2021 Tercero Malvasia BiancaSanta Barbara County more |
4/12/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsFlavorful, crisp acidity, good weight but not heavy. Kind of a citrus flavor profile - probably on the grapefruit spectrum with some bitter phenolic notes. This was very good at fridge temp but showed more at room temp (70F) and was still refreshing. My wife and I are really enjoying going through all of these interesting Tercero whites. |

2011 William Harrison Cabernet Sauvignon Rutherfordmore |
4/5/2024 - PIntag wrote: 89 pointsThis bottle showed a vestige of seepage from long ago along the sides and top of the cork (and a little along the side of the bottle, too). This bottle did seem more advanced, but not oxidized. The "Rutherford dust" seemed to be more pronounced, with less fruit. In any case, this was very enjoyable with Pizza. |

4/5/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsNot giving much at refrigerator temp. As it warmed to room temp, this showed its weight and complexity. Lots going on here, with a symphony of textures and flavors. Really enjoyed this contemplative white. Another Tercero white that deserves to be treated like a red as far as serving temperature. 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (1) |

2017 Bedrock Wine Co. Heritage Wine Dolinsek RanchRussian River Valley Red Blend more |
4/6/2024 - PIntag wrote: 92 pointsContrary to the last note, I think this is drinking pretty young (though I never tasted this in its youth), with primary, Zin-dominated fruit at the forefront. Just a joyful celebration of California field blend red wine. |

4/5/2024 - PIntag wrote: NRRipe, fleshy texture - lots of very fine particulates. In a tertiary phase, but not oxidized. VA was elevated - right at my tolerance level. If you have any of these, I wouldn't wait too much longer. |

2016 Cambria Pinot Noir Clone 4Santa Maria Valley more |
3/30/2024 - PIntag wrote: NROak-driven Pinot. Lots of oak. Not much Pinot character. Kind of what I would expect of a "corporate" winery. Previous note suggest Brett - I didn't get any, just lots of oak. Not a fan of this style at all, though I know that many folks like this style. To me, this is homogenous "commodity" Pinot Noir. If scoring, this is like 85 - 86 to my palate - a boring Pinot if there ever was one. |

3/29/2024 - PIntag wrote: NRThe wife opened another bottle. Again, nothing remarkable at refrigerator temp, but was super flavorful and interesting as it warmed to room temp. Probably a good idea to treat this as a red wine (55 degree temp to start, and then let it warm at room temp as you go through the bottle). 2 people found this helpful, do you?
