Vigna Scarrone Barbera d'Alba 2017

A medium to full body Barbera, showing rich dark color, Violets and plums on the nose and a complex palate.
Seems this is the perfect time to open, tanins are powefull but smooth, one can note the fruits but also layers of forest floor, earth and spices. Very enjoyable.

Mount Eden Vineyards

Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir 2020

A little shy at first but really opens up and shows after a couple hours of air. Classic Santa Cruz Mtns Pinot. Earthy. A touch candied. Long finish. Pretty wine. 👍🏼 — 2 months ago

Horseshoe Vineyard Syrah 2018

Young. Nice to check in on these Horseshoes but I’ve learned they can go the distance. A few more years and this will unfurl. — 4 days ago

Fellom Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

9.0

Well-made single varietal cabernet grown near Monte Bello. Smooth blackberry and graphite. Round and medium weight mouthfeel. Less complexity given the single varietal but made with finesse. — a month ago

Arnot-Roberts

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

Lemon curd and a zesty acidity that lands with some sweetness and then bite.

Pairing with an avocado really mellowed this wine out and made it delicious.

Lots of tension and bright lemon citrus flavor. Touch of lime.
