@Dave, interestingly enough, Sacramento lies at the confluence of two rivers — American and Sacramento — in the area north of downtown Sacramento, there are weirs/causeways that handle flood problems (rant: because we Californians allow most of our excess rainfall to flow into the Pacific). Anyway, sturgeon, which is farm-raised around here, is big business in this area, I *believe” it produces more U.S, caviar than any other state. And the thing with farm-raised sturgeon — they are HUGE (50+ pounds) — so the local fish markets occasionally have it, very rich flavors!!

So, NO fly rods were involved, I generally hate fishing!! 🤷🤷

That is a neat story, but the fly rod would have been neater!

The Estates Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Really nice example of classic Napa Cabernet, deep plush plum, blackberry and blueberry notes with a nice touch of dusty cacao and cedar. Silky tannins, nothing obtrusive on the palate. Just a very nice wine to sip on — a month ago

To-Kalon I Block Fumé Blanc 2021

First time trying this. Pretty good. Honeysuckle stood out on the nose with lemony mint. Flavors of peach and pear with solid acidity. — 2 years ago

Reserve Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1995

So much to say about this bottle. Its profile, its history, its growing rarity. And the fact that it was made at the very peak of The Patriarch’s era…

Then there is the occasion. A wine you cellar and protect, waiting patiently for the one moment worthy of all its allure.

A wine from a cooler Napa Valley, so evident in the glass it becomes mesmerizing. The freshness, the tension, the quiet authority; everything speaks of a time and place in Napa which no longer exists.

Yes, this is the kind of bottle that stays with you, not just as a wine, but as a memory.

Private Selection California Chardonnay 2023

Unexpectedly really good. Medium oak, not too buttery. Nice fruit notes. Not too acidic. From the Cove. A solid Cali Chardonnay to me. Good value. — 3 months ago
