A very nice #oldworld style of #melondborgogne The nose had nice intensity and restraint showing flowers, lemon, apples, and biscuit. The palate was ripe and rich but balanced well with refreshing acidity. Med complexity with wet stone, flowers, yellow pear and Meyer lemon. Yum! #lieuxdit #santabarbara #biennacido #california #loirevalley #muscadet #ctbucklinwine — 9 years ago

Heading to an #oldworld style with some characteristics of good quality #burgundy Med + intensity on the nose with sweet red and black fruit. Great complexity on the nose as well as the palate with delicious spice and mineral notes. The structure was firm but refined and higher alcohol was felt. The length was good. #littorai #sonomacoast #pinotnoir #california #newworld #ctbucklinwine — 10 years ago

You can't do nothing wrong with wine from Austria.

@Dennis P. The class teaches a tasting method that can be applied consistently to assess different wines. I’m trying to adopt most of the steps and am documenting the results here 😊

Antica (Antinori)

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

I loved this #oldworld #newworld blend to create a marvelous #newcalifornia obvious long maceration with deep ruby color, intense primary aromas of dark cherries, cassis, mint and capsicum, secondary of dark chocolate and tertiary of sage or ash. The tannins are very soft and the oak and alcohol are very balanced and integrated with the whole of the wine. Can age. Drink now until 2030 — 9 years ago

Aalto

Deep purple hue with some garnet. Extraction on the glass and medium-plus tearing.

Also strong tannins with anise and dusty leather notes on the palate.

In much better condition than I thought it would be and not at all representative of the #vintage1997 On the leaner side some with elements of the #oldworld Well balanced and nice complexity. Eucalyptus, mint, bell pepper, graphite, and dark fruit dominated. Lively and enjoyable finish.

White Rock Vineyards

Napa Valley Claret Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2011

Tucked at the base of Napa's Stag's Leap range, White Rock Vineyards feels suspended in time. The land is rugged with white volcanic soil, the winery niches filled with bottles for cave-aging, and the wines #oldworld in approach and style. With dark, juicy fruit balanced by #savory spices and a strong mineral core, this #Claret effortlessly straddles seriousness and gulpability. — 11 years ago
