Cluster Riesling, 12% alc., $14.99: Another one of Sean’s special projects, and my favorite of the CGT Rieslings, this pale straw colored wine was made from hand selected grape clusters pressed whole without destemming or crushing, which then underwent a very cool (42º F) fermentation to draw the process out. Off dry, at under 1% residual sugar, it dishes out rich, generous red and green apple flavors and aromas shaded with a hint o’ lime and good minerality; it’s a bit more than medium bodied, with good weight and beautiful concentration. I love this wine. Find this wine — 10 years ago

Really nice high altitude Pinot from Argentina. Tons of cranberry and tart red fruit with high acidity. The Michellini bros are crushing it with all their different projects in and around Mendoza. — 10 years ago

Very tasty 07 Spring Mountain Cabernet. Aaron Potts own label, you may also know some of his other consulting projects like Quintessa, Blackbird, Bello. This is dense and concentrated, loaded with dark fruits, spices, coffee and chocolate. Rich and Voluptuous all the way through. — 12 years ago

Took a trip to CA to visit my daughter & taste some great wines I cannot readily get back east. We visited AuBonClimat, and I was introduced to some of Jim Clendenen’s, projects of passion, his CFV 2014 Aligoté. Straw yellow with stone fruit and light floral aromas. The wine was aged for 10 months on older French oak. On the palate, pear and peach flavors with lemony nuances, slightly tart with a mineral elegance. On the medium finish slight oak tones are present ending with liberal minerality. Very nice! — 10 years ago

We decided to go for a 'uuuuuge wine for debate no.3. Decanted one hour--thin and hot on initial tasting, fascinating to see how the elements come together clicking and whirring. Deep purple with some gradation at the rim. Herbal/slate/cherry nose. Flavor profile holds true with the nose, herbal approach, plum, stones, amazingly astringent tannic finish, all imbued with heat. Perfect with lamb. This should drink well through the first Hillary Clinton administration and beyond. — 10 years ago

The 2013 David Arthur Chardonnay Napa Valley is a slight green-golden hue offers bright and illuminated aromas of kiwi, Asian pear and Golden delicious apple, followed by white peach, citrus blossom and light hints of toasted almonds. The palate is soft, plush and full throttle with layers of citrus, candied apple, poached pear. The finish projects a subtle minerality. #davidarthur #chardonnay #napa #winelover #winespectrum #wine #wino #vino #cheers #instawine — 10 years ago

Pretty medium cherry red. The bouquet really projects from this wine with a complex array of forest floor, sappy blackberry and just a hint of gaminess. There is an appealing softness to this wine that comes without sacrificing complexity - delicious and just enough acidity to pair well with a diverse array of foods. Medium body, Elegant, long finish. This is a marvelous, user-friendly wine — 11 years ago
