Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Nice second wine from pomerol! My understanding is that this is 54/46 Merlot / cab franc. You certainly get the cab franc characteristics on the nose and palate. Just starting to veer into secondary but still has great primary fruit with a nice vein of acid cutting through everything. Opened 4 hours and decanted 1 hour before which was the right call. Very nice pairing with double R ranch prime strip steaks on a blizzard day in nyc. — 5 months ago

Lotus Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

This is a tight mama! Wrapped up like a child in a blizzard 🥶! Such potential with the black fruit. This needs 10 years more in the bottle or 2 more hours in a decanter! — 7 years ago

Super mineral nose. Also some green apple and pear. Pungent minerality. Juicy and intense. Spice and complexity and huge acids. Lovely potpourri effect on the backend. Sneaky long and intense focus. Great! Very clear and very focused. Exceptional. Blown away. Insane finish is a blizzard of complexity.

It was 82 degrees in woodland hills today. I'd take the snow and a cozy fire over that!!

@Kyle Erickson it was fantastic. Even toward the end of my SoCal days, I had cognitive dissonance with the winter heat 💛🍷

Domaine Bart

Marsannay Rosé Pinot Noir 2020

Everything you want in a rosé.Crisp, refreshing, opens up as the meal goes on. This got lost in the bday blizzard but was returned to, time and again.
According to Johnson & Robinson @World Atlas of Wine, Rosé accounts for just 1% in Burg, but is a specialty in Marsannay.
I see why.

Carménère 2014

A little heat on the nose, but African violets, raspberries and juicy-ripe blackberries, cherry cola, and blueberry pie with hints of fresh mushrooms, cedar, and eucalyptus comes through. Surprisingly light in the body and tannic structure in spite of other clues - it opens with fresh, ripe Queen Anne cherries and July strawberries, immediately giving way to prunes, pot roast and crimini mushrooms, and finishing with anise, green peppers, bitter cocoa. Would be perfect with a molè. — 10 years ago
