Bodegas Volver

Tarima Hill Old Vines Alicante Monastrell

Lovely translucent garnet.

Smells like a sweet honey sesame candy.

Soft, floral, pleasant mouthfeel of flower petals, vanilla bean. Straight shooter, focused and rich in flavor.

Great old world wine, full great wine with great wallet appeal.

Sante Arcangeli

Split Rail Vineyard Chardonnay 2014

I have trouble rating whites as high as reds, but this is a unique Chardonnay. Mint and citrus on the nose. It's taste is angular. Smokey on the palate. Not oaky. Not sweet. — 9 years ago

Le Trouble Fait Muscat Petit Grain

45 year old Muscat vines. Skin contact. Unfiltered. Fresh, bright, high acid. Tropical and floral notes, jasmine, star fruit, lychee and a little lemon juice. Killer pairing with salmon sashimi. — 10 years ago

Special Selection Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

The reason I fell in love with wine, popped my cherry or grape I should say. I was 19 and took this from my fathers stash, definitely got in trouble but it was worth it! — 9 years ago

Digioia-Royer

Les Groseilles Chambolle-Musigny 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2002

Really nice Chambolle here. If I'm having trouble putting my finger on the right words to describe it it's because it was in a really harmonious package here with no one element sticking out. This is an old-vine site for Digioia-Royer and it initially exhibited that material more through a thick-skinned tannic signature than through fruit seve, mostly because the fruit is so gentle. It has some dark undertones, a little blueberry or plum in a mostly red-fruited personality, along with a crushed stony element. — 10 years ago

Santa Barbara County Syrah 1998

Can't find my Ah-so (cue Bender) so I didn't stand a chance against this cork. The worm ended up drilling a hole straight through the middle, so had to strain through a coffee filter. Worth the trouble as this was a nice surprise. Tapenade nose, tar and still a hint of bacon. Nice showing for the basic County blend at 17+ years. Chose the location due a mountain lion sighting in the 'hood today. — 10 years ago

Savigny-lès-Beaune Pinot Noir 2012

Prune nose. Nice dark color. A micro producer. They have trouble now to get grapes as money flows into Burgundy they loose out. Beautiful wine 🍷 could use another 3 years or so. Cherry 🍒 cranberry touch of lemon 🍋 zest and chalk / really well done / this is ‘handmade’. Blows Bize and Pavelot the apparent benchmarks for Savigny out of the water. Amitié wines online has these or Meritage in Encinitas and a bunch of Michelin Star restaurants in SF. You can’t go wrong if you like his traditional style. — 8 years ago

I know Jason Berry the owner of Amitié Wines he is sharp. Usually i try all of his wines at his so called ‘Container Parties’ and they are all very good and sometimes outstanding.

Sine Qua Non

Turn the Whole Thing Upside Down Grenache 2009

WOTN in heavy fire. Beat out the XXL and five shooter. Definitely a 3-1 under dog in this fight but it gets the belt. 5 hr slow oxed then down the hatch. So polished, deep and dark.... Manfred is a mad scientist with this stuff. This is the wine that changes your perception of what great really can be. — 11 years ago
