White Label Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
Bodegas y Viñedos Vega Sicilia
Valbuena 5° Ribera del Duero Tempranillo Blend 2018
Although not as prestigious as Unico, this Valbuena 5 was an absolute delight! Rich and balanced, it paired perfectly with fowl (pigeon). — a month ago

Like most 02’s this was showing beautifully — 2 months ago
Bodegas Juan Gil
(Silver Label) Jumilla Monastrell 2020
Similar to a cab sauv — strong aroma but not too strong on the palette. Not oaky which is great! Dad likes this one a lot. — 11 days ago
Veuve Clicquot Ponsardin
Yellow Label Brut Champagne Blend
Pale gold with fine bubbles. Blossom, apple, pear, tangerine, lemon, brioche, and toasted almond. Dry, medium body. Well-balanced acidity with a crisp, medium-plus finish. You can find this stuff almost anywhere these days. But I must say, I still like it.

Château Léoville-Las Cases
Grand Vin de Leoville du Marquis de las Cases Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2005
Medium ruby , wider light ruby rim . Touch more closed and mineral on the nose with, red currant , grafite , cedar . Quite aloof . On the palate this is quite strict , excellent refreshing acidity and very noticeable gritty tannin , more red fruits on the palate , red currant, cherry, cranberry hints alongside the cassis and mineral backbone . Very young , mineral , quite linear and saline . This shows a lot of intensity and salinity after a while in the glass , improves with time in the glass but really needs time in the cellar. Come back in 5 - 10 years , will show well for a further 10 perhaps 20 years. Very classic and aristocratic . — 2 months ago
Francis Ford Coppola Winery
Diamond Collection Black Label Claret California Cabernet Sauvignon 2021
No detailed notes. Just a good drink now budget Cabernet from California which drinks to its price point. Blackberry and dark chocolate. A Coppola movie has more complexity 😎 — 5 days ago
Wynns Coonawarra Estate
Black Label Coonawarra Cabernet Sauvignon 2022
rich, bitter & sweet well balanced — 2 months ago
Scott@Mister A’s-San Diego
2021 vintage. Medium body but filled with old-school passion, love and flavors. More than a hint of mint on the thrashing, tannic finish. Previous, similarly priced efforts from this producer left me indifferent/cold. It takes a lot to awaken certain things these days but this one got the overly jaded California Cab palate fired up again. 01.15.25. — 21 days ago
