Marqués de Murrieta

Dalmau Rioja Tempranillo Blend 2016

Vintage 2016 | Absolutely beautiful, st Julien frivolity, very intens and perfumed | paired with Boeuf Bourguignon | I did not recognize / determine this as Rioja, was obsessed with left bank Bordeaux in my head. Wine of the Night. For me unknown, but o man so good. — a month ago

Pinque Waiheke Island Rosé Blend 2022

The description: The 2022 Pinque has classic strawberries and cream characters along with watermelon and a touch of Szechuan pepper. The 2022 vintage was warm and dry and correspondingly this wine is relatively low in acid making for a very smashable wine, although like all our wines there is plenty of subtle complexity to delight the taster. Enjoy! The opinion: in total agreement.

Tapanappa

Wratton Bully Whalebone Vineyard Merlot Cabernet Franc 2008

Warm vintage, soft ripe fruit. Presents as young but very approachable with soft tannins, with liquorice and dark fruit prominent and tannins sitting in the background. An intriguing contrast to the Man O’ War blend alongside it. Very easy to enjoy but perhaps some element missing at this stage. — 3 years ago

Regusci

Estate Grown Block 3 Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

Deep ruby. Pungent nose. Funky on first sniff, but man o man the taste profile was incredible. Mellowed as the night wore on. Fruit was lush and polished. Yum. — 5 years ago

Rôtie Cellars

Southern Blend Washington State Grenache Blend 2016

After three unsuccessful Piemontese pulls to go with my Piemontese dish, I finally decided that the wine pairing gods were sending me a signal, so like Justice William O. Douglas, I went west, [not so] young man. And this Grenache-based blend was very nice. Nose had warm, mossy stones, warm kirsch, roasted herbs and campfire. Mouthfilling fruit on entry, but very quickly turns savory and minerally. A bit more tannic than previous vintages I’ve had of this wine. — 3 years ago

Right Bank Napa Valley Red Blend 2002

Trying another bottle of ‘02. Man o man. Still delicious and seems even better than other bottles from that case. A river of black cherry and blackberry cascading over the tastebuds. — 5 years ago
