La Rivière Russian River Valley Chardonnay 2018

This is a delicious Chardonnay from Russian River Valley.

Medium plus in body and nicely balanced.

Dry on the palate with medium acidity.

Showing citrus, oak, light vanilla, spices, light earth, honey, yellow apples and pears.

Long finish with limes and grapefruits.

This 5 year old Chardonnay is drinking very nicely now. Showing nice balance with a soft mouthfeel.

Easy drinking and good right out of the bottle. Drinking at its peak.

Will continue to drink nicely in the next 3 years.

Good by itself as a sipping wine. Paired nicely with hard cheddar cheese.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$55.

Mid to dark Ruby in colour. Black and Red fruits - aromatics of blackberry, note of raspberry, earthy and sandy notes. A medium to full bodied palate - rich and enduring. Costers de Vinyes Vielles comes from the company’s oldest vines. A blend of 110 year old Carinena (55%) and 90 year old Garnacha (45%). Aged for 16 months in French oak. One of the 1001 Wines. 14.5% ABV. Love Priorat wines after our visit in 2022. — 4 months ago

@David T Agreed. I would like to see other Spanish districts like Rioja and Galicia. Also into Portugal.

Lot #55 Sauzal Vineyard Carignan Field Blend 2016

This is the Lot #75. Should go really well with pasta con broccoli rabe and garlic. Vigorous nose has pungent berry fruit and iodiney minerality. Rustic and fruity and zingy. Nice depth and acids. Tannins aren’t the softest but are under control. — 7 months ago

55 hectares of superb gravelly vineyards, often referred to as the "archetypical Graves." A blend of 60% Cabernet Sauvignon, 35% Merlot, 4% Cabernet Franc & 1% Petit Verdot, Organic, very very dark Ruby red with aromas of black fruits with an array of herb, floral & spice notes. On the palate flavors of berries, black cherry, licorice and cacao with pepper, great mouthfeel. Firm full fine tannins, long finish, ending with fruit, spice and floral earthy character. Extremely Nice! — a year ago
