So...I am officially out of daily drinkers and this one came into play. This falls within our category between think twice π€ & don't touch π
πΌ. @Larissa Mitchell gave me the go ahead b/c she didn't care for the timeshare like presentation (& pressure) we got to purchase at the end of the tour. Quintessa makes a fine wine - no salesmanship needed.
My Sunday night challenge to you @David A Lentine @Martin G Rivard @TheSkip @Mike Rowe @Daryl Calhoun @Roy Goble @Carl Fischer @Jim Trobaugh @Mike Smith @Ron R @Charles Hetzel @David Goldfinger @David Trumper @Bill Bender @Paul T @Eric LaMasters @Eric Shanks @"Odedi" is to recommend Napa reds (Cabs, Merlot, CuvΓ©e) from $30-60 so I can refill this week. Feel free to comment/tag me in a past wine for reference. #napavalleyforever #mitchellwinestorage
Lastly, Chicago Cubs let's get some runs!! Opening a good bottle of wine for luck!! #iaintafraidofnogoat
TN - The nose is strong with cassis and Rutherford dust. Makes me feel like I am laying on the side of the Silverado Trail. Decanted 1.5 hours and it needed it. Very silky on the tongue and dark ruby color. β 8 years ago
Started decanting this morning as encouragement to start the π¦ day prep work. Absolutely outstanding! Each hour getting better and better. TN: powerful oak full of blackberry fruits - one of my favorite wineries and honestly this didn't need a decant but enjoying the journey. #chriscarpenterisgod @cardinalewinery #thanksgivingwine β 8 years ago

A staple at #mitchellwinestorage for all holidays. Enjoying with round 2 pies and a warm fire. π₯π₯ Huge crowd pleaser. Tons of honey but the grapefruit citrus comes through. β 8 years ago

20 years in and this wine displays few signs of gray hairs. On the nose, notes of butterscotch and light oak.
The palette is dense and well balanced, with hints of lemons, quince and caramel. Close your eyes and you could be in burgundy.
Make it a wonderful 2017, peeps! πΎπ β 8 years ago
