Had the 2018 vintage, which is young but outstanding. Can’t wait to try it in another year or two. It’s a little sweeter than the Susanna, but amazingly mellow. This wine only gets produced about once every 2-3 years. — 6 years ago

Paolo Bea

Riserva Pipparello Montefalco Rosso Sangiovese Blend 2011

Paolo Bea dinner at Semo. All wines were prepared by opening and slow-ox, prior to service. Abbreviated notes due to the setting. The 2011 pours a deep, hazy garnet with wild notes of Chinato, bruised fruit and leather. Profoundly sensual and also a smash with the quail. Drink now through 2031-ish. Bottle No. 1818/7320 — 5 months ago

Erath

Southern Oregon Quail Run Pinot Blanc 2012

We bought this 2012 in the tasting room in Willamette Valley on our honeymoon in August 2013. Glad we waited a few years on this one! Very bright honey suckle and maybe papaya (tasting notes) on the nose. Vanilla and buttery oak on the tongue, but nicely balanced by lemony acidity. Great wine! — 6 years ago
