Château d'Esclans

Whispering Angel Côtes de Provence Rosé Blend 2023

Fresh, softly fruity, not sweet. Perfect in day time, should drink cold. — 7 months ago

Chateau Ste. Michelle

Cold Creek Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Bought at Pine Orchard 9/23 $24. Rich berry flavors. Tannins have probably mellowed too much. Would like to try again with a younger Vintage. — a year ago

Kitaya

Kansansui (Cold Mountain Water) Junmai Dai-Ginjo Sake

Just, just... just wonderful.

Initially, I get quince and a slight licorice that isn’t overpowering. Peach, of course.

The intangible here is just the well rounded character of the whole thing. It’s hard to nail down, but it’s got this savory, sweet, umami, bitter, acid quality to it that just brings a sip to the very edge of paradise as a flavor, a taste, an experience.

I’m glad I went for the gold here. I love drinking the canned sake and the 300 mL bottles when I’m going solo, so I upped the ante a bit and went for the mid-tier higher selection and it paid off.

Chateau Ste. Michelle

Cold Creek Vineyard Merlot 2015

Ming L
9.2

Let’s see:
Single vineyard
45-year old vines
A fantastic vintage
A reputable producer
Aged in American and French oak barrels for 22 months, 25% new
Additional 6 years in bottle age (at time of purchase)
How is $15 per bottle possible?!
The wine itself is fantastic as well. Ripe black plum, blueberry, licorice, cinnamon, black tea leaf, and hint of dried mushroom on the nose. Supple and balanced. No rush but very delicious now.

Cold Creek Ranch Pinot Grigio 2023

No bitterness or any minerality. Just crisp, clean, and flavors of white grape, lemon and lychee hint. Long lasting finish. Longer than I’d expect. — 6 months ago

Ardbeg

Uigeadail The Ultimate Islay Single Malt Scotch Whiskey 54.2% abv.

We love Islay malts in winter— Seattle reached 17° F today, so we reached for the Oog. Gorgeous bottling if a touch sweet for my palate. Threads the needle of smoky peat/malt styles very well. Best with a few drops of water to open up. — 3 years ago
