Cult Saga Wines
Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017
Cherry with a hint of spice. Thick aromas (smokey?) With just a hint of floral? Dry and well balanced. — 3 years ago
Domaine Michel Lafarge
Clos des Chênes Volnay 1er Cru Pinot Noir 1999
2022/8. This was another somewhat mysterious entry in the saga of my cellar. On opening, it was in just about the oddest, most awkward shape of anything I’ve had in quite some time - hard, spicy and herbal with no fruit or perfume. With lots of air and coaxing it did begin to round into shape, with the last glass feeling like the most together. I don’t know if the cellar is just too cold (trapping wines in a prolonged awkward adolescence) or there is something less benign going on... — 2 years ago
Maurizio B Martino
Neropasso Originale Rosso Veneto Corvina Blend 2018
Mr. Staran and Maan Saab are competing to be the best novice sommelier for the day. I heard Mr. Staran said "there is hint of vanila" and immediately rebutted by Maan Saab "no I don't think so". The story continues, lets see where they can find ground zero for the night. Both agreed there is a hint of citrus and its mild, wet wine ;) (good sign of baichara).. Apparently they came up this at the same time where this wine would work wonders on a female companion ..Owhh well what can I say about my buddies, both are in their own imaginations of thinking this wine could get them lucky for the night.. Unfortunately for that to even take place "you need to get her on the table first, boys".
Another saga from the Charcuterie Boys, all fun and laughters, no offense here folks.. — 2 years ago
Blackstock
A Family Reserve Ace Georgia Red Blend 2005
Shocking saga continues with this unfamiliar red blend. Touriga, Mourvèdre, and Merlot, which is named after the Harrises’ three children, Austin, Chandler, and Eliza. Well balanced, berries and dark fruits with a bit of heat on nose carrying through to palate with a tinge of sweetness and into finish. Again a shocking wine from Georgia the State. — 3 years ago

The Brangelina saga must be heating up because I just snagged a case of their surprisingly good rose at Trader Joe’s for $11 a bottle LOL — 3 months ago
