| 2009 David Arthur Cabernet Franc (USA, California, Napa Valley) | 12/23/2022 | beezer6 | 92 |
Great showing. Popped and poured. Purple color, rich viscosity. Plums, menthol, light Asian spice, touch of funk. Palate is well integrated with more purple fruit, earth and pine needles. Drink now or hold another 5 years. (204 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2013 White Rock Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon (USA, California, Napa Valley) | 9/14/2022 | beezer6 | 89 |

| 2013 Big Table Farm Pinot Noir Wirtz Vineyard (USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley) | 7/18/2022 | beezer6 | 93 |

| 2007 Quilceda Creek Cabernet Sauvignon (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley) | 6/11/2022 | beezer6 | 92 |

| 2002 R. López de Heredia Rioja Reserva Viña Tondonia (Spain, La Rioja, La Rioja Alta, Rioja) | 2/13/2022 | beezer6 | 92 |
Super sour cherry, rustic leather, earth and a little eucalyptus flowers. Palate shows nice acidity and more reductive red fruit. Very nice but I'd drink soon. (2481 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2007 Carlisle Syrah Papa's Block (USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley) | 2/7/2022 | beezer6 | 93 |
Wow. Really nice showing and I'm surprised the drinking window here on CT ends at 2016 because this is still going strong. Really great freshness and acidity and at 15% abv on the label this was not at all cloying, heavy or hot. Dark stewed purple fruit, smoked meat, some purple flowers. Great showing.

| 2010 K Vintners Syrah The Hidden Northridge Vineyard (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Wahluke Slope) | 11/16/2021 | beezer6 | 90 |
Thinner. Felt tired. Faded fruit. Nicer nose than the palate. (1311 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2004 Shafer Cabernet Sauvignon Hillside Select (USA, California, Napa Valley, Stags Leap District) | 10/16/2021 | beezer6 | 94 |
Plush, ripe, floral, elegant and still incredibly young. Barely saw any signs of age. Similar to last notes. Maybe a bit more open though. Classic HSS elements - plums, cassis, violets, tons of mocha. Long long finish. Absolutely mouth coating. Still got some of that heat I noticed last time around but not nearly as intrusive. Overall very nice. (2035 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 1990 Beaulieu Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Georges de Latour Private Reserve (USA, California, Napa Valley) | 10/16/2021 | beezer6 | FLAW |
Musty aroma. Never blew off completely. (2013 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2011 Cayuse Flying Pig (USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Walla Walla Valley) | 10/16/2021 | beezer6 | 93 |
Showed well. More fruit than many Cayuse. Still had the sense of some Syrah with meaty undertones. Nice. Quite the contrast from the '04 Shafer HSS. (2813 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
| 2014 Aubert Chardonnay Sugar Shack (USA, California, Napa Valley, Rutherford) | 10/16/2021 | beezer6 | 92 |
Little muted at first on the nose. Not as rich and oak driven as many Aubert. More mineral focus. Really nice but a little short on the finish and lacking some of the typical Aubert depth and nuance in the nose. (1449 views) $ FIND THIS WINE on WINE-SEARCHER.COM $ |
