Day 24 of the 2022 Whisky Advent Calendar. Very smoky at first but with a caramel depth coming through. Intensely peaty with a cocoa and mint layer under it and lots of spices. Toasty nutty finish. — 3 years ago
My curiosity got this best of me on this. Nice nose right off the jump and only needed about 30 minutes of air to open up. Red fruit dominant and a bit thin on the finish at this stage. A nice bottle, but a couple notches below the Lore and Lamb, and I prefer the Panek as well. — 6 years ago
Way too much wax! But great Mag other than that. Glad I held it longer than my first bottle. Much better than the Proprietary blend.
Great finish as it opens up, definitely reminds me of Rivers Marie Lore & Herb Lamb

@William J. Segui , if you can get me another mag of 16 I’ll find this David guy for you💪🏻 he’ll be sleeping with the fishes by midnight.

Thanks @William J. Segui it was David who actually told me about your wines and convinced me to give them a try. But the offer still stands 😴🐠Cellared since original release by wine benefactor. Lore has it Pacific Wine Company used to buy from G-D direct and bottle under their own label. Be on the lookout. Fantastic aromatics, a touch of Brett with some air, and gorgeous elegance, finesse. — 8 years ago
Learned helplessness. Man 12%. And 20$ or so. I just can’t help it - this is the best Rosé ever. Unfiltered. This was really shaken not stirred when I traveled about town before it was popped. Tart, rhubarb gal-lore!!! Lemon. Typically I hate Rosé’s which often taste like nothing / this ain’t it. — 3 months ago

Wonderful Lore @stellabellawines ~ and a ridiculous value of a #wine!
Honeysuckle & acacia blossom, green tomato, peach & apricot, leans apple pie then switches back with a saline smack!

Dinner with Lore♥️ — 2 years ago
Gorgeous, medium-bodied Zinfandel from some of the most remote vineyards in all of Napa, gown organically on Mt. Veeder’s volcanic soils, at 2,100 ft. altitude, and made by California cult producer Lore Olds - Bob Travers’ assistant winemaker at Mayacamas back in the 1970s. Earthy, mineral and balanced. Blackberry, peppery smokiness, hints of nail polish or marker — 6 years ago
Just concluded our annual Fall seclusion at our cabin in the Rangeley lakes region of Maine, mobile service up there is mostly non-existent, after several days I am posting again. Notes are somewhat brief, as my focus is relaxing and watching the Common Loons swimming and diving in the cove in front of our camp.
Nose has dusty cherry, plum skin, red/green pepper mash, dry crushed slate, some raspberry but trending more to vegetal aspects.
Palate has ripe plum, ripe raspberry, some blueberry, dried blackberry, neutral (light) oak influence with almost fully resolved tannins.
The lore of Cameron Hughes wines is hard to confirm, supposedly this Lot is from the NV Stag's Leap District, but like most of these wines they are clouded in some mystery as to their exact origins, which was the intent of the winemaker. What I can confirm, this wine was much better 10 years ago than today. An interesting experience. — 7 years ago
