2019 Scarecrow Cabernet SauvignonRutherford more |
5/12/2022 - G_H wrote: 96 pointsA complete Scarecrow vertical: Assessing the potential development of such a young wine is hard, especially after such an intense tasting. But I'm extremely positive on the 2019 Vintage in Napa in general but on this wine in particular. This will have the weightless intensity, with an extra punch of intensity. |

2019 Screaming Eagle Sauvignon BlancOakville more |
2/28/2024 - G_H wrote: 92 pointsThree decades of Screaming Eagle: Boysenberry, passion fruit, sweet greens, mirabels, much sweeter than what I'd expect from a Sauvignon Blanc. Decent acidity, medium bodied and medium length. |

1/11/2021 - G_H wrote: 97 pointsTasted blind. Cold Popcorn, yellow plums, dried corn for popping, a mix of black and green tea-leaves and some apple notes. Incredibly dense and opulent, very long with a good acidity. |

2018 Fattoria Le Pupille (Elisabetta Geppetti) Saffredi Toscana IGTRed Bordeaux Blend more |
3/2/2023 - G_H wrote: 94 pointsShockingly approachable for such a young wine. Some cassis, blueberries and strawberries are there but they are matched with some delicious spice notes like allspice and cinnamon. This might shut down in a couple of months, but right now it’s a pleasure to drink. |

2018 Domaine Tessier Bourgogne Champ PerrierChardonnay more |
9/20/2020 - G_H wrote: 82 pointsI do like the opulent and rich chardonnay, but this just seems off, not enough acidity and overly fat. 2018 is a challenging year for riper terroirs |

2018 Scarecrow Cabernet SauvignonRutherford more |
5/12/2022 - G_H wrote: 94 pointsA complete Scarecrow vertical: Dense, opulent, toasted notes, some hazelnut. At the end of a long tasting and such a young wine, assessing the potential development is hard, but I'm quite positive that this will be a classic Scarecrow. |

5/30/2020 - G_H wrote: 91 pointsClearly too young, but with a great aging potential. A bit restrained on the nose but very powerful palate, I would give this five years in a cold cellar before re-tasting |

2017 Andremily MourvèdreSanta Barbara County more |
9/8/2021 - G_H wrote: 96 pointsOne of my favorite Andremily, this is already so approachable. Opulent with a beautifully sweet black fruit bouquet. This is so delicious and easy drinking that we had to fight for every glass of this around the table. |

2017 Friedrich Becker Weissburgunder ReservePfalz more |
9/11/2021 - G_H wrote: 91 pointsLemon juice, lemon peel, some sulfur, intense acidity, this felt more like a Riesling than a Weissburgunder. Well made, but in this stage not a lot of pleasure for me to drink |

2017 Scarecrow Cabernet SauvignonRutherford more |
5/12/2022 - G_H wrote: 91 pointsA complete Scarecrow vertical: Oysters, chalk, surprisingly this had the most sweetness from all the vintages, fairly ripe and ready to drink. This vintage kind of fell out of line with the rest of the vertical. |
