Hanzell Vineyards
Sebella Sonoma County Chardonnay 2013
Lotta fruit on the nose; suspect adding fruit from other vineyards, reducing oak regime and cutting cost of wine. A good wine, but not as good as previous vintages. More about fruit than nuance. — 9 years ago

Ygnacia Los Carneros Pinot Noir
Concentrated, yet fresh making it very Carneros. Look forward to the evolution as this wine has serious aging potential. — 9 years ago
Donelan
Cuvée Keltie Sonoma County Syrah 2010
Charles had this 8 years ago
Michael Mondavi Family
Animo Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2011
The Michael Mondavi wines are always well made, pleasurable and, most importantly, balanced and restrained. This wine has a richness with velvet tannins and good focus. We will drink the entire bottle. And perhaps another. — 9 years ago
Failla
Occidental Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir 2011
Execellent wine.... Cooler vintage that was opened 7 years too early, however the wine is tasting fantastic. Charm, tense and clearly displays vineyard pedigree. — 9 years ago
Hanzell Vineyards
Sebella Sonoma Valley Chardonnay 2012
I like this wine a lot. Subtle, integrated oak, focused, textured and not overly concentrated/sweet. — 9 years ago

The 2014 provides a glimpse into how lucky am I to have worked with incredible vineyards in my short career. Textured, concentrated and fresh. Yes, fresh. Cab should be fresh. — 8 years ago
