Old Vines California Zinfandel 2019

New release of Turley’s Old Vines Zin, one of the great bargains in wine in my book. Zinfandel from historic parcels across CA that deserve a single vineyard bottle but are just too small. This year’s opens with a musty, berry nose and a clear ruby color that don’t signal how rich the wine is. Mouth coating, violets, kirsch and pepper — loaded with flavor and a long finish. — 3 years ago

Rôtie Cellars

Southern Blend Washington State Grenache Blend 2016

After three unsuccessful Piemontese pulls to go with my Piemontese dish, I finally decided that the wine pairing gods were sending me a signal, so like Justice William O. Douglas, I went west, [not so] young man. And this Grenache-based blend was very nice. Nose had warm, mossy stones, warm kirsch, roasted herbs and campfire. Mouthfilling fruit on entry, but very quickly turns savory and minerally. A bit more tannic than previous vintages I’ve had of this wine. — 3 years ago

Havlin Vineyard Pinot Noir

Well bodied, yet light, for a Pinot Noir. Love the historical significance too. — 4 years ago

St. Joseph Blanc White Rhone Blend 2018

A decent but very lean Marsanne with little signal from Marsanne, not to speak Rousanne — 2 years ago

Venge Vineyards

Signal Fire Calistoga Zinfandel

Very dark red color. Powerful earthy blackberry nose. Aromatic blackberry taste with a little leather and cedar. Smooth and slightly sweet. This is the 2017 - app currently bugged and won’t let me enter it. — 3 years ago

Nepente di Oliena Riserva Cannonau

Cannonau? More like cannon-wow! Concentrated fruits, tobacco box, definitely showing its age well! — 4 years ago
