Very delicious with dried berry and lovely acid balance. Nice champagne and easy to enjoy. Much different than a run of the mill big name house. — 4 years ago

Newfound Semillon “Yount Mill Vineyard” 2017. Is this the first post? Can’t be. Not with the excellence coming from this new project. Glad to see Matt making the rounds, sharing some bottles. — 8 years ago

This is one of the more usual and pleasant creations I’ve had in Napa.

Dark amber in color. Dried stone fruit; apricot, nectarine & peach. Marmalade, dry pineapple, caramel & butterscotch notes, Lipton tea with sugar, burnt top of creme brûlée, very nice round acidity and a delicious polished finish.

This makes for a great dessert wine or will drink nicely on its own. Worth picking up a bottle and trying at $35. I definitely did.

The Matthiasson Sweet Vermouth is made from a very uncommon varietal in Napa, Flora. It’s a varietal created in the 1950’s from a cross between Semillon and Gewurztraminer. Surprisingly, this varietal still grows in the Yount Mill Vineyard in Oakville.

They pick the fruit late increasing the sweetness during fermentation and adding cane sugar or in wine terminology, capitalize it. 17% ABV but, you never sense it as such.

A lean blend of tropical fruit and Meyer lemon - and solid minerality (limestone?). Some debate ensued about how this compared favorably with Alsace. — 9 years ago

Always like mathiasson zins. This one is nice, if anything lighter than I expected. Almost no tannins, could have used a bit more. Excellent refined fruit and acid. — 2 years ago
