My sister gave us this wonderful Sauvignon Blanc. Went great with grilled sea bass. — 2 hours ago
We had the 2016 Vintage on 6/23-24/22. This is a real good Sonoma PN. There were tastes of red current, pomegranate and cranberry. There is a brambly minerality as well. Over the last 18 mo., the tannins smoothed out nicely. A nice mouth feel and finish. — 7 days ago
Light, fresh, and bubbly. Very, very happy with this one! — 15 days ago
Actually quite nice. Not such a fruit bomb. At land sake. — 13 days ago

2013: Classic Vallpolicella, a “half Amarone” ripasso. Dense, inky, mouth-coating, full-bodied without too much sweetness and with some barnyard funk. I only wish it had a bit more grip: was more enjoyable early on when the tannins were more evident. Could be a function of the good-but-not-great vintage, but I slightly prefer Quintarelli for this kind of pocket change ($95, VR). — 11 days ago

This wine is the 2012 Sea Smoke Southing Sea Smoke Estate Vineyard Pinot Noir.
On the nose there is raspberry, cranberry, cherry, mushroom, clove, forest floor and earth.
On the palate I get plenty of raspberry, tart cherry, cranberry, clove, soft oak, mushroom and earth.
This is a medium bodied wine withe a smooth mouthfeel medium+ to high acidity and medium fine tannins that lead to a medium to medium + red fruit earthy finish. Definitely a beautiful wine and after 10 yeard of age is still fresh and youthful. I hope everyone's weekend has been fun and enjoyable as we look forward to another big week. Please stay safe and healthy. Nostrovia! 🍷🍷🍷🍷 — 25 days ago
