Annette's Reserve Redwood Valley Zinfandel 2002

2002; Father's Day 2022
👃 Dried blackberries, dried blueberries, over-ripe black cherry, crushed dark chocolate | 👅 Black cherry & strawberry syrup reduction, over-ripe nectarine skin, dark chocolate sauce, light tar notes, acidity/tannins persists with a long, round finish. Satisfying.

Cork pulled for slow oxidation, 11H rest at time of notes.

The end of the line for our Annette's stock, starting life in our cellar as a 4-pack back in Nov. 2005 ($22.50), this has been an enjoyable run.
Paired to homemade chocolate lava cake. 🤤

A quick googling points to a sub AVA of Mendocino…. Too many AVA’s to keep up.

Destino Fifth Empire

Vinho Verde White Blend 2021

This is Vinho Verde, not Douro. Bright and clear beige gold. No fizz. Light nose and light-bodied bright palate of underripe pear and concrete block. Firm acidity (of course) and medium long finish(surprisingly). Vinho Verde without the fizz makes a wonderfully light and bracing white for seafood or summer sipping. Drink now. — 9 months ago

Redwood Valley Petite Sirah 2016

Heady wild black fruit. Minimal oak and air influence. It holds its fruit tight, but clear and clean. I think this will be magic in ten years. — 3 years ago
