1983 Byrd Cabernet Sauvignon, Catoctin, Maryland. #mdwine Such a find and thank you Tony Quinn for bringing to dinner. Not often I try a wine from a winery that no longer exists. A nose of bright tomato and herbs--almost basil like. Fruit notes of dried cherry and cranberry. Lots of bottle age notes of leather, forest floor and soy sauce. Very soft and silky finish. The wine held very well. Alas the winery is long gone. What a treat! #wine #sommelier #cabernet — 10 years ago

2006 Black Ankle Crumbling Rock Red Blend, Frederick County, Maryland. @blackanklevines Cab Franc, Cab Sauv, Merlot, Petit Verdot. Seductive with violet notes. Black cherry, plum and forest floor intertwined with cedar, baking spice, mocha dust. Soft and silky. Truly amazing. #wine #sommelier #mdwine — 10 years ago
Old Westminster #Albariño, Carroll County, #Maryland #MDwine. A great example of why Albariño should be planted in more vineyards in the mid-Atlantic. Aromas of white flowers and orange peel plus lemon meringue, apricot and mango. Round and creamy texture with a lingering finish. Six months on the lees contributes to the creamy palate. Good show from a new winery. #wine #sommelier — 10 years ago
