1980 Kalin cab from Santa Barbara...anyone know what vineyard??? Perfectly stored bottle. Balanced, with minimal tertiary aromas but what is there has tobacco and menthol. Fruit still very present. Nice wine that came home to SB County. — 9 years ago

I'm a sucker for Kalin. Well stored, I think they last forever, both the reds and whites.

This and the fait main needed air! 2nd day after corking it yesterday. Much improved. The kalin wines were done-zo today. Great yesterday though. This has the same color as those 2001 kalins. — 7 years ago

@David L I had some Kalin chards from the 80s recently and they were (2/3) still going strong. The Vineyard for this Kalin chard is right down the street from me but they have no winery. Lucky enough, the upscale Chinese restaurant downtown has the Kalin wines by the glass all the time.

@Jason Oliver Enjoy reading that. Next time I'm in town I'll stop by for a glass . Best-

Preparing my wine contribution for saturday's festivities. Showing some friends around livermore wineries so picked out some wines to show the terroir. These are my top 5 livermore wineries. And a couple napa wines for dinner as well.
