Mas des Capitelles Vieilles Vignes Faugères Red Blend 2021

Red to dark red fruits, cherry, raspberry and pomegranate, garrigue, and singed black schiste stone/mineral notes, lavender florals too. The palate is medium bodied, with intense flavors that are lightning it's feet. I am a fan of Faugeres wines and it's rare for me to try a new one like this one. — 4 months ago

Anjou Chenin Blanc 2018

Like drinking lightning bolts ⚡️ Ripe green pear, white peach, tart citrus, zest and pith, citrus blossom, tea leaves, crushed chalk, a layer of spring honey just barely. Tense on day one with electric acidity. Day 2 showing more aromatic complexity and a kiss of breadth on the palate. So much acid and rocks. Day 4 still fresh as a daisy — 5 years ago

California Grenache 2015

Ruby in color with medium intensity and a wide reddish rim.

Medium plus in body with medium acidity.

Very dry on the palate with nice complexity.

Showing black cherries, spices, light oak, licorice, chocolates, tobacco, herbs, earth, light vegetables, pencil lead and peppercorn.

Long spicy finish with fine grained tannins and tangy raspberries.

This 9 year old Grenache from California is drinking very nicely now. Light and engaging with a nice mouthfeel. Elegant, spicy and easy drinking.

Good right out of the bottle, and so much better after 2 hours. I did not decant it and let it open up in the glass.

I had this vintage 4 years ago, and decided to give it a few more years in the bottle to mature, and see how it evolves. Good call on my part. It is really tasty now. So much better.

I gave it a light chill and had it with light appetizers.

A small production of only 10 barrels.

14.5% alcohol by volume.

91 points.

$32 (at release).

Sur Le Sentier du Clou Saint-Aubin Chardonnay 2014

Lightning level reduction and acidity. But with a warm body of integrated oak. Tasted Grand Cru level. So lucky to have experienced this. — 2 years ago

Pinot Noir 2019

Delicious BC Pinot from the Canyonview Vineyard. Strawberries, hay, mushrooms and earthy notes surround the palette. Love Lightning Rock wines…small vineyard who take extreme pride in their craft. — 2 years ago

Lightning Bolt Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Beautiful wine. Silky, slightly smoky and easy to drink. So often you hear fruit forward, it is not. Fruit on the end makes it juicy and happy. 😎🍷🇺🇸 — 5 years ago
