Michael Mara Vineyard Sonoma Coast Chardonnay 2018

Twin’s 7th Birthday Party!

Lively wine that has years left in it. Lemon and citrus fruit are paired with minerals on the nose and palate. Medium depth and finish. Going to age my other bottles more.

Yount Mill Vineyard Pinot Meunier 2018

Better than I expected. Super interesting bottling from the good folks at Mathiasson. Only 11.7%. Quite light on its feet, with just a bit of fruit - more earth. Good acid. Surprisingly good pairing with a pork chop. — 2 months ago

Possibly the last bottle of Rose this year. Lovely dark salmon color. Consistent wine throughout, see previous notes of other vintages. Probably a little past prime. — 2 months ago

Devorah Vineyard Pinot Noir Nebbiolo 2017

On day 1, I wasn’t that impressed. On day 3, this is really singing. The red fruit aromas go on and on - one of those wines you could just keep smelling. A bit less acid than I was hoping for, but I agree with Matthiasson’s winemaker note: “the Nebbiolo is unmistakable on the finish, with the silky but firm tannins and noble bitterness” — 2 months ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2013

Probably would have been better with a decant but opened this to replace a corked wine and so it goes. 13.5% Napa cab. Always appreciate the matthiasson style with wines like this. Velvety with deep red and purple fruit. Great acid and a nice finish. Quite a lot of sediment. — 2 months ago
