Double Lucky

8 Red Blend 2021

2021. This wine caused the most discussion during our dinner. Complex dark fruits, leather, and blood aromas did open up a bit and it paired better with some of the lamb dishes than others. — 2 months ago

Texturé

Lucky Well Vineyard Chardonnay 2016

@Joe Lucca was gracious to set up a virtual tasting for the Wine Nerd Herd with the team from Texture. It was a great evening. The 16 Lucky Well spent over two hours in the decanter-it needed more time. Tightly wound wine that need time to uncoil. Striking texturally with high acid and touches of oak on the finish. I found the almond paste and orchard fruit profiles very pleasing. I taste the attention to detail in this wine. — 6 years ago

Marcassin

Marcassin Vineyard Chardonnay 2010

Dan was being very curmudgeonly as he could taste butterscotch in this wine. I say he was right. I'd ALSO say I'll take every last bottle of this he has left and will even volunteer to take them away personally! Poured a medium amber color. Notes of butter and herb om the nose. Entry is overripe stone ground fruits with a nice weighted base. Butterscotch in front and middle but trails away in the finish where this wine just kind of dances more with a tarragon and peach kind of note. The only white I dared to try with the braised pork and pickled peppers. Although neither was a perfect complement, I was shocked at how this one definitely didn't run away! A true Marcassin! If you have these, I think I'd drink now. — 7 years ago

Butterscotch was the common theme around this and while it was there, I don’t see it as a fault when it’s a part of a wine (but when it dominates a wine, different story). This had some signature Marcassin wax, sea salt and roasted & honeyed stone fruits. Delicious.

Saint-Joseph Syrah 2020

What a difference a little time and air makes 🤪. A little game a little iron and pepper and black fruit that became more expressive as time passed. Light and elegant. I think I got lucky. — 9 months ago

Monte Rosso Sonoma Valley Zinfandel 2020

A 25 year old gem pulled by Joel Peterson himself. I was one of the lucky ones to snag a mixed case of his cellar selections from 1991-2013 for BD16. Still going strong with such incredibile fruit. Gonna share them of course but sneak a Coravin taste here and there … — a year ago

@Eric Urbani Nice purchase. I unfortunately missed it. Enjoy.

Marchesi Antinori

Tignanello Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2003

Deep Ruby with concentrated aromas of ripe black fruits and earthy floral spice. The palate shows rich blackberry and tart raspberry, complex, good acidity, balance and depth with ultra-smooth tannins. The long finish ended with an earthy and woody spice, cacao, and mushroom, very smooth. I am guessing that this wine is at its peak, so if you are lucky enough to find a bottle, get the corkscrew! — 6 years ago

Tasted blind chez Roulot, and of course it is an 04. Vibrant acidity, unfurling now past a tight reduction into an open, maturing mix of rich citrus, tea, spice, stone. Lovely and lucky — 8 years ago
