Dark currants and ripe black plums, still a bit tannic in the finish, medium-long finish, nice Napa Cabernet with our steak! — 2 days ago

Lovely older Bandol, tree bark, redfruits, still some solid structure in this one, long, lingering finish. — 18 days ago

Really lovely Cot/Cabernet Franc blend, showing some brett aromatically and up front on the palate, dark color, needs aging (10+ years), lovely wine!!! — 19 days ago

OK, this is 50+ year old Ramisco from Collares (note old spelling with 2 “ll”), grown in the SAND west of Lisbon, leather, earthy, just amazingly complex, balanced, with an incredible finish, a hand-carried bottle purchased at the winery 1 year ago, no way one smells and tastes this incredible Ramisco and (blind) would guess it’s a 1969 vintage, just incredible!!! — 21 days ago

Lovely older Cal Cabernet, still has some tannic structure, but mature fruit underneath makes it nicely drinkable with a good steak!! — 13 days ago

This is actually the Unti Vineyard Syrah. Meaty, leathery, old Syrah aromas with a healthy dose of brett that adds some nice complexity, medium-long finish, very good. — 14 days ago

Classic La Miguoa aromas of a little bit of brett, pine, and nice forest floor aromas, a little brett shows on palate, medium-long finish, lovely juice!! — 19 days ago

Good, not great, Cote Rotie, I think this still needs time in the cellar, not a WOW wine. — 19 days ago
