Hunnicutt

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Paul K
9.5

Only had two bottles left. I opened this because I had the ‘13 935 the other night and it was on the backside of life. Great but most of the tension was gone. I opened this up thinking it too might not have much time left. It’s gorgeous. The tannins are mostly resolved but there’s still a touch of pucker on the finish providing a nice framing to the fruit. Also some acidity providing structure and tension.
The mouthfeel is incredible. Love the fruit. Black currant pinch, blackberry, coffee, with kirsch and black tea.
This bottle was my first experience with Hunnicutt. It and
@Jason and Jennie ‘s reviews led to me joining the club. It’s my favorite club because of both the wine and the people. Tonight is a good wine night. Nice work @Justin Stephens

Il Borro

Lamelle Toscana Chardonnay 2022

2022 vintage.
100 % Chardonnay in stainless steel.
No oak. This is not Château 2 by 4.
Very Chablis like.
Bright Macintosh, Gala, Cosmic Crisp, green apples and almond with a laser beam of acidity on the crisp, fresh finish. Your friends who hate Chardonnay….please pour them a glass of this.

Estate Merlot 2014

It is time for some Merlot on this #MerlotThursday. Let's bring Merlot back!

Dark ruby in color with a wide reddish rim.

Full-bodied and elegant with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with red and black fruits, cedar, vanilla, licorice, spices, chocolates, tobacco and herbs.

Long finish with fine grained tannins.

This is a delicious Merlot from Santa Clara Valley in California. Rich, yet elegant.

Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.

Good by itself, and will also pair nicely with a big piece of steak.

A blend of 85% Merlot, 10% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Malbec. Aged for 36 months in oak barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$24 (at release).

Domaine de Chantemerle

Fourchaume Chablis 1er Cru Chardonnay 2022

Pale lemon with aromas of stone and tropical fruits. Made from 40-year old vines, aged in 100% stainless steel. On the palate flavors of bright lemon citrus with crisp apple and peach notes. This medium-body wine has crisp acidity, good balance and nice mouthfeel, smooth long finish ending with creamy mineral texture. Very Nice! — 4 months ago

Chatham Vineyards

Church Creek Steel Chardonnay 2022

Well balanced, hints of under-ripe fruit — maybe melon and pear. Tastes like Chardonnay grape. Finish is interesting and slightly metallic. Quite nice, an unexpected surprise. — 5 months ago
