Fine Old Rare Sherry Palo Cortado de Jerez 1/50 Vides Jerez-Xérès-Sherry Palomino Fino

Tip top quality. Dark and dirty tones on the nose lead to an eyeopening showcase of depth of flavor carried with such grace and softness. Pure artistry and craftmanship. Homerun, slamdunk, hole in one. — 10 years ago

Mendocino County Zinfandel 2012

Lovely passion fruit pomegranate bouquet. Smooth. Tannins on the tip of the tongue that do a salsa dance the rest of the way back to a bolder, smooth finish. — 10 years ago

Danza Del Sol

Sauvignon Blanc 2011

First wine of the day and it's light and fruity with the tannins and hints of grapefruit that lad on the tip of your tongue. A very light and refreshing wine. — 11 years ago

Chenin Blanc 2008

I have been liking the Chenin grape for a number of years, but mostly from the Loire Valley of France particularly the area around Vouvray. I thought I would venture to the southern tip of Africa to try the Chenin Blanc of this region. The South African Chenin has the typical straw color and the nose is of good fruit, honeydew melon, lemon, and mineral. At first taste there is a good sharp acidity and citrus on the tongue. The flavors last a good long time on the palate. This wine is well balanced with wet rocks and a metallic taste on the backend. This is a good serviceable wine. — 12 years ago
