Griffin Red Bordeaux Blend 2021

Rich fruit but well-balanced acid and tannin. Fantastic with flank steak and chimichuri. — 17 days ago

The Griffin California Red Wine 2017

Interesting to compare against the 2012 claret. A bit sharper in tannins but fun regardless — 7 months ago

Estate Reserve Monticello Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

2016 Keswick Vineyards
Cabernet Sauvignon
Estate Reserve

Even without a decant, the ‘16 Estate Reserve from Keswick Vineyards and their brilliant winemaker Stephen Barnard rises out of the glass with pronounced notes of ripe blueberries, subtle oak & forrest floor. If one didn’t know the origin I’m convinced we’d hear Italy, France- maybe even California for the sake of the fruit of it.

The tannins are silky but the backbone is/has been clearly melting into the ‘meat’ and mid-palate of the wine.

Simply put: this is a remarkable Cabernet that I still can’t believe came from Virginia.

Really enjoyed this light body wine with steak as well as Halibut. We found it well rounded (not sweet at all). — a month ago
