2022 vintage. Wowzers...massive impressions of both fruit and tannins. Best Ontogeny I've sampled. 25+ year wine to age if you've got that kinda time. Delicious and with decent acidity so it doesn't opt into the overly ripe sweepstakes thank goodness. 10.09.24. — 2 months ago
An amazing Sauvignon Blanc with a great potential to age, enticing citrus notes with some powerful yet not overwhelming tropical fruit flavors. Great wood notes make this one very distinctive and expressive white from Sonoma. A bit hazy with some sediments which fall almost into a natural category of wines. However; it’s meant to improve as it ages. A bit not so common for a white from this region. Paired with seafood (salmon and tuna fish). Solid! — 4 months ago
Decanted 1+hrs but needs more like 3-4. Grape Now & Laters and lots of alcohol on the nose. Palate contains dark cherries with some herbs. Wine improved vastly with time. Medium depth and finish. Below expectations, but age and a longer decant may change that. — a month ago
An 11 year old Pinot Noir from Bevan…what a treat! I don’t think it’s going to improve with further aging. It’s time to drink this one. — 4 months ago
The 2022 Syrah Tous Les Jours is a fabulous entry-level offering from Andrew Murray. A blast of dark cherry, plum, mocha, scorched earth, licorice, spice and espresso are all dialed up. It's an unreal value. “This gets a lot of really good stuff," Murray adds. No kidding. That's obvious. $25.00 (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, September 2024) — 3 months ago

Thought this was going to have more punch to it. Might have kept it too long but it wasn’t browning or any lightness in color. Just a bit flat. — 5 days ago
