Spottswoode

Family Estate Grown St. Helena Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

Youthful, yet starting to show a bit of age. Nose is youthful blackberry with pepper.... not a lot of sign of age just by the nose alone. Entry is a black cherry that has been dusted in sweeter tobacco. Iodine. A hint of mint to the middle and finish. I am amazed at the amount of tannin that is still on this bottle. This is a very nice balance of old and young. In a very good spot. Top 3. — 5 years ago

Can’t believe this was just now my first Spottswoode. Young! Chalky. Cardamom. Saddle leather, young and underripe fruits that will go forever. Cedar, plum, savory herbs de Provence, and baked fig finish. Same rating as the Progeny/Haber but it got there differently. Would love to try older vintages of this.

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 2007

I can see the quality here and am going to rate it as such, but I couldn't get past the nose which was a combination of deer piss and manure. The taste made up for the smell, but gawd dayum that nose. — 7 years ago

Château d'Yquem

Sauternes Sémillon-Sauvignon Blanc Blend 1998

Honey and melon and mint undertones. Unusual d'Yquem - missing the smooth creaminess I am accustomed to. Great but different. — 10 years ago

Continuum

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2010

I am a fan of Continuum. The 2010 is intense and rich with red fruits, blackcurrent and mocha. There's terrific energy to this wine and although a little tight - still quite young and from magnum - it was a treat to taste. — 7 years ago

Caymus Vineyards

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Even with the 2014 vintage, I am supremely happy. Plum/blueberry maybe with some chocolate hints. A very soft finish and a little sweeter than many big cabs. Well done. — 7 years ago

Château Mouton Rothschild

Pauillac Red Bordeaux Blend

Who am I to criticize a bottle of Mouton Rothschild? Amazing, no doubt. But didn't feel balanced. Great funk on the nose. High acidity and overall mild. — 8 years ago

Belle Glos

Meiomi Pinot Noir 2011

I have had the meiomi 2011 Pinot on multiple occasions and it has now become my go to wine. I was looking for a cheaper alternative to the Caymus and the sommelier at our local Safeway recommended this wine. The Meiomi doesn't taste like your typical light Pinot. It is very full in flavor, rich, and has a smooth finish. All in all this my go to everyday wine if I am not feeling adventurous to try something new. — 9 years ago

Château Rayas

Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend 1995

At this stage of development a cross between the '90 and '89.
I am not qualified to judge what vintage it will eventually resemble but it does not matter this is great and will only be better with time.

Stein Erste Lage Grüner Veltliner 2011

These are Ott Gruners are exotically rich and textured, structured with actual tannins and whopping acidity, and possess incredible flavors ranging from tropical fruits to citrus, along with intense minority. Really unique among Gruners, these are the most fascinating white wines I've had in some time. This '11 is more structured, while the 12 is richer and even more textured. — 10 years ago
