Kick-On Ranch Riesling 2019

One of the best american Rieslings out there. The Riesling was planted in 2007. Kick On Ranch is just a few miles West of Los Alamos (CA) , getting close to the ocean and Vandenberg Air Force Base. 120 cases. 13.5%. Plenty of acidity, 🍯 , botyris? , fresh cut garden hose. Quite herbal. Oregano. Tatomer’s top of the line offer. He learned the trade in Austria 🇦🇹, Wachau region. This 2019 is very very good. Not Mosel just different - and perhaps quintessential Californian. — 2 days ago

Peeps say Smith-Madrone but no. Just no. I'll stick with Graham's whites.

Meeresboden Vineyard Grüner Veltliner 2023

2023 vintage. Wanted the intensity of previous vintages tasted but wasn't getting it on the back palate. Still, would hit this if encountering in the wild. 01.29.25. — 3 months ago

Sta. Rita Hills Syrah 2019

2019 vintage. A little cooler and less demonstrative than expected for Santa Rita Hills. Tight but nicely made. Needs time or a generous decanting. — 3 years ago

Heidi Santa Barbara County Pinot Noir 2015

Big - lots of whole cluster - quite fruit driven. Just 24 cases made. 13%. This will need so much more time for the fruit to mellow out. Made in honor of Grahams daughter birthday. I hope she enjoys it once she is 16 ahem. I mean 21. Quite herbaceous now. Cardamom, elderberry, celery. Not necessarily my style but this could be quite nice in years to come - made to age! — 3 years ago

Sanford & Benedict Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2021

Oozing strawberry, raspberry, currant, and blackberry fruit with juicy acids and a prominent but not overbearing spiciness. This just needs more time to settle in and integrate as it’s all primary currently. Give air or pair with hearty food if drinking soon. From the historic Sanford & Benedict Vineyard. — 3 months ago

Küstennebel Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2021

2021 vintage. Pretty and floral in both the nose and the mouth with a cherry start and a strawberry finish. A bit of dirt/earth mid-palate to temporarily derail the beauty contest. Decently long finish. — 2 years ago

Östlich von Eden Riesling 2017

Was blown away with the layers of acid and fruit... easy to mistake for Alsace grand cru. — 4 years ago
