I like to drink a Kwak once in a while because it brings back good memories of times my friends and I were very much into Belgian beers 👌🏻 — 4 years ago

Flora Springs

Trilogy Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2011

9.1

A bottle that holds a lot of sentimental meaning, this was the first “nice” bottle of wine my wife and I bought together shortly after we got engaged in 2015. We went to Napa a few days later and attended the Flora Springs Trilogy release party (which we ended up doing 6 times in a row). While iced-in here in TX this week, we decided to open this bottle that we’ve had for almost 8yrs exactly to the day. One of the things I love about wine is the ability to attach memories to bottles!

Right off the bat, this is classical 2011 Napa. It has a distinct green streak down the middle of the palate. Flora Springs was able to get the fruit semi-ripe which balanced out the lean and mean acidity. I have no qualms with 2011 Napa (and have found some to be absolutely incredible). I can appreciate a wine that speaks to the vintage, like this one. At roughly 12yrs, this is integrated. Oak is in the background, with cherry pipe tobacco, cherry cordial and underripe blackberries. Smooth and light bodied on the palate. Not getting any better, I suggest enjoying now.

St. Supéry Estate Vineyards

Élu Napa Valley Red Blend 2014

This is great (but I am adding a point for nostalgia). I first tasted Elu on my 20th anniversary (which was many years ago). My wife and I were in an elegant restaurant and, after telling the waiter the occasion - which astonished him since we were in Los Angeles at the time, where very few marriages last that long - he said, “Try the Elu, it’s INSANE!” Tasting cassis, blueberries, plums, chocolate, and a bit of coffee. Lovely wine and lovely memories! — 5 years ago

Château Léoville Barton

Saint-Julien Red Bordeaux Blend 2011

We’re having the last 2011 Leoville tonight. This is always a wine for celebrating with. A traditional Saint-Julien wine of the finest quality. This 2011 vintage has great purity, concentrated fruit and serious structure. Classic cassis, brambly dark fruit deliciousness and deft use of oak are masterfully woven together into a seamless #grandcruclassé I can’t wait to have a few more glasses while this rain sets in for the weekend 🍷 #saintjulien #leovillebarton #memories — 4 years ago
