Incredible wines. Extremely challenging vintage for this part of California.

Caymus Vineyards

Suisun Valley Grand Durif 2021

Dark, inky crimson with a pale rose rim.
Bouquet of a forest of brambles and vegetables.
A sort of salinity sits in the center of the flavor, rounded out by other mineral complexities. The finish is medium-long with some acidity.

Roederer Estate

Brut Anderson Valley Sparkling Pinot Noir - Chardonnay Blend

Nice holiday bubbly!! Founded in 1982, Roederer Estate adds oak-aged reserve wines to all their blends to create complex, dry and harmonious sparkling wines. First Brut California sparkling produced by Champagne Louis Roederer. Pale lemon straw, nice mousse and bubbles for this 60% Chardonnay & 40% Pinot Noir blend. Flavors of crisp Apples with creamy mineral tones, nice balance with acidity. Long finish ending with oak, lemon and nutty characteristics. Consistent. Very nice! — 21 days ago

L'Ermitage Brut Anderson Valley Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2017

Golden color, fine bubbles. On the nose pear, bread and butter. First sip tastes and smells like freshly baked bread, followed high acid, pear and peach. A little bit off dry. Delicious. — 15 days ago

An unusually viscous body for a Ceritas wine. Enjoyable, but not my favorite. — 12 days ago

Radio-Coteau

Savoy Vineyard Pinot Noir 2014

Went through a dramatic slow journey once opened from a big fruity nose that would have made me guess a young gamay, followed by a teeth chipping tannic front, and then (maybe an hour in?) settled down like a older confident burgandy. — 3 months ago
