Lester Family Vineyard Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir 2018

Incredibly smooth, agree with others that there is a hint of raspberry. Pleasantly surprised. — 4 days ago

Masseria Borgo dei Trulli

Duna Mirante Primitivo di Manduria 2020

From an area of sand and rock dunes betwixt sea and vineyards, WOW, it smells like kelp (in a great way) but also dried fruit and rosemary. Juicy with a super dry finish. Prunes and chocolate waltz through. I adore. — a year ago

The Bruery

Kisses Betwixt Saison Ale 2019

We got engaged. This beer is a California-to-Maryland collaboration, and it’s called Kisses Betwixt Mr & Mrs This is Ridiculous, and it’s got a cute elegant couple kissing on it all over the label. It was delicious. Best beer of my life. Assateague Island National Seashore, August 31, 2019. — 5 years ago

Domaine Michel Noëllat

Les Boudots Nuits St. Georges 1er Cru Pinot Noir 2011

2011 vintage. First time with this producer. Purchased an out of town bottle (along with a buncha BDX) approx two months ago and finally got around to driving 1.25 hours one way to pick up. Pressed immediately into service tonight. Sweet fill and good cork. Nose a bit musty. Not decanted as I was at home and too lazy for the hogsheads of real fire and whatnot. Light-medium body. Sultry notes of cinnamon, tangerine peel and slightly carmelized brown sugar betwixt drought earth and brackish water. Doesn't exactly sound like an Oscar for a memorable performance but this was firing. Lengthy finish. At the top of the bell curve and tastes like it'll remain as such for another 5-6 years. In that oh so sweet spot for dynamite, 1er Cru red Burg. At (only) roughly $170 a bottle (including shipping this time), purchasing four more bottles as we speak. I'd like to thank the Academy...er...the credit card. 12.10.24. — 5 months ago

1.25hrs is like 3miles on the 805. Did you even get past Clairemont 😂

@Norman Gennaro S’always about timing in life. Gotta know when and when not to be on the freeways.

@Norman Gennaro And yes, it’s relatively easy to get past Squaremont.

Poe Wines

California Pinot Noir-Pinot Meunier Rosé Blend 2018

Goth in pink. Or at least goth because Poe. It’s a deeper more real-ripe citrus and flower forward on a seashell wine. With some sel n chalk. I like it. I want to drink more Poe because they (or what I’ve tasted anyway) are balanced and somewhere betwixt two worlds. Like me right now? — 6 years ago

Chardonnay 2014

Chewy, waxy, orange peel, almond. Quite a complex wine showcasing a melange of flavors and textures. Just tastes like "terroir." — 9 years ago

Epoch Estate Wines

Ingenuity Red Rhone Blend 2018

2018 vintage. 36% Petite Syrah, 30% Syrah, 22% Mouvèdre, 12% Grenache. Broken up betwixt Paderewski (77%) and Catapult (23%) Vineyards. Big, bigly and bigger body. Monster push throughout. Good luck. Now or in the next decade yields a great drinking experience. 5.29.24. — a year ago
