White Zinfandel

Unfiltered Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel 2018

Exactly what I want from Zin. Fruit with restraint and finesse. Not hot or jammy. — 7 days ago

Bollinger

Special Cuvée Brut Champagne

Well balanced, with good acidity yet retaining a softness on the palate. Flavors of brioche, baked apple, grapefruit, toasted hazelnuts, and a mineral-driven finish. Really enjoyed this, and went well with scallops with brown butter sauce. — 12 days ago

Comtes de Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs Chardonnay 2014

Medium lemon yellow . Quite closed at first , with some toasted brioche and touch of lemon peel , white flowers, stem ginger , quite rich impression . On the palate this is quite creamy and rounded , candied peel , honey , rich pastries , with quite high mineral tinged acidity . Good long , mineral tinged finish . Needs a bit more time though I don’t get the feeling this will be as profound or as long lived as the 2012. Better in 5 years and will continue to drink well a further 10. — 18 days ago

Three Valleys Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2024

This is a very tasty and easy drinking Zinfandel blend from Sonoma County.

Fruit forward with nice complexity. Elegant and entertaining.

Still young and needs a few years in the bottle to mature properly, and will continue to get better in the next 7 years.

I've had a few vintages of this wine and it is very consistent.

Wine Enthusiasts 92 points.

Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.

A blend of 67% Zinfandel, 17% Carignane, 8% Petite Sirah, 5% Alicante Bouschet and 3% Mataro.

Kim Crawford

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Light golden color. Aromas of tropical, citrus and stone fruits, fresh herbs and freshly cut grass. Flavors of grapefruit, passion fruit, green apple and melon and nectarines with a slight note of flint/crushed stones. Medium finish and vibrant acidity. Just a hint of RS. Medium-bodied and crisp. Crunchy texture. Crowd pleasing and reliable but not spectacular. Thanks for sharing, Ron B! — 7 days ago

Viña Gravonia Crianza Rioja Viura 2018

You just got to love these! Oxidative, nutty, waxy. And yet, with incredible freshness and precision.
Bruised apples, pears, a touch of citrus peal, nutty notes. So complex, so distinctive.
On the palate this is just so fresh, juicy, pure, with some fruity notes but also with this vibrant salinity. So alive!
Damn, this is so good!
