Hello Stranger

Finca La Estacada

Hello World Cabernet Franc

Impressive on the nose and does not disappoint on the palette. Certainly the most fruit-forward cab franc I’ve had in a while, but it’s too delicious to be a problem. Wonderfully jammy but not too sweet, silky smooth body, and still has that classic cab frank earthy finish. — 5 months ago

The Calling Wines

Dutton Ranch Chardonnay 2018

Jim Nantz' partnership with Peter Deutsch. Hello friends. That is a nice crisp Chardonnay with light acidity. Full, rich mouthful but not a big buttery bomb. Won't kill you at the register. — 5 years ago

Hello Friday. Hard to believe this is a second label. Bordeaux style Napa Cab. This took a couple hours to open up but completely worth the wait. Paired perfectly with ribeye. — 6 years ago

Duckhorn Vineyards

Three Palms Vineyard Merlot 2014

Hello my friend! 🍷😊
Duckhorn Three Palms Vineyards.
A merlot for Cab drinkers. An intense, age-worthy wine with complex red fruit and mineral layers. This fine wine draws you in with every succulent sip, each one becoming more intense than the last, creating a choreographed, symphonic, moving experience, involving & evolving through the full range of human emotions. 😮 We need more like you in this world my friend.

Nice bottle, was WS No. 1 for Top 100 in 2017 list. I own a 1.5L. Glad to see you enjoying this, I've seen mixed reviews, but enjoyed this vineyard site over the past 15+ years on numerous occasions, generally a solid wine.

Another Wednesday Wine Committee for the books, this one in honor of a former WWC member, with the wines donates from his cellar by his family. A wonderful tribute. Wines tasted blind as usual.

Hello gorgeous! Hard not to call this Bordeaux from a reputable producer. I called it early ‘80s. Tart cherry, a streak of green/vegetal notes down the middle but it wasn’t detracting at all. Herbs and underripe black fruit finish. This powered through 2hours in the glass easily. Beautiful.
