Sipping Fine Wine

9.3

Ruby with aromas of dark berry fruits and complex toasty spices. On the palate flavors of blackberry, raspberry and currants with cacao, vanilla and toasty notes. Firm tannins, long finish, lively acidity ending with sweet toasty spice notes. Nice! Wait on this one until at least 2023. Tasting Sample! — 4 years ago

Joyful Rhône Valley Syrah. Even in its youth. Dusty nose with black tea and florals dominating the palate. Mild spice and pepper on the finish. Worth a try. — 5 years ago

9.1

Star bright yellow gold. Inviting nose of baked peaches and magnolia blossom. Full-bodied complex palate of dried peaches, white flowers, toasted balsam, and a hint of honeycomb. Lingering finish. Medium acidity. A barrel fermented Viognier that’s a great winter fare white. Drink now through 2023. — 5 years ago
