Stella Retica Sassella Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2017

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of three days; better after an hour of air and best on Day 2 but held up well through Day 3. The 2017 pours a pale garnet with transparent core; medium viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with gorgeous notes of bright red brambles, rose bushes, alpine herbs, rocky earth and a wonderfully balanced combination of cool and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium+ tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Remarkable stuff. Drink now through 2037. Thanks for the assist @Lyle Fass — 5 months ago

Margaret River Chardonnay 2019

Very pleased with this wine! Stone fruit, papaya, florals, almonds, minerals and mild honey and vanilla. 45 min decant. Butter was present on the nose but surprisingly not on palate!
To me this shows more Burgundy in style 👍..appreciate the 13% alc.
Apparently this is
#25 of Wine Enthusiast top 100 of 2021. It also received a rating of 94 from ? Every time I pick up the glass it changes!

LaStellina Okanagan Valley Rosé 2019

Another great BC rosé that reminds me of the rosés of Provence. Made in small batches, it has tons of flavour and the minerality distinct to the Okanagan region. Pairs well with spicy food and strong cheese. Notes of cherry and other dark fruit with a slight hint of spice. — 6 years ago

Sweeter and Carbinated. It is actually much better than we expected. We would totally get again, just not try pairing it with Prime Rib. Lol. — 5 years ago

Stella Retica Riserva Sassella Valtellina Superiore Nebbiolo 2012

Rutabaga and charcoal and hen of the woods and cherry garcia. Yeah there is a little VA but it’s not intrusive. Maybe more wild than some of their other stuff but still that mountain freshness — 5 years ago

Stella Maris Sauvignon 2018

Sauvignon Blanc in a sun dress. Freedom to move. This is wild reductive lemon and white flowers and ripe tropicals. Sturdy but with viscosity and of course, plenty of acid. — 6 years ago

Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2008

06 & 08 side by side. 08 took a lot of air to come alive. Still quite stern. 06 more open. Sensed some va initially. It eventually straightened out and overtook the 08 — 6 years ago
