Enderle & Moll

Liaison Pinot Noir 2020

Much better than the last bottle I had. Pronounced tart cherry fruit profile, nice acid with some nice tannins. Quite good.

Laurent-Perrier

Alexandra Grande Cuvée Rosé Champagne 2004

A wonderful champagne in LH First right now. I am not always a fan rose champagnes but this one hits the mark. Lovely smooth Pinot aromas and getting into the beginning of the 2nd maturation phase. Really great. — a year ago

Napa Valley Red Blend 2010

9.3

Bought at the winery, cracked open for anniversary dinner. A rich wine, have decanted it for 7 hours and it’s still somewhat shy. Plenty of life left here, primary fruit and secondaries poking through the veil. Black fruit, cassis, olive perfume, sweet and woodsy nose. Texturally weighty, w/decent acid (14.8%abv), and muy picante on the finish. Spicy. — a year ago

Clark & Telephone Vineyard Pinot Noir 2021

Delicious smooth bottle of wine, especially after it opens up a bit. Happy Father’s Day! — a year ago

Vietti

Perbacco Langhe Nebbiolo 2020

Day 1 this was just a fruit bomb with strawberries and cherries and not much else. Closed it up and day 2 you can tell it is a Vietti. Woody tar and roses. So drinkable and fun. Went really well with wagyu tagliata — a year ago
