Still waiting on all my good producers. I might have to live as long as Kissinger before they are ready. I don’t think 2010 will be entirely different. Cheers and Happy New Year!

David unfortunately you are correct the 10’s are the most structured vintage when compared to 00, 05, 09 & will also need a lot more time. Cheers!

VGR Pinot Noir 2021

Delectable Wine
9.1

Crushed wild strawberries, lavender and cedar shavings form an inviting bouquet as the 2021 Pinot Noir VGR blossoms in the glass. This opens with a lovely inner sweetness, casting ripe red fruits across a cooling acid core. It finishes long and potent yet with admirable freshness, leaving hints of licorice and the slightest tug of fine tannin. This is a fun and energetic Pinot geared toward accessibility. The VGR (very good red) blends three vineyards: Shea, Stardance and Rich Hermann. (Eric Guido, Vinous, January 2024)

Kathryn Hermann Cuvée Chehalem Mountains Chardonnay 2021

Opened way to early obviously but wanted to try a single vineyard from this producer. I will not open the other bottle for a few years. Great acidity and lots of citrus, crushed white rocks and green apples and pears. Some reduction when opened but blew off in 30 minutes. — 4 months ago

Château Potensac

Médoc Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Stunningly good at 22 years old. Deep and dense. Soil’y with aromas of black currant and bittersweet chocolate. I’ve been enjoying a lot of 00-05 medoc wines lately. While not mind blowing they are wonderful all alone or with the right food. Shows what a $30 bottle from a great terroir / producer is capable of. Not every wine needs to cost hundreds of dollars to be enjoyable — 2 years ago
