Hospices de Nuits

Teira
Sonoma County Zinfandel 2009
Light nose. Picked up oak and toasted nuts. Thick in the mouth but light in flavor, actually works well. Cherry with tannins. — a month ago
Los Padres
Central Coast Grenache 2012
Fascinating nose - fruit, oak, leather bouncing between floral and vinegar. Has an immediate complexity like a Cab Sav but is light in the mouth, not the CS thickness (it is 7 years old). I like the age of this wine. — 2 months ago
Bellingham
The Bernard Series Small Barrel S.M.V. Shiraz Mourvedre Viognier 2014
Old nose. Seems 10 when it’s 5 years old. Young on the tongue. Plum, berry. I suspect it will be nicer as it ages. — a month ago
