Really wonderful. Love that there’s so much more to a the typical carneros notes here. Earthy with a little fruit but not much. — 6 months ago
Another great grenache from t-vine. I remember not loving this wine 7 years ago, but wow it has come together over time. Paired with homemade cannelloni — 4 years ago

I love Dakota Shy wines, and this is an excellent one. Decanted for several hours. Inky dark purple. Full-bodied, rich, and complex. Dark chocolate, plums, cassis, and a hint of vanilla. Long finish. Fabulous now, but still has a lot of cellaring potential. — 6 months ago
Nose has ripe plum, mashed blackberries, dark chocolate powder, strawberry jam on leather, molasses, molasses cookies, wet soil, nutmeg and vanilla bean.
Palate has blackberry compote, black cherry reduction, partially dried plum, wet baking spice, wet+dry leather, dark chocolate shavings, (light) oak/vanilla influence remains. Extended finish, really starting to pick up incredibly at 3-4H in the decanter.
Paired with Allen Bros. ribcap (USDA Prime version) tonight, unfortunately our grill has a 4ft. snow drift in front presently so the best I can muster was a super hot cast iron pan from the oven, then onto stove with lots of butter and in 7m total we had beef to die for...Which I had some competition for dining this evening.
This bottle was a very generous gift from my West Coast brother @David T from earlier in the year. My work travel schedule was hectic and never found a good time to settle in on a weekend with the wine or pairing, until now. (I've lost track of the amount of COVID tests I've done in the past 5M, but all have been negative 🙏 to date.) A fabulous gift to enjoy now that I'm hopefully relaxing for the next 2w...

Twenty year old Pinot only begins to scratch the surface at Billy Crews. The Man started his cellar and restaurant in the early eighties. In 86 he got WS Grand Award of Excellence, and till this day he is one of less than 60 restaurants in the world with the distinction. He’s got more stories I his back pocket than than your favorite novelist. Paired with NY Prime Steak and Billy’s stories. — 5 months ago
