The downside is that the fruit is a little muted. Still some black fruit essence, however. And a bit hot on the finish. I guess I would still say it's best days are in the rear view mirror, but I'll hang on to a few to revisit somewhere down the road.

Rosso di Montalcino Sangiovese 2014

2014 was a step up for this estate's Rosso. The nose is distinctly Sangiovese where the sangio markers count, but there's a "sweet funk" that's eerily reminiscent of the Côtes de Nuits. A1 — 10 years ago

Mount Veeder Mondeuse

A Syrah-like Mondeuse. Aromatic, purplely (yes, purplely) with ripe fruit, though it’s the texture that’s earning it high marks. Someone on an earlier thread described it as “velour” (not in the matching-juicy-sweatsuit-circa-2004-tacky way, but in a blanket you want to wrap yourself in at the end of a satisfying day sort of way). A solid wine with which to toast to the happy occasion of having an old New York friend in town. Can’t remember the vintage. Matt? — 8 years ago
