Château Cos d'Estournel

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

Why not a triple 100’scored wine when you can have lunch with your most precious loved ones in the back yard. Duck fat fried potatoes and Gruyère melted cheese on steak supported this excellent Bordeaux. Vigorous but polished tannins combined with punchy acidity carried the dark elegant fruit to a lingering finish that led you right to the next sip. — 8 months ago

The Gadabout California White Blend

One of my favorites! Really interesting blend with lots of citrus and melon up front, followed by just a little bit of funk. Slightly effervescent. Great with food. — 2 years ago

Half bottle that delivered a nice bright wine with hints of pepper, blackcurrant and a little spice. Paired well with a chorizo, ham and loaded cheese calzoni. — 5 months ago

Twinkle California Red Blend 2019

Ripe black fruit aromas, a definite texture with the medium body, tart fruit and light acidity with some soft lingering spices. Deliciously drinkable. Happy Valentine's Day 💗 — a year ago

Barbaresco Nebbiolo 1984

Happy belated birthday wine to me.

Nose is all earth and truffles and cigar tobacco; wet forest leaf and barbecue sauce. Some cheese rind and dirty sock. Definitely past it’s aromatic peak, but at 37, who isn’t?

Palate is bright though with red acids and tastes young!

Better on day two... cheese is toned down and some fruit is peeking out.

La Rioja Alta

Reserva Viña Ardanza Rioja Tempranillo Garnacha 2012

2022/8 with piperade, etc. This was a lovely traditional Rioja (my favorite kind): beautiful intense but translucent strawberry and raspberry fruit with the vanilla-cheese American oak element that is at home here as nowhere else. — 7 months ago

Lily's Pet Nat Anderson Valley Sparkling Chardonnay 2018

JKT
9.2

Such an interesting pet nat, first encounter. White fruits peaches floral notes with creamy soft fizz balanced by acidity and silky texture and a touch of sweetness carrying through to finish. 11.2 ABV and definitely quaffable! Pieces of sediment, 419 cases. — 2 years ago

Campo Viejo

Reserva Rioja Tempranillo 2013

Delicious and complex, but not overwhelming. Easy to drink. 85% tempranillo, 10% Graciano, 5% mazuela. Good with strong cheese or beef. Dry. — 2 years ago

Bread & Butter Wines

California Chardonnay

Strong diacetyl notes and rich, smooth oak flavor. Full bodied. Creamy with vanilla highlights. Goes well with a heavier cream pasta dish, soft cheese, poultry, pork, or simply on its own! — 3 years ago
