Carpenter

Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2018

9.4

Carpenter coming correct!! This is wound up like a starstruck boy around the finger of his celebrity crush. You get hints of all the lovely Pinotness, but it actually needs some decanting (of the second day) to really truly explode. Classic Cali PN, but with a clean mineral depth that speaks of other influences. — 4 years ago

Venge Vineyards

Family Reserve Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Should have waited to open this one. Seems a bit high on the alcohol. Eating at Murano Restaurant on Celebrity Solstice in route to Sidney. Just left Melbourne but will be back next week to visit the local wineries. — 5 years ago

100% chardonnay
made the traditional way.

11.5% ABV

pale lemon 👀

bread crumbs, lemon with some grapefruit oil and hints of pear and almond👃

full body.
medium + acidity.
firm and long lasting bubbles.

mostly tart citrus with added yeasti charecter and funk hints (from the lees i assume) 👄

long pleasant 🎯

a real ⭐ for sure.

Horse Heaven Hills Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Randall Hopkins
9.0

Rich fruit with deep berry notes and good structure. Tannins we’re integrated and had a nice finish. Group enjoyed it as it stood out from other wines as superior quality. As much as I’m not a fan of celebrity wineries, the winemaker is well known and regarded so at least they invested wisely in talent. — 4 years ago

Vieux Château Certan

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2000

With two hours of air in the decanter this bottle was quite magnificent and the best VCC I have ever had! It had a spinal structure though hidden through the celebrity tones of a great Pomerol, with notes of tobacco, tar, black fruits, red fruits and a very long finish! — 5 years ago
