Domaine Loubejac
Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2014
It's fresh and crisp like a bit young, but it matures quickly once opened. Balanced earth and fruit. Looking forward to pairing with thanksgiving dinner. — 8 years ago

Tenuta Carlina
La Togata Riserva Brunello di Montalcino 2011
Taste and look of a classic old world style red. Smooth silky, structured, lots of berry, currant, pepper. The 2006 had a bit of a young / raw feel almost like it wasn't fully mature Sangiovese . I think I will hold my other bottle for another 3-5 years. — 10 years ago

Dunn Vineyards
Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2008
I've been storing this bottle for 5 years. Drinking it makes me regret that I didn't purchase a few of these in 2011. It seems to be 100% cab but tastes and feels like an old world blend. Sophisticated. Balanced. Velvety. Luxurious. It has a juicy berry, licorice opening with a medium nutty, peppery finish. It's perfect for drinking on its own. Very satisfying glass (or two) of California Red. — 9 years ago

Nice wine but not my style. It's got a funky entry, earthy but balanced tannins. — 8 years ago
