1hr+ decant. Super complex and refined nose. Wine has pencil shavings, chocolate, tar, dark cherries, cedar, and spice. Great depth and long finish. This was amazing!! — 13 days ago

Grgich Hills Estate

Napa Valley Chardonnay 2024

Medium bodied with medium/high acidity. Peach and citrus notes dominating with subtle hints of ginger, vanilla, and a flinty minerality. Crisp and fresh with nice finish. Tasty, but would have enjoyed more complexity, as this was really all about the citrus/fruit flavors. — a day ago

Grgich Hills Estate

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2020

Mostly Cabernet Sauvignon (83%) with some Merlot (11%), Cabernet Franc (5%) and Petite Verdot (1%) blended in. Dark ruby color. Aromas of black fruit, intense graphite and dried herbs and red/purple flowers. Flavors of black and red berries/currants/plums, dark cocoa, black licorice and woody herbs. Slight touch of vanilla on the long and expressive finish. Bright acidity and smooth tannins. Elegant, nicely structured and quite savory. Medium-plus body and well balanced. Well crafted and wonderful complexity. Best with a decant. Big hit at a business dinner. Enjoyed at Frescos in Lincoln, RI. — a month ago

Bionic Frog Walla Walla Valley Syrah 2018

1.5 hour decant(little sediment). A gorgeous dark magenta color. On the nose: dark fruit, that Cayuse funk(luv it), smoked meat, burnt caramel, bell pepper, orange rind. Taste: bold, polished, savory wine with blackberry, grilled cherry, bacon fat, minerals, gamey, and a long lingering peppery finish. YUM! Delicious. — 7 days ago

Sea Smoke

Ten Estate Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2023

Dark garnet color with a ruby core. Aromas of dark berry fruit, forest floor, lavender and smokey vanilla. Flavors of black cherry, blueberry and blackberry fruit with additional flavors of black licorice, baking spices, savory herbs and roasted nuts. That smokey/oaky vanilla flavor extends to the long and silky finish. More weight, heft, power and concentration than your typical Pinot Noir. The bright acidity balances this wine beautifully. Outstanding! Thanks to Kase and Petey for bringing this wine on our 2026 Cape May, NJ vacation. — a month ago
