St. Helena Merlot 2017

A big chewy Merlot w red currants, pomegranate, white pepper, some raspberry, black pepper, and a touch of charred oak. Silky tannins. Plenty of room for growth w some years but this is drinking really nicely. — 2 years ago

Ruston Family Cabernet Sauvignon Cuvée Simone 2019

This beautiful cab dominant blend (15% merlot) promises to be one of their best vintages in a long while. Dark fruits with a depth of flavor uncharacteristic for an only slightly big medium-bodied wine. Playfully spicy with a good tannic core. This got better each day over a 5 day timeframe. This is gonna be a great wine in 5 years. — a year ago

Charles Heintz Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

Classic California chardonnay without the oakiness. There is a good balance here and the wine really bursts with flavor when tasted with food. — 2 years ago

Cuvée Mahalia Red Blend 2016

This Bordeaux blend is merlot dominant w cab, cab sav, and petit verdot. It’s still tight from being too young. But showed nice layers and fruit w legit tannins. Will revisit in 2 more years. — 3 years ago
