Bedrock Wine Co.
Dolinsek Ranch Heritage Red Blend 2015
Another rollercoaster experience with Bedrock but happily this was on the up side; maybe 10 years is the key. Opened, tasted put in an aerator and went to dinner. The wine was excellent start to finish and did not seem to change much. A lot of dark fruits all around, smooth finish and just drinking great. Too busy at dinner with friends to have detailed notes. — 22 days ago

Pali Wine Co.
Tower 15 Santa Barbara County G.C.M. 2020
Pleasantly surprised how good this wine was. A lot of plums, cherries and a bit of spice and cedar on the nose. The taste showed dark fruits and with a nice long finish. Overall it was a very nice light great drinking wine. Happy I loaded up this wine at Pali’s most recent wine sale. — 14 days ago
Pali Wine Co.
Riviera Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2022
This is one of my high end drinkers I keep mainly for my family. Had a very early dinner on busy night and grabbed this. Well I was a little surprised that it did not show much at all on nose or taste; would more time in glass or bottle make a difference? On the next night opened a PN that goes for less than half the cost and it showed so much better with some nice PN notes all around. Not sure what to do about Pali but have a bunch more to drink and then will decide on future purchases. — a month ago
Tower 15 Winery
Old Oak Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2018
Opened and tasted and seem okay so did not decant but put in an aerator. Showed pretty will with lead pencil, dark fruits, some spice and a nice finish. It lasted for a while and by the end of the meal, about 90 min later it just shut down. Not too much left on nose or taste and the finish seemed to cut short; odd for sure.

Lead pencil, veg, spice cedar combo and some dark plums on the nose. The taste had some plums and a bit of veg. The finish was okay but a bit short. Overall a great wine and my last of 2016 and now on to the 2017s. — 8 hours ago
