Loving Cup Vineyard & Winery
Domaine François Raveneau
Chablis Chardonnay 2010
Not exactly exciting
At room temperature the wine became nearly aromatic
Not my cup of tea — 4 years ago
Argiano
Brunello di Montalcino Sangiovese 2016
2016: Solid Brunello as usual, with the distinct focus and structure of 2016 eventually opening up to more accessible cherry fruit, leather and bit o’ tar after 4 hours of air. Loving the 2016 Brunellos so far. $50. — 2 years ago
Dunn Vineyards
Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2005
Color - burnt red with some bricking and a bit cloudy—a savory look indeed! Nose - dark deep cherry, smoked meat, pencil lead, gravel and notes of mint, cream cassis vanilla and with a subtle funky spice at the tail end giving much character to the wine. Taste definitely does not disappoint—an immediate creamy feel and dark cherry, savory, spice initially hits the pallet followed by cocoa, graphite and a smoke like aged vanilla long finish. Dusty tannins linger long after each taste. Loving it!! — 4 years ago

Presented to me double blind, powerful peach and pineapple fruit cup with jalapeño and bright citrus fruit. Acid was medium+ and so was alcohol. I was between Riesling from Wachau or Sauvignon Blanc…when with the Austria call. Dang…Kim Crawford is making some fun wines with Loveblock. Drink now with hedonism. — a month ago
