Hayne Vineyard Petite Sirah 2005

Might have kept this a little too long as the flavors are a bit muddled. The aromas/nose on it fills the room so it’s very aromatic. The finish is long but all in the mid-palate and nothing in the cheeks so feels lacking. More acidic than I love. — a year ago

Incredible aromas, so many layers. Palate is not quite as impressive but that just says a lot about how intoxicating the nose is. — 5 years ago

Ürziger Würzgarten Spätlese Riesling 2018

Starts beautifully with a petrol and honeysuckle nose, honeydew melon, lemonade, lime, kiwi fruit, and moderate acid. The finish fades a light too quickly to rate as a great Riesling. — 6 years ago

Rózsa Libre! Rosé Blend

i love this unfiltered rosé blend. it didn’t taste much like a rosé since it had a little more body than most rosé’s - more medium bodied. the lack of filtration gave it some nice texture. it does bright raspberry noted balanced by some gripping tannins. i am into this! i’d love to have again. i had at frog bar and haven’t seen this bottle before — 2 years ago

Hoffman Lane Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Another winespies purchase that has proven to be a good purchase. Strong spice, blackberry and slight cherry, cinnamon, and more. Medium tannins. A 7 year old wine that likely could age another 5 - 10 years. — 5 years ago

Beringer Vineyards

KVR Knights Valley Reserve Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

In its third century of crafting wines from Napa, Beringer is guided by the partnership of Winemaster Emeritus Ed Sbragia and Winemaker Laurie Hook.
Founded by Jacob Beringer, Vineyard was established in 1876. Dark Ruby with rich aromas ripe dark fruits with sweet spice and cedar notes. On the palate blackberry and cherry with licorice and cacao, well integrated and balanced acidity. Soft tannins, great mouthfeel, long finish, aged well. Nice!!

Ladoix Pinot Noir 2018

On the nose, breeding stands out on notes of sweet tobacco, cedar. The mouth is fresh, supple, simple but charming. The aging is fine, and the sour red fruit is fresh and crunchy. Beautiful gourmet and affordable cuvée that does not lack finesse. To be tasted in two years.

Au nez, l’élevage ressort sur des notes de tabac doux, cèdre. La bouche est fraîche souple, simple mais charmante. L’élevage est fin, et le fruit rouge acidulé est frais et croquant. Belle cuvée gourmande et abordable qui ne manque pas de finesse. A regoûter dans deux ans.

@romo Yes. An appellation that remains at a reasonable price, which is generally not the case in Burgundy.

Kalkstein Blaufränkisch

some bic lighter and graphite on the nose, tiny bit of burnt orange peel. super-slick viscosity medium-medium-light feel, cranberry-skin quick dissolve to black stalk vegetation and a kind of cherry-pit bitterness that is really pleasant. has that racy edge of a pre-release pinot, the barrel-tasted variety, or a super fresh gamay, and so good with food. great acid to tannin ratio. happiness for half this table! there is one participant at this table for whom the acid veers toward overly tart :P......no judgement. parked one more for comparison in a year or two. — 6 years ago
