Clos Beauregard
Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2016
The first night it kind of got a little overwhelming to be perfectly honest. I had to call it quits and try it again a couple of days later and then I finally got the smoky and earthy and savory flavors. The structure is definitely there and it takes some time to unwind. Very tight very expressive Wine, definitely enjoyed it.  — 18 days ago
Rose & Arrow Estate
Hopewell Hills Eola-Amity Hills Pinot Noir 2018
Delicate and consistent. From the very first to the very last, the flavor was exactly there. The structure, the flavors, the acidity, the sweetness, everything in between never waver. It was an incredibly concentrated and precise wine that just overwhelmed with it simplicity. Sounds weird to say that, but it was very light and very structured and even though it looks like it’s a dark and forbidden wine it’s something that just is very easy in your pallet with rose and fresh micro greens and crisp, barely ripe fruits and flavors like that. An amazing expression of just pure concentration from the wine maker in terms of delivering a product that they want with clarity outstanding. Very impressed by this wine.  — 2 months ago

Tenuta San Guido
Guidalberto Toscana Cabernet Sauvignon Merlot 2023
An excellent depth of flavor for such a light wine. Nose of dried roses, dried flowers, dusty roads. Light, ethereal flavors of grabby red fruits, underripe strawberries, red brick, light pepper. Strong structure to stand up to a dry aged ribeye. Excellent. — 8 days ago

Langhe Bianco
Not great, not bad, definitely enough structure to be not coin, little heavy with the alcohol at 13%. Unripe anjou pear, crisp Bosc pear, fresh white nectarines. Nose of waxy white flowers. Definitely good for just lounging and drinking, but don’t expect too much out of it.  — 2 months ago

Angela Estate
Yamhill-Carlton Pinot Noir 2019
Surprise me of having a more herbal and vegetable foundation than the light flowery fruity that you kind of expect from this area, but it worked very well. That herbal note faded after the first blush, and it developed some delicate strawberry and hibiscus and floral notes. Good structure, never felt flabby, but after a day or two of being open, develop some cherry flavors, which just weren’t my favorite, but weren’t bad. Delicious wine.  — 14 days ago

Rustic and hearty. Didn’t develop too much beyond its opening but good chewy, broad, firm flavors of ripe red fruits, roasted tomatoes a bit, deep dark earth, and dried spices. — 3 days ago
