Very successful #newworld #nebbiolo Pale red. Med + intensity and complexity showing flowers, bright red, leather, and mushrooms. Firm and balanced structure. Great tension and complexity. Med finish that warmed up the throat. Drinking so well now but should age well for a few more years. #palmina #santabarbara #california #usa #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
Vintage 2014 / very broad smell with lots of expressions. Tasted blind only one taster @Berry Marinussen recognised #pinotnoir. Frivolous and exciting. Nice bitters. #usa — 5 years ago
Vintage 2014 - Smooth, I think it's a crowd pleaser. Has some spicyness, dome cherries, warm, sultry. #zinfandel #usa #coppola — 6 years ago
Wound up and young. Med + intensity with good complexity. Flowers, allspice, black and blue fruit. The palate was bright and well structured with firm tannins. Decent finish of cocoa and heat Needs time. #stolpmanvineyards #syrah #santabarbara #california #usa #ballardcanyon #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
Med intensity and complexity on a restrained nose. Fresh orchard fruit and flowers. The palate is where this wine really shows off. Great complexity mixed with depth, power, and restraint. Sweet orchard fruit, Meyer lemon, hazelnut, and flowers. Great balance and length. #wenzlauvienyards #santabarbara #santaritahills #chardonnay #california #usa #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago
Well balanced and tight nit at first. Great complexity and length. The bottle fell apart by hour 2 though becoming very awkward. #beauxfreres #willamettevalley #pinotnoir #robertparker #oregon #usa #ctbucklinwine — 6 years ago
Med intensity and complexity with an earthy nose. Almost a brett type thing going on, but not brett. Flowers, just ripened red cherries, orange, herbs. Broad with some heat on palate. Grainy tannins. Weight felt. Present acid. Med finish. #walterscott #willamette #pinotnoir #oregon #usa #ctbucklinwine — 7 years ago

1996 Calera Jensen Mt. Harlem Pinot Noir
Our New Year’s Eve wine is 1996 Calera Jensen Mt. Harlen Pinot Noir. The oxidation is prevalent. After 25 years, the wine has certainly passed its prime, but it is fun enough to enjoy. Goodbye 2021.
大晦日、2021年最後のワインは、1996年Calera Jensen Mt. Harlen Pinot Noir。酸化はだいぶ進んでいる。25年の時を経て、確かに飲み頃を過ぎてはいるが、十分に楽しめるワイン。 2021年よ、さよなら。
