Shy Susan

Dakota Shy

T-E-N Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

I love Dakota Shy wines, and this is an excellent one. Decanted for several hours. Inky dark purple. Full-bodied, rich, and complex. Dark chocolate, plums, cassis, and a hint of vanilla. Long finish. Fabulous now, but still has a lot of cellaring potential. — a month ago

"Réserve du Dumas" Oakville Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Tannins have really softened up. Fruit is very ripe - blackberry, red cherry. Raisin, fig, plum. Seems to me to be meeting its end of drinking window. Still quite delicious. — 5 months ago

Napa Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2022

Great taste, less filling. All the crispness of an excellent SB but with some boldness and more flavor than your average bear — 10 months ago

Mise En Place Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Just received the 2021s and thought I’d open a bottle. Decanted 15 minutes. Big red fruit - cherry, plum. Lighter bodied for a cab. Fruit is overpowering and just on the edge of too ripe. Tannins are soft with a slightly grippy feel. Good value. Someone rated this 97 which seems a bit high to me. — 8 months ago

Les Picasses Chinon Cabernet Franc 2014

Worth a check in at 10 years. Always an outstanding nose. Needed hours of air and still pretty shy, fruit in particular is closed. Paired with NY strip tonight. Have half a case left of this vintage and will check in again in a couple years. — a year ago
