Macchia

Lodi Old Vine Zinfandel 2022

A truly representation of an Old Vine Zin (Mohr Fry) from Acampo, Lodiis all about. Made out of 90+ year-old vines which provides a great amount of concentrated ripe cherry and abundance rich ripen red fruit flavors. Persistent and lingering to perfection point on the finish. Although is 15.8% abv, is warm with enough balance and structure. Oaky can be perceived medium-low as well. One of the top dogs of Macchia wines. — 2 years ago

Dom Pérignon

Brut Champagne Blend 2009

Quite nice with a distinctive brioche overtone. Full and round, May still need a few years. Been feeling lately like more distinctive profiles in the grower champs vs the big dogs (at big dog $$). — 3 years ago

Sleeping Lady Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

It is time for my #FridayCabernetfix.

Dark ruby in color with a short purple rim.

Fruity nose of black fruits with cedar, licorice, metals, light earth, herbs, spices, tobacco leaf and dark coffee.

Full-bodied and elegant, with medium acidity and long legs.

Dry on the palate with blackberries, black currants, plums, cooked cherries, vanilla, cedar, licorice, spices, dark chocolates, peppercorn, herbs and light black tea.

Long finish with soft tannins and tangy cherries.

This is a delicious Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa Valley. Fruit forward and somewhat subdued. Feels like a Left Bank Bordeaux.

This Single Vineyard Cabernet will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years.

Wine Enthusiasts 95 points. Robert Parker 93 points.

Elegant and good by itself or with food.

100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes were aged in (70% new) French oak barrels for 20 months.

14.3% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$150.

Kinsman Eades

Anjea Sleeping Lady Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

2018 Kinsman Eades Anjea… admittedly very young and still a little tannic, but unfurled a bit after time in the glass with a great nose and flavors of blackberries, blueberry pie, black cherries.. a hint of iron and herbs in the background! This will only get better with time! Even better the following day!! — 3 years ago

Ultreia Saint Jacques Mencía 2018

very confused 🙈 tasting.

black olives and black pepper screamed syrah. red fruit and jaminess called for granache. but medium + acidity added confusion.

i was gambling a south rhone blend but something felt very Spanish. 🧩

this is mostly mensia 🍇 with bastardo and granache tintorera.

medium + acidity
medium - tannins
medium + body

zippy fresh red fruit with some raspberry jam, black olives, black pepper and a bit of oak spices and green pepper on the side.

medium + 🎯

perfect bistro (or the Spanish equivalent term) wine.
paired lovely with roasted 🥔, veggie hot dogs and cabbage with tahini and feta style cheese.
worked great with the salty feta.

2 hours later it opened up nicely with tannins felt more and a silkier texture.

very hard to stop drinking it, slowly.
