Artist Series Small Lot GSM 2013

I really like this one. I am getting strong flavors of both raspberry and black current. Not super oaky but it is earthy. It feels thick and smooth as well. — a year ago

Label Artist Las Madres Vineyard Syrah 2016

Great nose. Long finish. Good mix of old and new world. (The Cat Somm liked it. If a wine is hot or off balance he hisses. If it’s correct he kisses. Even once tried to steal a lick of a Hirsch Pinot it was so smooth). — 3 years ago

The 2014 version of this wine blew my mind early in my wine journey. I can still taste it.

Wiens Family Cellars

Artist Series Crowded Red Blend 2017

Deep, wooden cherry notes flourish both before and after the first taste. The flavor is sophisticated, yet simple. Nothing of note to end, but nothing negative to say about the beginning and middle. A very solid experience. — 4 years ago

Woodward Canyon

Artist Series #27 Cabernet Sauvignon 2018

Really enjoyed the fruit, acid and tannins all working well together in this wine. $50 is a little high price point… I try to stay away from new world cab, but finding good producers like this is fun. — 3 years ago

Clos Pegase

Mitsuko's Vineyard Chardonnay 2014

The Clos Pegase label features Pegasus, painted circa 1890 by the French artist Redon. Pale lemon with aromas of fresh fruit and floral scents. On the palate apple and melon flavors, creamy with pronounced oak and citrus notes. Medium finish, good balance ending with fruit and oak character. Still tasting well. Good value! We just tasted beside a Stags Leap, Pegase won, and it’s $5 cheaper!! Nice!! — 4 years ago

Had this about a year ago. The Clos Pegase label features Pegasus, painted circa 1890 by the French artist Redon. Pale lemon with aromas of fresh fruit and floral scents. On the palate apple and melon flavors, creamy with pronounced oak and citrus notes. Medium finish, good balance ending with fruit and oak character. Aged well from a year ago. Good value! — 5 years ago
