Rorick Heritage Vineyard Mondeuse Rosé 2019

One of the best roses I’ve had in a while (and in the perfect setting). Vibrant, textural and expressive with watermelon, cherry, hibiscus and a touch of garrigue. It’s a shame I didn’t get a photo with the actual juice because the deep almost magenta color was 💣 but the bottle didn’t last long enough... — 6 years ago

That whole situation does look pretty perfect.

North Coast Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

This must be a great wine! I opened it for a family dinner and it all but disappeared before I could get a few ounces! Dark fruits and licorice with balanced tannins. I will have to buy more! — 7 years ago

Komorebi Vineyard Pinot Noir

Outstanding. While Pinot Noir typically speaks to a place, this one does not tell you that it is from California. Lovely age worthy Burgundy style Pinot. — a year ago

Queen of the Sierra Zinfandel Rosé Blend 2022

This deep-pink rosé made with whole-cluster Grenache, Tempranillo, and Zinfandel grapes is absolutely dynamite!

Produced by Forlorn Hope, from the organically-farmed Rorick Heritage Vineyard in the Sierra Foothills of Calaveras County, CA.

It bursts onto the palate with juicy watermelon, hibiscus, white tea, raspberry, strawberries and cream, opening up to a textural mouthfeel, made fresh with bright acidity. It’s delicious.

Cheers to high-quality, small-batch producers that are carving a new path in California!

Queen of the Sierra Rorick Heritage Vineyard Riesling Blend 2019

Strange wine. Very little fruit here, but a crazy amount of botanical herbs that reminds me of Chartreuse, jasmine, chamomile, slate, leafy greens, and maybe some spearmint. Not delicious but fascinating none the less. This will get someone out of their comfort zone real quick! — 5 years ago

Nacré Yount Mill Vineyard Sémillon 2012

I’m a believer in terroir, but this wine, which is an absolute ringer for Chablis, throws everything in question. If this were grown at Rorick with its limestone that would make sense, but semillon from the Napa valley floor? Out of the bottle it’s quite lithe, showing lemon and a bit of seashell minerality, but with an hour of air it begins to show some crisp apple and white stone fruit, and some white flower. Lovely, unusual wine. Enjoyed with grilled salmon and salad. — 6 years ago
