Hourglass
Blueline Estate Cabernet Franc 2015
Hmmm… this is complex, rich, layered, dark color, and oh so luscious. Like Muddy Waters said, Big leg women sure got something good, People, they's crying about it in the neighborhood. @PaddockClub Elkhart Lake WI — 2 years ago
Château de Vaudieu
Val de Dieu Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 2013
Well well well, balanced she said. Bright and earthy after uncorking but slow the horses! This beautiful wine opened up to reveal balance, elegance, light fruit, and smooth depth. This is the perfect age to drink it. Enjoying ourselves at Lupi & Iris in Milwaukee. — 3 years ago
Guido Porro
Vigna Lazzairasco Barolo Nebbiolo 2018
Enjoying at Stefano’s in Sheboygan WI; seriously worth the drive! This beautiful, delicate and sophisticated wine greets you with cherry and a lovely brick color, that quite honestly smacked me upside the head! Like wow! Don’t be deceived by its lush approachable appearance. This wine is yummy and I think it’s going to be my new go-to! It paired well with a 6meat stuffed pasta in a butter pecan sauce as well as a fresh Alaskan halibut topped with capers and artichoke. Thank Gawd Sheboygan isn’t on everyone’s radar! More for us!! YAY!!! — a year ago
Château Lecuyer
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2019
Aromatic, full bodied, dark color, thin legs and fast moving, bitter and I’m in the mood for it! It’s been one hell of a day. Dining at Moxie in Whitefish Bay WI, June 2023. — 2 years ago
Rombauer Vineyards
Diamond Selection Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2001
Leather notes like a 1970 Porche 911 Targa. If you’re not a Porche fan, just know It’s classic and sexy. Once opened it was a slow rumble, deep and rich. After some miles, I thought it would open up more but, hey, sometimes a smooth ride is very good. — 2 years ago
Cantine Buglioni
il Lussurioso Classico Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend 2019
Needs 10 minutes to open up like preheating the oven before stuffing it with the meat, Haha. Seriously tho, this is at first was light bright and crisp but given some time reveals a lush deepness with plumb, hint of pepper, dark Italian cherry or tart cranberry. It’s dry and Perfecto!
At Villa Gallace in Indian Rocks Beach FL, Feb 2024 — a year ago
Costa di Bussia (Tenuta Arnulfo)
Campo dei Buoi Barolo Nebbiolo 2013
