Hole In The Sky

Domaine du Haut des Terres Blanches

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhone Blend 1998

Phenomenal wine. Auction wine. Found at a small restaurant hole in a wall. A little lucky but absolutely delicious — 5 months ago

Three Sticks

One Sky Sonoma Mountain Chardonnay 2021

A little green in flavor (as in unripe), too acidic, but had some elements of tropical fruit, just not full and ripe. Has potential but not the best. — 2 years ago

Must have been a hole in the bottle, it emptied way too fast. — 3 years ago

Mount Veeder Syrah 2011

Great expression! 9ish years of bottle age and still a lot of life left in this bottle. The acid is what makes this wine a true age worthy bottle. Blackberry, blackberry bramble, earthy leather. — 4 years ago

Gambrels of the Sky California Grenache

Another spot on wine from Morgan, I love the back label story about his grandmother passing along the love of wine in their family. Grenache is so much about how it is grown, and the sourcing for this wine delivers great fruit. The winemaking is restrained which lets the fruit shine thru. What a lock with our Applewood smoked baby back ribs! — 5 years ago

Rendezvous Red Lot 15 Coyotte Crest Cabernet Franc Syrah 2017

Although sourced in Napa, Sonoma and Washington State, this beauty is blended and aged by vintner and visionary, Anthony Schroth right here in the heart of the Tetons. This luscious Cab Franc/Syrah blend just won a Silver Medal at the San Francisco Chronicle’s annual wine competition. Dark cherry and blackberries are the prominent fruits in this full-bodied, well-balanced gem. Fantastic price point too. Go get you some! #jacksonholewinery #jhfoodandwine — 6 years ago

Mt. Veeder Zinfandel

Atypical Napa Zinfandel, from vineyards on Mount Veeder. Beautiful, complex nose with aromas of dark fruit and a hint of eucalyptus. Medium bodied, balanced, very restrained. And it tastes like cherry cola! (but not like the cheap Champagne in the Kinks’ song Lola). Not jammy at all — 4 years ago

Château Serilhan

St. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2015

Really good nose, very inviting and so unmistakably left-bank. Aromas of blackberry, plum, cedar, pencil shavings, earthy quality, tiny hint of vanilla - all round an excellent, well balanced nose.

Palate a little less impressive, with quite a noticeable ‘hole’ in its middle, and some green pepper and tomato vine flavours. That fruit just disappears! Mostly sour cherry, cranberry, and quite a stalky palate with ample acidity, gentle tannins but not great depth to the fruit. It’s still enjoyable, though, and at this price £18 represents v good value.

I feel like this wine is an illustration of how it can hurt to be analytical about wine - dissecting a wine’s qualities and its flaws - as this is really a perfectly good Bordeaux in many aspects and does speak to its terroir. A little more body to the palate and this could’ve been a great wine.

Hilliard Bruce

Sky Pinot Noir 2015

Easily one of the better incarnations of this wine, the 2015 Sky is drinking really well. I think (but am not 100% certain) that by this vintage Greg Brewer had moved from Melville to John Hilliard’s operation just down the road on Route 246. Has many of the same characteristics you’d expect from a St Rita Hills pinot - beautiful bright strawberry-laced fruit, a bit of earth and spice, all wrapped together in a wine with a seamless mouthfeel. Very sad that life circumstances compelled John and his wife to shut HB down, but this wine is a terrific reflection of what they achieved in a very short space of time. Cheers! — 6 years ago

Domaine Bizot

Vosne-Romanée Pinot Noir 2018

Bizot tasting & lunch. Flight 1
Very rare with tiny production. Whole cluster with 100% new oak. When you taste these wines you can see why they have such high demand almost impossible to find & pricing is sky high. The 18’s were open & seemed ready showing beautiful red cherry, berry fruits showing purity & transparency with Leroy like spice & floral notes. Everything is in perfect balance. The 2020 will also be a great vintage

Château Moulin de Tricot

Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

2016, so, young and wound up. Nose of live cypress, fresh dug hole along a wood, pine one, cherrywood, pressed raspberry; barely broken. Raisin rolls, chanterelle, rose stem. Rocky, with a silken red liquid rose petal moment that turned chewy round tannin and lush burst of plum. A solid nod to graphite immersed in raspberry tartness, red currant and slightest cinnamon and slighter peppercorn. Green in spots but there architecturally.
