2007 | Birthday weekend for my lovely wife.

Similar to notes from our recent 2005 pull, but the fruits are more muddled/commingled on the nose. Generous on the nose & palate; abbreviated notes.

Paired with baked pork tenderloin chops, glazed with Dijon mustard, garlic, rosemary, panko & Parmesan; roasted acorn squash with Za'atar, pomegranate molasses & lemon juice.

Decanted 2H at the time of notes. — 4 years ago

Gorgeous amber with orange evokes fine scotch. Tortoise shell lacing materializes. Orange bread and toasted sesame, Marcona almond, plantain and butternut squash pencil in the autumnal details. Poppyseed, toasty malt, allspice, acorn squash bread and a touch of ginger spice. Forgot what a seasonal treat this is!

Spectacular. A thousand layers of caramel toffee, date, hazelnut, and acorn. Nutty and smells like sweets, but relatively dry and winey with salty accents. — 6 years ago

Great pumpkin amber coloring with a decidedly orange hued pate. Lacy trim drops hearts and tiny pumpkins. Plenty of pumpkin on the nose accented by caramel apple and acorn squash. Cinnamon sticks allspice, mace and cloves dominate the palate, with cedar and oak forming the fiddle in the middle. Apple cider tangy on the finish. Just an intense and interesting Florida offering from Wesley Chapel. Fall gold,

Gift from Dave and Anita. Almost a brown hue to it. Wow! Delicious! Almost no fruit. I taste tobacco and wet rock. Very mellow and smooth. Will be great with beef tenderloin, grilled onion and acorn squash — 5 years ago

Sediment rich auburn redhead. With orange-tinged crown, that shrinks to tiara to tonshu with a snap, leaving only a shrinking island across a flat, rusty pond. Drops of black molasses, cooked, glazed pumpkin, butternut and acorn squashes. Dark rum soaked Dutch chocolate and vanilla wafers and moist pineapple cake. Trifles sporting rum soaked berry and carry-overs of ripe peach and nectarine. Finally date roll, figs ginger, candied lemon peel and dark brown sugar to fill the nostrils with seasonal magicks. Actual pumpkin tastes here! Rich and filled with vanilla bean, Turkish delight, fig fillings, nutmeg, candied ginger, gingerbread in caramel and spiced rum, gin-raisins, coriander, allspice, coffee cremes, clotted cream, clove, just-burnt cinnamon candies, reduced cola, licorice, and orange liqueur with a touch of juniper. Strong, festive, outrageously alcoholic (17.5 abv) delightful, warming, singular and iconic. What’s NOT to like about pumpkin beers again? #Averybrewing #CObeer #Rumpkin #Averybarrelseries #barrelaged #oakaged #beer #bier #birra #ale #oakagedale #rumbarrelaged #abv #2016ale #Boulderbeer #BoulderCO #pumpkinbeer

We’re pausing on goodness and hope today. We hold so much gratitude in our hearts for our loved ones and their presence in our lives. We want to share a heartfelt thanks to you all who’ve supported and inspired us day in and day out. 🙏🙏💕💕

Today we had a vegan Thanksgiving bowl of roasted carrots, acorn squash, brussels sprouts, and broccoli, along with mashed yams, potatoes, toasted pecans, pomegranate, cranberry sauce (with orange zest), and thyme-spiced gravy. 🍁🍁🍁

With it we paired a couple of options each of which went well with the flavors, textures, and elements of the meal… here’s the Syrah…

Lionel Faury, Côte-Rôtie, 2018. ABV 13%. Comprised of 90% Syrah and 10% Viognier, from the Northern Rhône Valley, France. Matured 18 months in oak, 30% of which was new. The oak maturation comes across on the nose and palate with notable vanilla, cedar, butterscotch, and caramel notes. Also notes of blackberry, black cherry, plum, black licorice, violet, pepper, smoke / matchstick, and clay pot. 👌👌 — 5 years ago

Was looking for a better Chardonnay than the California style, which I have tired of and this vouvray was recommended. Well, I have to agree. This 2017 was opened April 2019 for pork tenders and baked acorn squash. It was dry, a bit of butter, definitely Peach but not at all sweet. I like the French chenin blanc and this definitely will do at this time ! — 7 years ago

16 is more tropical than I expected. Still has great acid and finish. Seared scallop, Acorn Squash Purée, Butternut Squash, Toasted Almonds, Aged Balsamic. Genius. Lot of talk today about how food and wine pairing is b.s....🤷‍♂️ I disagree. Strongly. Bigly. — 7 years ago
