Amarone della Valpolicella Corvina Blend

Strong but good. Venice in St Mark’s square with Stephan, Kevin McLeod and Pat Beyer — 10 months ago

Foris Vineyards

Dry Rogue Valley Gewürztraminer 2019

Explosive aromatics of lavender, elder flower, tangerine peel and gooseberry. On the palate fresh citrus, bright acidity with a long finish. This wine would be easily confused with a great bottle from Alsace. Super refreshing with all the floral complexity that this varietal can elicit. Excellent wine. Thanks Pat for the recommendation! — 3 years ago

Château Palmer

Alter Ego Margaux Red Bordeaux Blend 2012

Ready to drink! Dark fruits take the center stage, lots of structure makes for a great pairing with meat (or Pat LaFrieda burgers - delicious!) Good to know the 2012s are accessible now! — 6 years ago

Badet Clément & Co.

Révélation Vin de Pays d'Oc Cabernet Merlot 1919

Color of purple with a bit cloudy copper tone on the rim, decent legs. Nose of dried strawberry and aldehyde, spicy, ripe grapes, a bit leather, vanilla, and oily pat. Nose is quite nice. Taste is mellow, almost no tannins with refined dark fruits sweetness, quite silky with hidden bittersweet zest. Aftertaste is medium with more vanilla and zest notes. Smooth one. — 3 years ago

Estate Cuvée Red Blend 1999

Lovely mature redfruits, solid still on the palate, hate that synthetic cork they used this vintage and another, but wine is still in pretty nice shape, bravo to Pat and Dave Coffaro for such a lovely blended Dry Creek Valley wine!! — 3 years ago
