Xmas gift and a reminder that paths converge & split just as easily. Take lessons from your regrets & always push forward. And drink fucking delicious Champagne. #swc #valkyrieselections — 7 years ago

A nice marriage of traditional and modern cellar work yields a wine of unmistakable Barolo character that can actually be understood now. Tannic & years away from its prime no doubt, but not a flashy oak bomb either. One to watch! #sortingtable #swc — 7 years ago

Damn, in our portfolio yet I've been sleeping on this bottling. Terrific. #vaughnduffy #swc — 7 years ago

Backwards at first, but with air (& short ribs) this was fantastic. Made all the better by the new friends & family gathered around the table. Dinner w/ John & Lorraine. #alban #swc — 7 years ago

Dense and dried core of red fruit wrapped in a tannic & volcanic tantrum. Deceptively high acidity creeps in on the finish of what promises to be a long-lived and thought provoking wine. Held strong for several days after opening. #thesortingtable #swc — 7 years ago

Inox & blocked MLF. The crunchy green & yellow orchard fruit of humble Chablis, with a salty oyster shell finish. Come out of your scuttlehole, little crabs! #channingdaughters #licharacter #swc — 7 years ago

Wide diurnal swings under the California sun amplifies all the varietal marks of CF. This one avoids heaviness with style. From dub-mag. #arietta #swc — 7 years ago

Vibrant & fresh red fruit opens, followed by a floral & woodsy character. Sweet touch of oak rounds off the nicely acidic palate. Killer first vintage! #averæn #swc — 7 years ago

Exceptional value in Tuscan Sangiovese. Sometimes that "value" word gets played for pleasant wine that's cheap. But I'm really taken back by the dense, savory and food-ready style. Vibrant acidity and no oak sticking out. #degrazia #swc — 7 years ago

Nothing forced about this. Soulful and honest Pinot from two families of growers with 60 vintages combined experience. #broadleyvineyards #swc — 7 years ago
