Nickel & Nickel

John C. Sullenger Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Dark red/purple color. Exquisite nose featuring violets/lavender, plum, cassis, menthol and black olives. Dark cherry/plum/currant on the palate with additional notes of tobacco, dried basil and toast. Impeccable balance and perfectly integrated. Long finish and super soft tannins. Great example of an Oakville Cabernet. Fantastic! — 2 days ago

Storm Wines

John Sebastiano Vineyard Pinot Noir 2020

The most inland single vineyard in the Storm line and showing it’s the least delicate. Structure that will benefit from more time in bottle. This is a great wine that costs too much money. Decant and pair with duck breast and morels. — 8 months ago
