4th Friday of the month means Classic Wine Storage happy hour! Great wines, as always, today!

In the running for Pinot of the year. Absolutely knocked it out of the park. Everything I love about Pinot...bing cherries, cola, crisp acidity, birch wood, and an orange zest in the mid palate. I look forward to having a chance to order RM pinots for the first time in January!

Well, it only took 2 days! Remember tasting this from barrel at Tamber Bey, and this is amazing even now. Complex, dark, dense fruit forward raspberry pie and rhubarb. This wine has POWER. Will hold for a long time too. I am thoroughly impressed with this Pinot. Definitely your "cab drinker's" pinot.

Stellar aromas of red rose, spice, soil, and dark cherry. Dark red fruit and spice dominate this mid-weight wine. This will be gone quick. Glad to have more in the cellar.

Popped the cork last night and it whispered "not tonight", so saved for the Super Bowl. This is outstanding aromatically with robust dark red fruit and a strong acid backbone. None of these adjectives describe Tom Brady and the Patriots today, which also pleases me.

Light in body, cherry forward pinot juice. Nice, different, and a Tuesday.
