Lilly Rosé 1913
I really love this Santa Ynez Valley Rosé.its fruit forward, but very dry. The have found a wonderful balance between raspberry and minerality. Not as delicate as a Provence Rosé but an excellent rosé. Perfect for warm weather sipping. Flavors show best in cold temps, loses some luster when warm. Can't go wrong with this one. — 23 days ago

La Paciencia Vineyard Grenache 2015
Enjoying a head-to-head Grenache tasting with this an Nine Suns. Certainly cool climate, had the Rocks District funk, but blew off well through the day before dinner. Herbaceous tapenade tang with some iron and rock hiding underneath. Looking forward to what 5-10 years will bring. — 12 days ago
Nine Suns
Grenache 2016
The initial Grenache from @Jason Chang is rocking. Infanticide, but paired very very well with some strips and potatoes tonight. Compared to the No Girls, this was showing better in my opinion, but it’s certainly also a style of the grape I’m more accustomed to. — 12 days ago

Santa Barbara County Grenache 2015
Fruit sourced from several vineyards in Santa Barbara County, 100% Grenache, aged for 10 months in neutral French oak. Deep Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits and spicy notes. On the palate flavors of tart blackberry and blueberry, with spice and herbs, lively acidic. Fine tight tannins, short finish ending with a spicy edge. Tasting Sample! — 3 days ago

I haven’t tried this 2017 WWB wine of the year for more than a year. Needless to say, I was completely blown away with this stunner. The 2014 'God Only Knows' is an utterly fascinating wine from the amazing team of Christophe Baron and Elizabeth Bourcier of Cayuse Vineyards. This stunning Grenache was sourced from the Armada Vineyard and instantly impresses as it opens to intoxicating aromatics of red fruits, meat, tangerine rind, black forest cake, black truffle oil, and Earl Grey tea. This walks a tight rope between power and elegance, showcasing blackberry cobbler, and black plums with red raspberry preserves, red cherries and pomegranate seed. Beautifully balanced and structured this continues to impress with its gorgeous texture and poise. Flavors of blood orange, umami and black olive tapenade continue to add complexity and impressive range as they build on the finish. The combination of purity and precision are a thing of beauty. Overall, this is a complete success, and one of most impressive wines ever from Walla Walla. Outstanding now and also possesses lovely aging potential. Drink 2019- 2029-100 — 11 days ago
