Proprietary Left Bank Rutherford Red Blend 2016

This was quite flavorful and interesting. It had some jam, blackberry, hints of leather and smoke. It had a nice mouthfeel and a medium finish. All in all this was the standout of the night, but still young. — 6 years ago

Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon

Fabulous Rutherford Cabernet Sauvignon. A ruby red/purple, it has both the dark red and black fruits. The tannins are smooth, with the acid well balanced....a smooth finish. Count me as a fan. — 7 years ago

Myriad Cellars

Round Pond Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Lighter in color for a 2019, more of a medium ruby. Nose is cherry pie, not tart cherries but sweet black cherry. A bit of dust and a lot of cedar chest. Great structure, smooth tannins, and medium to full-bodied. The lighter color fooled me into thinking this would be a lighter cab, but it packs plenty of punch. The finish lingers especially pumping those cedar notes throughout. — 5 years ago

Cayuse Vineyards

Bionic Frog Walla Walla Valley Syrah 2014

1st wine of 2021....had to pop something fun....jumped in the pond with the frog tonight!!

1.5 hour decant(little cloudy sediment). An alluring purplish magenta color. On the nose: expressive nose of dark cherry, campfire smoke, little Cayuse funk (luv it), vanilla toast, meaty, plum, floral. Taste: Wow! elegant, rich, juicy wine with mouth coating dark plum, bacon fat, soil, iron, and a smokey minerally cherry long finish. YUM, great start to the new year.
