Ravenswood Winery

Monte Rosso Sonoma Valley Zinfandel

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 … — 11 days ago

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

Ridge Vineyards

Monte Bello Chardonnay 2020

This was more elegant and less flavorful than expected

Very light fruit and minimal oak

Paired with giant 12oz lobster tails. Happy Armenian Christmas!

Crazy thing happened with the pairing. This wine tasted like a fresh shucked raw oyster. Dead on after a bite of lobster, like eating an oyster chaser. Wild.

Sa'etta Chianti Classico Riserva Sangiovese Blend 2020

Nice but not sure it was quite worth the $40. Gave it 5 hours of bottle open air and that helped, but it ideally needs several more years to really come into its own. There is very nice fruit, and good acid - but the tannins are a bit chunky and unresolved at this point. One to wait on for sure. — 14 days ago

Bodega Noemia de Patagonia

Rio Negro Malbec 2020

Medium ruby , violet ruby rim . Lively and freshly fruited , wild strawberry , red plum , spiced cherry . On the palate more of the spiced cherry , red plum and raspberry notes . Light herbal touch . Quite fresh acidity and slightly gritty tannins . Red cherry , herbal medium length finish . This is showing well but will probably age quite well over the next 5-8 years . Really good freshness with elegance and drive . — 3 months ago

Tenuta Lena di Mezzo Amarone della Valpolicella Classico Corvina Blend 2021

Light, fruity, balanced. Acidity is moderate, tanins are low and unactive. Nice. Don't wait too much, but really nice as a better table wine accompanying meats, duck, pasta. — 6 days ago

Cranberry + perfumed baking spices, cinnamon, leather.

What a robust structure of tannins and acid. Really lovely and elegantly made.

Recommended by a friend who loves the producer. Stellar story.
