Ravenswood Winery

Vintners Blend California Old Vine Zinfandel 2017

Very good selection, in the Under $10 range ($5.97 at Total Wines)

Having been to the Ravenswood winery, and trying a good portion of the portfolio, grabbing this was a no-brainer. Decanted for an hour, good fruit in the Boysenberry range (Blackberry x Raspberry, Loganberry being a similar hybrid), nice spicey character. Would purchase again in the price range.

Ravenswood has a nice portfolio, and I hope after this Pandemic period, Gina Gallo opens the doors to the tasting room once again.

Realm Cellars

Beckstoffer To-Kalon Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2011

@David A Lentine @Gina Sabean @Christine You know that you are drinking GREAT wines when you can say that a Realm Beckstoffer To Kalon came in last. I love this producer beyond measure!! Every wine they make is a hit. Everyone tonight agreed that drank by itself it would have been amazing. However, it still needs a few years to open up and spread its wings!! All of my bottles were decanted for 8 hours today, I began formulating thus rodeo of a lineup around 11am. The Realm had huge dark fruit but too many rough edges in comparison to the others. In all honesty, these are so good that we are splitting hairs but alas they must be ranked and that is how the Cookie Crumbled this evening. — 10 years ago

Gallo Family Vineyards

Signature Series Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

Gina Gallo signature series cabernet sauvignon 2013. OUTSTANDING!!!!!! 95% cab, 3% petit verdot, 2% petite Sirah. Very dark opaque.... um um already. The bouquet is Lavender and fresh picked blueberries. The initial palate is amazingly sweet but not sticky!!!! I let it decant for 30 min after the first 2 oz. POW! I was not expecting anything from Gallo to be this good. There is ripe blackberry of coarse, boysenberry, rhubarb, and sweet raspberry int the beginning. The wine quickly brings to the palate hints of chocolate and fig. No spice. No oak. Maybe some vanilla. The the finish brings in the dry lip licking goodness and there comes the spice in the finale. This rounds it off to perfection. I know she worked hard to get this one. Congratulations Miss Gallo! I’m finally blown away by Gallo wines. I’ll be getting a whole lot more this while it lasts!!!!!! Oh did I mention its only 40 dollars a bottle!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — 8 years ago

Morlet Family Vineyards

Passionnément Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

@David A Lentine @Gina Sabean @Christine It was a unanimous decision., this was the WIne Of The Night! Simply amazing! Structure, Elegance and a strikingly long finish and mouthfeel. We had multiple glasses on the table and Everyone was revisiting the Morlet to compare. There was a depth and broadness in this wine that just surpassed the amazing "runner up". Truly no rough edges. My only minute drawback was the nose. It was not as pronounced and evident as the Amazing Kenzo that we enjoyed. More to follow shortly in that review! — 10 years ago
