Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

RP 95 and WE 93 This is good. It has a great nose, it’s well balanced, and has good structure, may be a bit simple, but sometimes I love that. There’s a purity of fruit that I like as well. I just don’t love the profile. I wanted to, but there is an earthiness / mushroom that was out of place IMO. Both on the nose and palate. Great deal on this right now and I was going to pick up volume (I’m stocking up on ‘16’s, think it’s gonna pay off big) just not on this one. Please give me a hollar if you have this and think it’s great. — 4 years ago

Domaine Comte Abbatucci

Cuvée Collection Ministre Imperial Red Blend 2016

Really a lovely and interesting wine from Corsica. Was actually relatively accessible with a couple hours of air. Medium bodied with great earth, fruit, and acid driven tension on the finish. Nice pairing with osso buco. — a year ago

Krug Collection Brut Champagne Blend 1988

Great stuff. Toasty and rich. Brioche and almonds with a dense golden color. The zip and vigor of late disgorgement gives this a freshness but with great complexity and lots of secondary stuff. Wonderful — 2 months ago
