2022 Seghesio Family Vineyards Zinfandel Sonoma Countymore |

2020 Two Mountain Winery MerlotYakima Valley more |
3/30/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 91 pointsA satisfying crowd pleaser. Nothing short about it. A little fruity on night one, more complex on night two. Great value. |

3/26/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 90 pointsVery nice expression of the varietal. Crisp without being short. Nice citrus notes on both nose and palate. Priced right. |

2019 Seven Rings Cabernet Sauvignon Oak Knoll Districtmore |
3/26/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 88 pointsAlways dubious of under $40 Cabernet from Napa. This barely passes muster. You could find much better for this price-point from other regions. Rather dull and lacking of fruit, but not overly oaky which is to its credit. |

2020 Château Soutard-Cadet St. Émilion Grand CruRed Bordeaux Blend more |
3/22/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 93 pointsConsistently a great wine, year after year. My 4th vintage and I intend to keep buying. |

2022 Cattleya Sauvignon Blanc Alma de CattleyaSonoma County more |
3/20/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 92 pointsOne of the better Cali SB's I've had in quite a while. Beautifully floral nose and a nice creamy mid-palate, followed by just the perfect amount of acidity. I will be stocking up on this one for the Summer. |

2020 Anthill Farms Pinot Noir Sonoma Coastmore |
3/20/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 93 pointsI just love this producer. The wines lean toward the savory, forest floor style of pinot noir. Just enough fruit poking through to lend a hand. |

2014 Dunn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Howell Mountainmore |
3/17/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 94 pointsThis bottle showed much better than my first. Everything you would come to expect from a Dunn. Incredibly youthful at the 10 year mark. It did drink more like a valley floor cab than a mountain cab. Maybe a hot vintage. |

3/16/2024 - Sauvyfan wrote: 87 pointsnot a good effort here. I've purchased many vintages of this wine and have found it to be quite a value. This vintage is just hot and messy. |

2019 Penfolds Bin 389South Australia Cabernet-Shiraz Blend, Red Blend more |
3/12/2024 - Sauvyfan Does not like this wine: 81 pointsThis was closer to prune juice than wine. Big gloppy mess. Embarrassing really. |

2017 Storybook Mountain Vineyards Zinfandel Eastern ExposuresNapa Valley more |
3/11/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 94 pointsStill one of the finest examples of Napa Valley Zinfandel. This particular bottling, the Eastern Exposures, has always been one of my favorites. I find it much more feminine stylistically than their other offerings. Maybe its the morning sun. High-toned fruit, beautifully perfumed, light weight, but with plenty of length on the finish. |

2019 Ravines Wine Cellars Dry RieslingFinger Lakes more |
3/7/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 91 pointsHigh acid, highly perfumed wine. Golden in color, early petrol blows off to reveal tart green apple on the nose. A tinge of effervescence on the tongue, followed by a surprisingly well bodied wine, with a long finish of mixed citrus and honeyed cantaloupe. |

2019 Duckhorn Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
2/29/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 91 pointsBetter than expected. Balanced nose; earth and fruit. Not fruity, not oaky. Reminds me of a Justin circa 2007 (when it was good). Some green pepper on the nose. Finish is dominated by tannin. |

2/27/2024 - Sauvyfan Likes this wine: 90 pointsnice summer sipper. not too pungent on the nose. creamier texture than most NZ SB. Controlled acidity on the finish. Really good value. |
