Once & Future Wines
Sangiacomo Vineyard Merlot 2017
Infanticide? Probably...but this is my first experience with a Sangiacomo Merlot and wanted to assess future purchasing potential. As expected, this came across very young and I did not give it the air time that it rightfully should have received. Nevertheless, the quality was undeniable and the potential, obvious. This was a mix of berries and cream, anise, and some mint. Super duper fresh. Medium weight. Long finish. For those that were able to grab some, I strongly suggest giving these cellar time or, at the very least, an extended decant. This is already good and has a very bright future. — 6 days ago
Kieu Hoang Winery
Carneros Pinot Noir Rosé 2016
Dark cherry with tangerine and ripe guava. A touch flinty cherry. Lightly acidic. The nose is more exciting than the body. Definitely a face model 😉 — 16 days ago

I like this a little more than the Aubert Powder House, not as tart & salinity on the finish, but can’t go wrong with either one
