1985 Sassicaia. Second red wine at Redd Wood lunch w A, S, and K. This wine was perfect. Epic. We could not believe how perfect this wine was drinking. Thoroughly enjoyed it- it was enjoyable the way truffles are- hard to describe, but pleasing to all relevant senses. — 10 years ago

Not reconditioned and fully mature, this is has a delicate beauty right now. A little fragile, but mostly pure Cab Franc on the nose w/ a very nice silken texture. There's plenty of tannin, but the fruit is running out so drink up! — 11 years ago

1999 Gianfranco Soldera Riserva Brunello. Lunch at T w Roger S and BP. Drank alongside the '99 Insignia. Decanted this wine ~30 min. We think this was an off bottle. Thin, high acid, no finish. Too bad. — 9 years ago

A semi-sweet Washington Riesling. Peach and stone fruit on the nose. Very fruit forward and tingly on the tongue. Well balanced between dry and sweet with bursts of peaches, pear, apples, mineral and a subtle hint of orange peel. Probably one of my favorite Rieslings I've had so far. — 11 years ago

you better have port wine on your screen, and graham's is a big player, big in quality, though, as well!
never say "industrial" here.
qd malvedos is a sub vinery and allowed to make it's own vintage ports in years graham's doesn't declare.
this is a catch, really, if you are lucky enough to get it! — 10 years ago

Really unexpectedly trim and bright. Easy drinking w soft tannins and surprisingly bright light red and black fruits. I expected a much fuller, richer and more powerful wine for the vintage but it was absolutely lovely. — 12 years ago
