Caymus Vineyards
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2023
2023 Vintage. A very pleasant and easy drinking Napa Cab up front. Decent aroma on the nose, vibrant notes of cherry and blackberry, delicately structured tannins, with a very smooth finish. Not chewy or viscous, but still a bold Cab flavor that resonates with the right amount of spice. Would gladly enjoy again. — 8 days ago
Château Cantemerle
Haut-Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2020
2020 vintage. Heavy floral aromas of plum and cherry on the nose, deep ruby red in color. Full bodied, a slight chew on the initial intake, but still smooth on the finish. Continued to open up, great pairing with steak, phenomenal quality for the price range, $30-$40. — 24 days ago
Salcheto
Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Sangiovese 2022

St. Supéry Estate Vineyards
Estate Grown Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
2019 vintage. Immediate aromas of plum, blackberry currant, and oak on the nose. Seemingly heavy, it is not chewy on the palette, but rather a surprisingly smooth and decently structured Napa Cab. Great taste within the first 30 minutes, didn’t need a lot of time to open up, despite being a 2019. — 15 days ago
Van Duzer
Willamette Valley Pinot Noir
2020 vintage, very delicate aromas of fruit and classic Pinot earthy musk on the nose, slight hints of leather. Very well balanced and with a subtle finish. Continued to open up after the first hour. Paired extremely well with filet mignon. For $35, I would partake in this again. — a month ago
