We had the 2020 vintage of Little Hill on 11/3-4/26. Tastes of black cherry, raspberry and spice. Wonderful mouth feel. Medium bodied, well balanced, New World. Aged and ready to drink, no tannin. Perhaps the best single vineyard I have had. — 11 days ago
From magnum. Partially poured into a decanter and enjoyed over the course of a couple days. Best on Day 2. The 2015 Pritchard Hill pours a deep ruby/purple with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing and richly fruited with powerful, heady notes of cassis, blackberries, plum, purple flowers, tobacco, cocoa, some star anise and fine warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and the texture is luxurious. Classic Pritchard Hill character and surely a candidate for top vineyard status if the US were to ever adopt a classification status. There’s a long future here, especially in this larger format. Drink now with patience through 2055. — 3 months ago


An explosion of apricot flavor. Round and smooth, heavy weight, with sufficient but not overt acidity. A beautiful sweet wine. — 4 months ago
Wine 1500 🙈 ; opened for World Cup starting 2026 Mexico and South Africa; The cork popped off…; but still managed to get the fine juice out 😉; Vintage 2006, just like the „Summer Fairy Tale“ of the World Cup in Germany; and the wine leaves you wanting more „mehr Lust“, beautifully aged, fine fruit 😋 Wishing everyone a wonderful and peaceful World Cup — 5 months ago
#AgedWineTuesday
Inky in color with a wide reddish rim.
Earthy nose with black fruits, cedar and lots of earth and vegetable notes.
Full bodied and soft with medium acidity and long legs.
Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cherries, cedar, toast, light vanilla, tobacco leaf, herbs, mediterranean spices, dark chocolates, bell pepper, green tea, diet coke and peppercorn.
Long finish with soft tannins and cherries.
This 15 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from the challenging 2011 vintage, is drinking beautifully. Rich and fruit forward. Nicely balanced and very complex. Elegant and interesting.
Good right out of the bottle, and better after 30 minutes of airtime. I did not decant it and let it open up in the bottle.
As it opens up, more bell pepper notes show up. Feels like a Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon. Still drinking at its peak, but will not last long so drink up.
A great sipping wine that does not need food at all.
14.8% alcohol by volume.
93 points.

After an hr of air things just came together big fruit, present tannins and a great finish. Everything appeared in harmony and yet there seemed it had more to give. Hold for a few if you can. — 7 days ago
Primarily Chenin Blanc with small amounts of Semillon and Grenache Blanc blended in. Light golden color. Expensive aromas of stone fruit, white flowers, flint and honey. Flavors of cooked peaches, ripe apples, tangerine and a subtle mineral backbone. A touch of honey on the long and lingering finish. Slightly creamy/silky texture. (Lees aging?) Vibrant and zesty acidity. Rich and round with a great mouthfeel. Consistently solid vintage after vintage. Appreciate you adding this one to the tasting lineup, Chris B. I need to drink more Chenin. — 2 months ago
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min. The 2024 “White Hill” pours a pale straw color with medium viscosity. On the nose, the wine is developing with bright notes of star fruit, passion fruit, stone fruits, lemons, a touch of freshly struck matchstick, some white flowers and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and slightly saline. I love the character of these wines. Really tasty stuff. Drink now through 2034+. — 5 months ago
