Plumpjack

Napa Valley Merlot 2022

2022 vintage. Hardly as bigg or explosive as the 2021 effort, this goes lean but not mean. Oh sure, there’s hints of a trail to follow yet you may need to refine/practice your compass and map work so as not to get lost. A bit more of the delicate side with a subtle, enduring finish. Pay attention to avoid the search and rescue. 05.14.25 — 2 days ago

Napa Valley Syrah 2022

2022 vintage. Medium body. I swear at one point, this smelled like 1978 new Cadillac Eldorado interior leather seats. Oh, when those hitherto buried scents come a calling…11.20.24. — 6 months ago

Francis Ford Coppola Winery

Diamond Collection Black Label Claret California Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

No detailed notes. Just a good drink now budget Cabernet from California which drinks to its price point. Blackberry and dark chocolate. A Coppola movie has more complexity 😎 — 4 months ago

Allomi Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

3.0. Napa Valley Cab with deep fruits and complex tannins, but some dullish lingering taste of earthen flavors perhaps from the chaparral. On sale for $32.49, regularly $37.99. — 6 months ago

Light amber. Beautifully settled and rounded. Hints of berry fruit, some brioche notes, dried apricot, honey. Still vivacious and bright but so complex and long. Delicious. — 5 months ago
