Upper Picnic Block Spring Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014

Clear cherry color with earthy notes of cherry and blackberry. Moderately high in alcohol (14.1%) which comes through on the palate but excellent with baked salmon. — 6 years ago

Imagery Estate Winery

Upper Ridge Vineyard Lagrein 2014

Absolutely delicious. Prefect pair for grilled pork, similar to a dryer Zinfandel. Reasonably full bodied but not so big as to demand a big steak. — 8 years ago

Sequoia Grove

Winemaker Series Rutherford Bench Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon

A stunner. Opened with that rustic cab smell. Not sure what lies beneath that initial nose. And then just pure explosive goodness in the glass. Black fruit, swirling with brown fruit in every sip. Lingering finish made for a wonderful moment or two. — 6 years ago
