San Saba Vineyard Syrah 2019

Big, rich, earthy with a very subtle fecal (Brett?) note in its aromas and on the palate, acidity seems a little low, alcohol (14.6%) shows in the medium-long finish, very good domestic Syrah. — 4 days ago

San Antonio Winery

Cardinale American Sweet Red Blend

Sweet wines are normally not my favorite but I wanted to try this and expand my palate and I wasn’t disappointed 🙂 it has a nice flavor and is not bubbling at all. A good wine for a great price point which balances out the table. — 3 months ago

Land of Saints

San Luis Obispo County Pinot Noir 2021

Big juicy fruit aromas with underlying herbs (oregano and others... I need to work on my herb aromas), tart and juicy black cherry and herbs on the palate, with a bit of body for a Pinot. Will be perfect with tritip off the Traeger tonight! And pork tenderloin on Monday. But 13.6%, yikes! Too easily drunk for that. — a day ago

Calleri Vineyard Negrette 2013

Dark with a slightest of rusty-brown edge on the deep maroon center. Hint of funk. Cooked plum fruits and fresh herbal stuff. Flavors are very ‘winey’. Apple- black berry baked dessert with a hint of chocolate mint. Tannins are tongue dry. This has some character. Fleshy. Rustic. Fun. Not sure what the standard for Negrette is, but this is an interesting bottle of unfamiliar wine. — 3 months ago

Force of Nature Red Blend 2020

Recommend to me as a cheap crowd pleaser and it sure holds up. Full of fruit and fairly sweet—great for a movie night with friends but would be disappointing alone. — a month ago

San Simeon

Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Wow. Big fan of this Cab. It’s robust, but not overbearing. Great red fruits, but not jammy or “sweet”. This is a great stand alone red or great with some dark chocolate. — a month ago
