This was my bottle, and it was opened alongside a ‘15 for comparison sake. Aromatics were similar to the ‘15 (red and black fruit) but less candied. More dirty, but not off putting. However, the finish on this was very unique...it turned very umami/earthy/herbal. Maybe an odd phase as it wakes up? Structure was still very solid (as expected for mountain fruit) so this may hold a while...

Almost two hours later: Better with air. Became more dark chocolate covered. Wow. The savory notes have faded and it’s showing a more rich and dark cocoa type finish. Very enjoyable.

Very interesting wine. An initial pop and pour, this one had a very candied raspberry and cherry nose. On the entry, black cherry cola with some figs and a hint of dark cacao. The finish of this wine went to a very dark and soil rich truffle and mushroom for about the first 45 minutes. Almost seemed to have a straw or weedy kind of character. After an hour, the finish changed dramatically and this one was rocking. My goodness these Paloma Merlot are good.... If I could only keep my hands off of my younger vintages so that they could become older vintages!!

I really liked this sake and feel like people are giving it crap reviews because its Gekkeikan. A lot of pear and apple flavors, crisp and clean. — 7 years ago

Clear yellowish amber with a white head. Sweet malt on the nose, citrus and a little herbal. A bit sweet on the palate too with sweet spices like cinnamon and caramel, some rice, yellow fruits and hops too. Long finish with a medium to full body. — 8 years ago

Gravity Junmai Daiginjo Sake

An interesting sake out of LA. Drip or shizuku sake, it’s reading a bit sweet for me but true to its -3 SMV rating. They say the acidity is a bit higher than normal to balance it out which also comes across. It would be interesting to see the acidity lower. I will try the others they make and the beers look interesting as well. — 2 years ago

Day 2 of Napa in the books!

The flagship offering from DA. 100% estate cab. Lots of similarities to the Old Vine Cab, but less spice and more sweetness. Would love to open one of these next to a Chappellet PH cab for comparison sake. Undoubtedly red and black fruit dominant with powerful and sweet oak. There is dark chocolate covered black cherries, fresh squeezed blackberries and underripe plum. Almost velvet like on the palate at this age. Needs time, of course, to fulfill its really nice potential.
