Wine Society - a pleasant Italian wine - mild fruity tones that linger well after the wine has left the mouth. Definitely will order again - would be idle for BBQs and summer evenings. — 5 years ago

Absolute gusto! Prior: After I Practiced my civil duties , I wanted to ease back in my sipping seat to do some deflecting/reflecting on the last 4 years of this political climate. I can only hope for the best man to win but with this tasty wine in my glass I don't need to stress about who wins because what difference will it really make?! Happy election day everyone!🖐️ — 6 years ago

Can’t go wrong with the always unique outlier Cayuse in the mix. Raconteur @Shay A brought this and the expected fox fur and raw hot dog bouquet hits you immediately upon initial swirl. Blood and iron everywhere. Like a civil war battlefield. Always fun. — 8 years ago

Suave, polished, and utterly drinkable, the 2019 Selección 874 from the Wine Society is a brilliant modern Rioja with great heritage. Produced by La Rioja Alta, this feels more forward and - perhaps, immediately - drinkable than the Ardanza, a more serious Reserva for the long haul. But this has plenty of stuffing to age well, and I think it will become a beautiful, graceful Rioja with another 15+ years in bottle. That’s if, of course, the rest of my case can wait…

Blend of Godello (40%), Albariño (40%) and Treixadura (20%) from the spectacular Cortezada plot. Built in the 1920s on the south bank of the Sil River in Ourense, it was abandoned after the Civil war and replanted around 2000. Fresh, fruit-forward. Citrus (lemon) aromas and flavors. Good structure. Mineral, some flinty notes, slightly saline. — 5 years ago

Had his as a Guwerztraminer tasting event at Beetle Cat in Atlanta, hosted by the Southeast Sommelier Society. Gorgeous floral nose of peach blossoms, white rose petals and lychee. On the palette, this wine was impeccably balanced with lemon tart acidity cutting though the evident residual sugar. Succulent notes of fresh apricot, lychee and lemon tart to a long and refined finish. — 8 years ago

Purchased at the winery in 2024. Damn this is deep. From the 1869 Grandpere Vineyard in Amador County. 1869. The Civil War was still fresh in people’s minds and the grass hadn’t even grown over Abe Lincoln’s body yet. Hard to comprehend in 2025.

Deep and pure black cherry fruit and minerality on the nose. silky and mouthfilling on entry, the mid-palate is large-framed and pulls in savory elements. Long finish. Such a special vineyard and such a special wine. Intensity of flavor without any jamminess or residual sugar or loss of balance. — 10 months ago

The 2017 ‘Component Collection’ Malbec shows bright violets with blackberry compote and white pepper dusted mocha tones alongside scorched earth that all take shape in the glass. The palate is plush showing a gorgeous sense of richness and complexity. Blueberry cordial and Black Forest Cake flavors march on parade with espresso bean and dark currants on the palate. The length here is really good, as this beautiful and decadent Malbec wine will provide drinking enjoyment for the next fifteen years. Drink 2021-2036- 94 — 6 years ago

We just had the 2011 vintage and apparently it has nothing in common with prior vintages. Given time, super chocolate notes to start and later leather and tobacco flavors and nose come through. Not what I would typically expect of a malbec but a nice wine with a good rare steak...and pretty damn good with chicken — 8 years ago
