La Charge

Touraine pet nat made with Loire based Menu Pineau grapes. 2nd time tasted, with a much drier approach this time; I preferred the first bottle that had some carmelized & riper melon notes on finish. Still, very good w some complexity — 9 months ago

Chateau St. Jean

Benoist Ranch Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir

Good Pinot but overall it fell a bit flat for me compared to other CSJ Pinots. Definitely preferred the Durell Pinot over this one. This one lacked the structure and body I was hoping for — 14 days ago

Alexis Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

#AgedWineTuesday

Ruby in color with a wide brick rim.

Beautiful nose of black currants, blackberries, blueberries, dried figs, raisins, light oak, licorice, light tobacco, light earth, chocolates, eucalyptus, light vegetables, herbs, wildflowers, cola and black pepper.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry and very fruity on the palate with blackberries, black plums, figs, dried fruits, coffee, light cedar, tobacco, chocolates, cola, vanilla, licorice, spices, light earth and peppercorn.

Long finish with fine grained tannins and tangy cherries.

This gorgeous 18 year old Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley is drinking beautifully now.

This is a great surprise, as the cork totally crumbled, and I expected the worst, but it really delivered.

Shows nice balance, and great complexity with a velvety mouthfeel.

Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle. As it opens up, tannins come in (45 minutes), and make it more structured and interesting.

A great sipping wine to have all by itself and talk about. The nose is just gorgeous.

14.8% alcohol by volume.

95 points.

$80.

What a great review…Marco Cappelli made that wine…happy to see it’s still alive and well. Don’t think they ever got the respect they earned.
