Ürziger Würzgarten Auslese** Riesling 2015

Amber color, lots of stones, bees wax; fantastic! But this is the apex, acids are lower and I will finish the rest of my -15s this year. — a year ago

Seavey Vineyard

Caravina Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2010

9.3

Day 2 of Napa in the books!

Our visit to Seavey was one of the best in terms of enjoying back vintage wines alongside current releases. Caravina is their “second” wine, but it shows very well. This ‘10 is drinking at its apex. Truffle, blackberry, leather, pepper and overripe red fruits.

@Joshua Fisher : We had to move some things around, but we’ll be at Brasswood tomorrow from 10-11:30 doing a Bevan tasting.

Château Angélus

St. Émilion Grand Cru Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

Like it was bottled last week at age 22 this will far outlast me. Initially compact and focussed, it ultimately spread out with layers of sweet pipe tobacco, roasted espresso bean and a range of red berry. Just gorgeous and far from its apex. — a year ago

@Bruce Leboff I’m game. Where you located? I’ll bring an 88 Lynch Bages.

Galante Vineyards

Blackjack Pasture Cabernet Sauvignon 2007

Green and black pepper, stewed dark fruit, leather, and black tea. The 2007 is smooth and well blended, but may be on the backside of its aging apex, with a bit more oxidation and a bit less tart fruit and acid than I’ve tasted in the past. Still a great wine. — 4 years ago

Southern Blend Washington State Grenache Blend 2012

Wow. This is quite hedonistic. Nose has musky florals, oozy plum and blackberry, and smoky stony notes. Intense and rich in the mouth, with a remarkable balance between rich berry fruit and savory notes. Very sultry. Jackie Brown. At its apex. — 6 years ago

Fantastic at the price point. Rich, velvety, but definitely a Red Mountain Washington Cab. — 3 years ago

Volnay-Santenots 1er Cru Pinot Noir 1976

Yes soft and very approachable nose dark cherries and great acidity fruit still totally accessible. Nice acidity l. Minor notes of oxygen and prunes. This baby might not have hit its apex yet! — 5 years ago
