Columbia Valley Malbec 2020

Purple red, moderately extracted pigment. A tad tart, red currant nose, plum with some cherry and red currant in mouth, needs food. Light skin astringency on finish. No tobacco box notes, so a subdued Malbec. Previous vintages have been better, to my reckoning. Still, decent value for a table red. After 90 minutes some raspberry creeps into the flavor profile. Still a tad too tart. — 8 months ago

Ded. reckoning No. 3 Walla Walla Valley Red Blend 2004

2004 Ded. Reckoning Red Wine, Washington State

A negotiant blend of cab franc and petite Vendot made by Bunch grass in Walla Walla. Great stuff with nice age. Tastes like a nice Bordeaux.

Wonderful blend of dried fruits, new shoes, Xmas spice, cinnamon and sugar. Very well balanced and really coats the mouth. Lingers too. — 8 years ago

Gruet Winery

Brut Champagne Blend

Nice sparkler - tiny bubbles, good acidity, malic, lactic, citric, great length of apple flavor with a hint of lime and lemon, but another hint: it’s made in Albuquerque, New Mexico, USA, not France. My friends from that state always remind me how great this winery is. So, drink up (like those friends of mine do) with some New Mexican green chile stew, with a fried egg on top. Side of joe with some piñon nuts if you like. Perfect brunch in my reckoning... And a hint of toasted brioche in the aftertaste? That almost makes it seem “French”, doesn’t it? — 3 years ago

L'Ecole No. 41

Old Vines Columbia Valley Chenin Blanc 2016

Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Floral and vanilla aromas, with hints of wet wool and sun-dried linen. Good acid, lemon, peach and apple flavors, slightly bitter finish. Varietally on point, bone dry but fruity to my reckoning — 4 years ago

San Andreas Fault Pinot Noir

Snagged this Sonoma North Coast 2014 fine thing at my local shop, in Morehead City, NC. Did same with a Jersey Mike's turkey sub sporting everything but for pickles. As corporate as that might read, I nonetheless suggest you do same - or something similar thereto. Most know how groovy Pinot Noir is with turkey, so, whether you have access to a crazy cool loaf of northern Cali sour dough and a fresh turkey from the wild or you are doing a JM #7, like me on another coast, this maroon draped fineness will likely turn your head, tilt the bottle, and pour over and over as you work your way through a full-benefit sandwich drenched by this gorgeous liquid lady bathed in boysenberry, cherry and blueberry that has snuggled with seemingly new but proper oak wrapped in Merlin's seaborne magic mist lending the upper oceanside forest's wet, wild spice exaggerated with each spin and spill that clings and lingers righteously reckoning with Quicksilver's vintage plea - " have another hit..."
