Snapping Turtle
Dom Pérignon
Brut Champagne Blend 2012
Way too young… but fully enjoyable at this stage. Not much nose… green apple and pear… wonderful balance! Wondering where this will go , but a joy with halibut and salmon in a state where laws make drinking problematic. Assume this will close up like a sea turtle, but lots of pleasure already. Look for a competitive price… but stock up. — 3 years ago

Turtle Rock Maturin James Berry Vineyard Syrah Mourvedre 2017
PERFECTION!
A beautiful split of 50% Syrah and 32% Graciano and 18% Grenache all from the James Berry Vineyard. This full-bodied wine was fermented with whole clusters and barrel aged for two years in 50% new French oak. Deep blackberry fruit, rich and layered flavors of cassis and licorice with a subtle background meatiness. Drinking nicely on release, yet will evolve gracefully for over a decade.

Super fun to drink this with some age on it. Went perfect with the turtle soup. Slight oxidation but the fruit is still alive and kickin. — 4 years ago

So warm and inviting. It’s big and high alcohol but somehow not excessive at all. Wonderful texture. Warm spicy aromas, dark plum, cherry and cola. Very nice ! — 2 years ago
