Hong Kong wine enthusiast by route of New York City and SF Bay area. Big fan Russian River Valley Pinot and German Riesling.
Very nice Aussie Chard. Medium to high acidity. Citrus, floral, slight vanilla. Low on the butter oak scale. — 21 days ago
Complex and changed quite a bit in the glass… but a little too much tea for me. Even went thru a bitter rhubarb stage. Interesting nonetheless. — a month ago
Beautiful wine. Bargain. Gotta love a good Vacqueyras. — a month ago
With Manchego, Iberico, and olives. Nailed it. At 13 years it’s starting to develop tertiary notes… earthy mushroom, tobacco. — 6 days ago
Best Wine at Whole Foods under $25. Clean Syrah. Like Cote Rotie’s ‘Mercian cousin…. “French fries, French bread, French dressing”… — a month ago
2020. Good outside with burgers and hot dogs on the grill… but drank slightly hot… and not as QPR as past vintages. — a month ago
Tannins soft, fruit in check. Had a dusty finish that could have been Rutherford. But lacked the expected intensity and complexity of a reserve. — 6 days ago
Good. Can’t say I found a lot of Sonoma Pinot character. Started off a bit hot. But did blow off. — 23 days ago
I’m a big fan of the Suisun Valley and Mankas Corner. But it is hot. Seems like no place for Pinot. And this was hot out of the bottle… I think it’s 14.5. But decanted it settled down and was a good big Pinot. — a month ago

Good stuff with home made pizza. Good fruit. Not a lot of complexity… had a hint of stewed earth. — 6 days ago
