Nice begin-finish after open for 4 hours on this split. Balanced dark Cherry liquor, grilled herbs & surprising perfume on finish w/Foxglove from Tulip Tree Creamery. No disappointment here. — 10 years ago

A big, big fan of Varner and their Foxglove, the best QPR 2nd label in Cali, with Talley’s Bishop’s Peak a close second. Varner’s entry-level Los Alamos pinot is a super fresh, light-bodied style with ample fruit, depth, and acidity. For $20 it’s SOLID. Varner’s higher end chard/pinot are superb. Seek out the entire range. Foxglove truly rocks as well. — 4 years ago

At 87.5% Cabernet Sauvignon and 12.5% Petit Verdot, from an average of 21-year-old vines, the 2021 Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon is quite a balanced example—the alcohol a mere 13.4 – very polite for a Paso Cab. It tastes of ripe red fruit (plums, cherries, currants); friendly vanilla and baking spice speak to some oak. There’s almost a cola note, too, though, which is super fun. The mouth brings clingy but introverted tannins; you might not think of them unless you are thinking of them, but you notice them hanging on if you do. — 3 months ago
