Stone fruit and slate with a touch of grapefruit. Brighter than many French Sauvignon Blancs; very tasty! — 3 years ago

Viognier 2018

Petroleum, honeysuckle, yellow cake, and lavender nose. On the palate more petrol, peach nectar, honey, ruby red grapefruit, gunpowder, white pepper, with a powerful petrol after nose. I might have called this a quality german trocken Riesling in a blind test. This is a fabulous Viognier in the french style. — 4 years ago

Cowboy Cuvee Estate Bottled Red Wine 2018

‘Cowboys Cuvée’ Red wine blend says the label. Pours a dark and stormy red of blood. Smells like wet stones and gauze. B.O. too. Hint something herbal. Flavors are chewy and fresh. Herbal streak. Fresh basil, mint, marjoram, etc. Plenty of tannins. Cherry cola and fresh blackberry too. This is a pretty standard Mertiage type CA fancy red. Checks in at 14.0% ABV so that seems like a mature grape and a long hangtime. Nice stuff. Big, lush and fairly complex. Hint too much spice box and just a bit of the dreaded vanilla oak sauce though. Otherwise excellent stuff. — 2 years ago

Red Rose Hill Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

This impressive Cabernet-dominant blend would be Bordeaux-style except for the splash of Petite Sirah in the mix. It is medium bodied, with blueberry and pepper spice. There’s a bit of a licorice or anise flavor to the finish, which kept me sipping! We enjoyed this with a traditional Irish corned beef and cabbage.

76% Cabernet Sauvignon
8% Merlot
8% Malbec
8% Petite Sirah

Centennial Carmel Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

I tried this vintage 4 years ago. It is still tart and dry with lively fruit and high acid. The nose exhibits cranberry, almond, American oak (coconut), and cinnamon. The palate reveals cranberry, oak, cedar, aniseed, leather, tart strawberry, and tart cherry. Medium plus tannins, medium plus alcohol, and excellent zippy (high) acid. — 3 years ago

Almond Flat Pinot Noir 2013

Inky garnet in the glass. Smoky bing cherry, clove and baking spices on the nose. Silky on the palate with vanilla and ripe raspberry, very fine tannins. Perfect pairing with Salmon in a Honey, Soy, Garlic and Dijon glaze! — 3 years ago
