We have started our “dry month.” One week in and will restart over thanksgiving. If I didn’t have so much wine, would probably give it up. I’m more productive without alcohol…

As big fans of the Hudson vineyard, we needed to go here.
As expected, it presented the typical Hudson signature of ripe exotic fruits, volume on the mid-palate and unctuous sweetness. Pure and viscous in terms of presentation. We are enjoying this on wifey’s birthday.

So consistent. Lovely texture and weight, without being OTT.. very well executed. Pineapple and meyer lemons create urgency on the mid-palate. This is a innovative variation on chard. Take a look, you may be surprised. — a month ago

This is a typically rich and voluptuous example from Tor. It’s flashy on the mid palate displaying roasted pineapples and a hint of lychee. This is a multidimensional example with delicate wood treatment and soft acidity. The finish extends and expands with a sexy sweet conclusion. Take a look if you can find it. — 18 days ago

Big surprise and very impressed for such a young burg. Delicate notes of cola and black cherries on the nose and palate. Plush presentation on the mid palate with weight and a velvety texture. Relaxed tannins and moderate acidity make this a buy at the right price. — a month ago

Very impressive given that I pulled the cork one week prior. The wine held up superbly. For the regular chard, I loved this example. — a month ago

Ron R. Think you may have missed my email about the 2022 Ladybug. There is one bottle sitting in the vault here in San Diego with your name on it. My gift to you should you actually make it to SD.

Scott, I’m lame with a knee that required surgical intervention. I appreciate your touch and will take you up on your kind offer. Keep that bottle for me. I’ll bring something equally grand. All my best to you and yours…
