Red Willow Vineyard Chapel Block Syrah 2011

One of my very favorite Syrah vineyards on the planet. Nose of pepper and lavender. Massive and robust palate of plum, pepper and wet, dark earth. Silky with a long lasting finish. — 11 years ago

Some #delectable #PinotNoir from the #RussianRiver valley. Strawberry, red plum and red currant, cinnamon on the nose and palate. Definitely on the juicier side of pinot noir. — 11 years ago

I don't think it's possible to be more embarrassed!!! Lol. I told Alex Fishman the pictures on here of each of us need to be larger so old guys like me with bad eyes can actually SEE them.

Melville

Block M Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2011

Yea baby! I love Central Coast Pinot and this is a fantastic example. Big cherry and raspberry flavors. Hints of subtle spice, full bodied and jammy! If you don't like Melville then FU. — 12 years ago
