1hr+ decant. Young wine! Dark red color with purple rims. Dark cherries, anise, and maybe sweet plums? Deep wine, with lots of Syrah and Spanish/Portuguese elements. Age will make this even better. — 6 days ago

Levels above others. This one we decanted and it made a difference. Elements of Rutherford but still not as dusty. Earthy and complex. Liked this. — a month ago

I am a huge fan of his Rieslings and have been for a long time. One of the bottles which i will actually take back to Germany just for fun. And as a reference for CA riesling.

Yes, his Rieslings are probably my favorite in California. This one showed beautifully last night with a delicious Chinese dinner.

Dancing Bear Ranch Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2010

From magnum. Tasted perfect with so much fruit and balanced with some wood, spice, and good tannin. Felt like it was perfect and didn’t really change a ton over a few hours of air. Great celebration wine. — 2 months ago

Pagani Ranch Sonoma Valley Zinfandel Blend 2016

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of a couple of hours. The 2016 Pagani Ranch pours a deep ruby with near opaque core; medium+ viscosity with light staining and some signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of red and black brambles, toasted coconut, dill, wood, baking spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with medium tannins and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long and tart. This is in a lovely spot yet, it still exhibiting quite a bit of freshness so I expect this will be quite long-lived. Drink now through 2031+. — 2 months ago
