Cider Ridge Vineyard Pinot Noir 2019

I tried this last year and it was a bit tight. Now drinking really well in late '23, even better after some breathing time.
New French oak gives it a nice spice balance to the fruit- rather persimmon like actually. Fair texture. Deliciously long finish accompanied by a nice acid kick that carries the spice. Maybe a little bit hot for my taste.

Grande Réserve Brut Champagne Blend

9.1

Champagne is for celebrating, not that I need a celebratory reason to open a bottle as I am hooked on champagne. 💉

However, after installing 27 solar panels and waiting an additional seven weeks for my Tesla, I/we have almost erased our carbon footprint. Finally picked it up today. I believe we all need to do our part to save the glorious vines that bring so much happiness to our lives. 🍷🥂👍

As for the Baron Fuentes, the is a very good Champange and is perhaps the best QPR out of Champagne at $24.99.

Bright lemon, lime, grapefruit w/ sugar, bruised red apple & pear, touch of ginger & cider, bread dough, baguette crust, sea spray, white spice with some palate heat, sea fossils, grey volcanic minerals, spring flowers, lilacs and yellow lilies. The acidity is bright, crisp and lively. The finish is smartly polished, well balanced and persistent for minutes.

Whoo hoo! So close to carbon free! 🍾🥂

Bending Branch Estate Vineyards Tannat 2019

This wine shows that Texas is now producing fine and complex wine. The grape is Tannat used a lot in wines from Uruguay and Chile. Full bodied and beautiful crisp red velvet color. Pleasant to the nose and palate. Best when it breathes. Texas wine makers are increasingly conscious about terroir and planting grapes that fit it. Nice and well structured that complements a rib eye grilled quite nicely. — 2 years ago

Leo Sparkling Apple and Grape Wine 2018

Amazing flavor and so complex! Kiwi, funk, apples, citrus, earth, herbs. This is my second vintage of trying this wine and I have to say both were stunning. This is the cider for natural wine lovers. — 4 years ago
