This is a Bordeaux Blend... It's very austere at first by opens nicely with a little breathing time. Dusty tobacco, leather, dried plums and figs, and a good amount of acid make this more of a food wine. Yet I'm having it with a handful of tortilla chips and it's going down pretty nicely! — 9 years ago
This Priorat was a fun find for me at a bargain basement price ... We're talking $6 people! It's a blend of Cab, Syrah, Samsó, and merlot. Licorice, black pepper , cassis, and ripe black cherries mingle beautifully in this robust blend. — 10 years ago
This wine is funky fresh! Totally picking up the oxidized notes in the Savingnin and it has kind of a sweet honey , almond note to it... Along with really zippy acidity ! — 9 years ago
Chenin Blanc from the Loire... Stainless steel, fresh and very bright. Honeycomb, apricot, peach... Very light and lively. Got this from Kermit Lynch and paired it with buttermilk fried chicken and spicy coleslaw .. It worked just fine! — 9 years ago

This 2014 rosè is savory as hell! Mineral driven and smells like freshly cut jalapeños and taste like the sea ... Along with watermelon , tart raspberries , and of course strawberries! — 9 years ago
Cava varietals in a still white... Crisp, stainless steel, grass clippings, lemon peel, jasmine, green apple, asparagus. Delightful Spanish white that my wine bar is offering by the glass. Perfect for sunny days! — 9 years ago
Stunning Jura Chardonnay... Herbal notes, creamy, and mineral driven. Lovely balance of acid, fruit, and classic clean Chardonnay flavor profiles! Bought this at Blackwells for around $20... Great value! — 9 years ago

Unfined and unfiltered, this is a big chewy Nebbiolo. There is a lot of maraschino cherry and very ripe strawberries that I picked up right away. A great value wine! — 9 years ago
