Pale gold color. Light nose of oak and mesquite coals. A bit of citrus and whipped cream on the palate and while it is definitely oak-driven, I don't think it gets anywhere near Rombauer territory. Bats for average, not power ;) My regular go-to at the local watering hole because I can't stand the reds. 4+10+15+7= 86

This one is hitting just right currently. Beautiful Grenache fruit leads the pack. Far too easy to drink. Lots of delicious herbal notes along for the ride. Would buy again.

A brilliant wine - aromas, flavors, balanced structure. Young but opens up quickly in the glass. Has the tannins/acidity to evolve with age but is good to go now.

2018 Big Basin Vineyards Syrah Coastview Vineyard - Terraces

Monterey County more

I think this is not ready yet. Blind might have mistaken it for Rhone. Expected New World fruit was either not present or overwhelmed by the whole cluster tannins. Dense, potentially complex wine, but the tannins were rough and green tasting. I was wondering if they'll ever integrate, but must admit the last glass was the best.

2023 Extradimensional Wine Co. Yeah! Full King Crab III Brosseau Vineyard Monterey County

Chardonnay Blend, Chardonnay more

5/12/2024 - ohne_musik wrote: 92 points

decanted 3 hours and then back in bottle for dinner 2 hours later. Tight as a drum at first, as expected. Aromas start to waft from the decanter, blossoming into lemon, wax, and crushed herbs. Palate shows medium acid, more of the lemon/wax notes, with a lustrous texture that is soft, mysterious, a touch of raspy tannin. Not a fruit forward wine, and while there is joy in this bottle, it’s more of a contemplative joy than an exuberant joy. Lovely.

Very strong taste of blackberry with sour notes. Almost a port flavor. Not my jam but if that sounds good to you it's a delightful bottle.

2018 Hahn Chardonnay Monterey County

more

5/8/2024 - Papies wrote: 89 points

By the glass at the BA Lounge, LHR. Freshly opened.
Lightly if any oak here and quite a pure and firm expression and definitely out of the norm but also maintains a structure and core unlike some others that in order to stay light feel a bit fruit juicy. 89

2018 Slow Press Wines Chardonnay

Monterey County more

5/8/2024 - eprutter wrote: 72 points

Medium yellow, drank right out of the fridge so was still opening up on the nose, with grassy notes along with pear and apple. Tasted of acid, a bit pungent. Fruit notes included sour apple and apricot. A respectable length with a warm finish. Not really jiving with the flavors of this wine. To be fair, I am definitely drinking this late and outside of its window.

The single most saline infused wine I have ever tasted. It’s bone dry lemon zest & Muscadet margarita - with extra salt. Wow. Where’s the oysters?

1983 San Saba Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Monterey County

5/7/2024 - Gregmonroe wrote: NR

So I bought a cellar; 11/12/2022-12/31/2030: Second and last bottle of this. This bottle is so much different than the first. Cork was 2/3 soaked, but came out in one piece with a Durand. In the glass, there is some bricking, but generally a deep red with good clarity. The nose has a hint of green pepper or vegetable, but it doesn’t blow me over like the other bottle did. Big acid on the palate, which makes the old fruit profile taste brighter. No tannins, but cranberry, red fruit, a bit of leather. It is falling off quickly, but quite the surprise after the bottle last year. Looks like I have the very last one on all of CellarTracker…

2021 Parsonage Estate Wild Card

Monterey County Red Blend more

4/14/2024 - Central Coast Sharon wrote: NR

Garnet in color. At this point in the tasting, we thought this new release was excellent, perhaps rivaling the 2020 vintage which I had declared the ""best ever"" Wild Card. Robust red and black fruits dance on the palate. Upon a revisit, this wine is still young and has great potential. This is not “ estate.”

Almost purple in the glass. A nice, black and blue fruit palate with a tannic finish. I think this will settle down into a very yummy wine.
