Old Soldier Road Tephra Ridge Vineyard Merlot Blend 2019

This inky, Merlot-dominant blend is a full-on Goth wine: dark currants, dark cherries, dark blueberries…

The oak is restrained and the jamminess is less than in recent releases. A bit of decanting helps to reduce the jam factor a lot.

I’m still not completely sold on the “new and improved” Langtry wine style, but I see this as a solid step in the right direction, perhaps someday restoring Old Soldier Road to its former greatness.

Langtry North Coast Meritage Blend 1997

Out of magnum. Your nose is greeted by plums and hints of vanilla. In the mouth silky dark fruit with well integrated oak and acid. Definitely Bordeaux like in its development. — 8 years ago

Emotionally this bottle for me and my family was "11" Given to my family by a dear friend and wine mentor when he closed his restaurant . Unfortunately he died way two young. Never failed to open a special bottle when my family celebrated a special occasion. '99 DRC Duvault, '59 Gaunoux Corton Renardes, ' 92 Rousseau Clos de Beze.

I'll walk down to my cellar sometimes and pull bottles of wine that bring back so many memories. When I eventually do drink them, I'm always afraid those memories will fade away. What an emotional story… here's hoping you're able to think of the positive also as you enjoyed drinking it.

Langtry Road Claret Napa County Zinfandel Blend 1981

Bramble goodness. Held up real well with a steak. Served in smaller tulip glasses, great call doesn’t need air. A different era of Napa — 6 years ago

Delicious, more full-bodied rose. Very beautiful in color. — 8 years ago

Guenoc

Langtry California Meritage Blend 1992

1992 from magnum. Cork was crumbly, and first to show was American oak on the nose. After decanting it's really fleshed out and I almost called it old world blind. A great pairing for pork tacos. — 9 years ago

Victorian Claret North Coast Red Blend 2016

Guenoc/Langtry are constantly changing their labels and branding, not that this is confusing to their consumers or anything 😾

Still, this Claret is reliable vintage after vintage; a triumph of the vinting and mixing arts over the slings and arrows thrown by outrageous nature.

This wine has the expected slight oak with cherry mocha fruits and a smooth drinkable body.

Serpentine Meadow Petite Sirah 2006

Darkest red color and a sweet, mature bouquet (2006 drank in 2015). Complex mouthfeel would be wonderful with lamb and heavy meaty dishes. Plummy and dark berry notes. — 9 years ago
