 | 2005 Kosta Browne Pinot Noir Russian River Valley | 6/20/2018 | jasonh | 82 |
I thought I drank my last one of these a number of these in 2016 when it was still enjoyable although long in the tooth. Now VA dominates. Light black cherry and pomegranate on the nose. | ||||
| 2012 St. Innocent Pinot Noir Shea Vineyard | 4/2/2018 | jasonh | 94 |
I was quick to judge the 2012s and I am still glad that I was selective in my purchases, but this wine proves that well made 2012s are something special. This wine has shed the baby fat and is a wonderful combination of hedonistic fruit and the compelling nuances of Oregon pinot noir. Red berries on the front end and finishing with dark berries and earth. Tannins and acid keep this in great balance where I never got tired of it. Had over 2 nights. This wine should last a long time but I love the zone it is entering. (2256 views) | ||||
| 2008 Westrey Pinot Noir Reserve | 1/16/2018 | jasonh | |
Getting back to checking on some 08s. I had this over 2 nights and was dramatically better on the first night. It has started to transition but the fruit was still fairly fresh with medium acid and a good amount of tannin. On the second night the wine showed more aged qualities but had gone a bit out of balance. It was my only bottle so it is a non issue for me but I would say either pop and pour or give 2 or 3 more years. (1613 views) | ||||
| 2012 Scherrer Winery Zinfandel Old and Mature Vines Scherrer Vineyard Alexander Valley | 1/15/2018 | jasonh | 96 |
Wow. This wine is in the zone. Everything is complete and balanced. The aromatics are so enticing. Raspberries, cherries and a little bit of boysenberry syrup. There are also earthy and graphite elements. Medium bodied and medium acidity. Tannins hold it all together. Had over 2 nights. Not much change. Nothing tells me this wine will fade anytime soon but I would say drink now and enjoy what Zin can be. (1580 views) | ||||
 | 2007 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Starts off a little big and round. Not precise. But with just a little air the acidity starts to jump in. On the bigger side with a fuller mouth feel but absolutely wonderful. Very thankful this was not premoxed as it is an amazing wine. (1905 views) | ||||
| 2007 Veuve Fourny & Fils Champagne Premier Cru Cuvée du Clos Notre Dame | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
A terrific surprise. A wonderfully complex 2007. Chalky and stoney with lemon and peach. A nice toast element as well. (1049 views) | ||||
| 2007 Delamotte Champagne Blanc de Blancs Millésimé | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Very good. Lacking some bubbles. I enjoyed this but found it slightly simple. (2497 views) | ||||
| 2007 Vincent Dauvissat (René & Vincent) Chablis Grand Cru Les Preuses | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Fairly lean and complex. Rocks with a bit of tropical fruit. Strong acidity and tannin. Since this bottle was not in danger of PreMox it is a shame it didn't rest another 10 years. Wonderful stuff. (1741 views) | ||||
| 2007 Louis Latour Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | 96 |
Wow. What an amazing wine. The fruit is so fresh and sweet. Great balance of structure, bracing acidity and fresh white fruit. Despite the lushness, the body is still light to medium. I really like where this is right now. (1699 views) | ||||
| 1997 Grace Family Cabernet Sauvignon Etched | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
My first time tasting a Grace Family wine and it was wonderful. Next to the Montelena this wine should rounder and more lush but not flabby. A terrific wine and a treat to taste. (534 views) | ||||
| 1997 Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon The Montelena Estate | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | 94 |
At 20 years this wine is now starting to show itself. Not flashy. Just wonderfully structured with nice edges. Earth, dark fruits, pencil and tobacco. With a nice balance of citrus running throughout. (3171 views) | ||||
| 2007 Chateau Montelena Cabernet Sauvignon The Montelena Estate | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Very primary. Slightly candied and almost a bubble gum quality that was probably exacerbated by drinking next to the 1997 Estate. Wait 10 years! (3779 views) | ||||
 | 2007 Château Climens | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Dialed back and more developed than the 07 dYquem. Very intriguing and having nice sweetness with no cloying qualities. (4266 views) | ||||
| 2007 Château d'Yquem | 1/14/2018 | jasonh | |
Such a treat to taste this baby. So young but already compelling. Candies and cream. (5299 views) | ||||
| 2006 Fritz Haag Brauneberger Juffer Riesling Spätlese | 1/11/2018 | jasonh | 91 |
Nice development over the last 10 years on a great value wine. The biggest difference it showed was the evolution of the nose. Aromatics are now jumping out of the glass. Pears, candied pears, apples and flowers. The flavors are pears, apple juice, a touch of honey and finishing with some pineapple. The wine is very enjoyable. Could use more acidity but at the moment I don't mind that it shows slightly flabby. It is just so darn tasty. (1219 views) | ||||
