Home Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2009

Terrific red wine from the La Clarine Estate vineyard, reminds me a little of Domaine de Trevallon (Cab and Syrah, though here other grapes as well), big and rich still, showing just a tad of mature notes, long, persistent finish, hides its 14.5% ABV well, kudos to Hank!! — 6 months ago

@Tom Casagrande, in the early days of LCF, Hank would make 20-50 cases of this, I used to be able to get 3 bottles (I might have bought 6 a few times). I actually don’t know if Hank is making enough of this these past 10 or so years to sell it commercially, I know I have some 2011 (which I’ll report on soon), but not exactly sure the last vintage I was able to buy?!?!

Honeycomb, bread yeast, amazing acid and texture. Buttery but so acid. Good concentration. Unbelievable quality for the price. — 3 years ago

Sierra Foothills Zinfandel 2015

Lush Red fruit medley. Tart ripe with some overripe. Effervescent. Some carbonic pool toy like aromas. Moderate acid and mod minus alcohol. — 3 years ago
