Feb 9th, 2023Five single-vineyard CA Pinots vs 5 Burgs: Gevrey-Chambertin, Vosne-Romanee + three 1er Crus Beaunes. All 2005s. Rob Jensen, owner, and Sue Ryan, lead wine educator at Testarossa joined our group for the tasting. This was our top rated wine although more middle of the pack for me.

Feb 28th, 2021Another blockbuster. In the glass the rim variation suggested 3-5 years, so this is holding up like a champ. Mushroom creeping in on the fresh tart cherry notes.
