Lightly smoky, little peppery, lighter than You expect but not too much. Great! — 3 months ago

Last dinner in France, last wine to taste. This wine was given to me by someone but I don't remember who. It was in my father's cellar with a handwritten note "Daniel's wine".
There is tar, cedar, black currant and blackberry, cocoa and mocha on the nose. The palate is very well made with a great acid drive, some nice width, a beautiful black currant and blackberry fruit shining through and through, a soft mouthfeel giving way to some already nicely integrated tannins in the rear, living a grain and powering up some savory tastes, almost meaty, and a nice finish that goes on for a while. Very nice bordeaux! — 2 years 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...
Happy Holidays to everyone.🎄 — 6 years ago

Vintage 2017 / Syrah from the Rhône, I chose when tasting blind. Syrah is in it, just like Petit Verdot, Pinotage but dominant is Cabernet Sauvignon. Tastes like Old World. Warm and comforting. Great p/q. South Africa often surprises me. — 6 years ago

Some days, you want something stronger than wine, and today has been well.......one of those days.

Old No.7 brand, since 1866, a sour mash whiskey favorite. Jack & Coke works for me.

Sparkling red Daniel's birthday. Lightly sparkling at the front of the palate with a finish like a usual red wine. I liked but Daniel preferred the laithwaites one — 5 years ago

This is the drift rows single vineyard cab (oakville 88 vineyard). Virtual tasting with Justin and Andrew. They made this different than the typical hunnicutt big and rich style. They picked a little earlier for a more ageworthy balanced wine. Nice minerality and dark cherry. 93-94+. Would like to see this in 10 years but you can drink it now with a decant. — 6 years ago

Want to know what true Pinotage tastes like from one of the most stunning regions in South Africa? Complex nose and pallet that made me think on every sip. A wine not for the light hearted. — 7 years ago

Pearly spicy pear... so fresh and so clean clean. Dry with just enough sweet bite. Clearly I don’t know how to speak wine notes but you get my drift... 😂🙏👏 — 6 years ago

Not a great bordeaux but a great average bordeaux if you get my drift. Well balanced, not too acidic, pleasant tannins and none of that fruity nonsense that messes up a good claret. — 7 years ago

This is as mystical as the gorgeous flower on the label. Packed with fruit, with an oily texture, off dry but dry if you catch the drift. Simply thrilling. — 8 years ago
