Beautiful Joly wine. Definitely in a perfect drinking window. Decanted for 1 hour before pouring any. Evolved throughout evening. Deep golden peach color. Finish was crisp and enjoyable. The somm at the restaurant called it a "unicorn" when she saw the bottle. Lol. A special wine.

2010 Lullaby Viognier

Walla Walla Valley more

Not your typical viognier, but who wants typical. The acidity in this wine helps make it amazing. Paired beautiful with burrata and clams in a saki, lime broth. I loved this viognier!

Excellent Cabernet Franc. Very delicate. Aspects that remind me of Loire. In good drinking window but will continue to age for a few more years.

Amazingly this wine held up. On the downward slope, but there was still fruit present. It was a outstanding example of age ability of WA fruit. If I see more bottles of this wine at auction, I will buy.

Light body with a tasty hoppy finish. Very nice IPA. First beer to be bottled by this micro brewery that to date has only sold beer by the glass and growler in its tap room. We love you Standard Brewing!

1999 DeLille Cellars Chaleur Estate

Red Mountain Red Bordeaux Blend more

11/16/2013 - meld Likes this wine: 91 points

Good wine with strong cabernet character eventually coming out. Still had some fruit showing after being decanted for a couple hours. Also opened 1992, 1994, 2003, & 2004 the same night. This was the sleeper, not very implressive at first but rose to be one of the night's favorites. After the 1992, it was the next to be finished off.

Not sure if this one was an abnormality or if just past. Still great wine. Also opened 1992, 1999, 2003, & 2004 the same night. This was probably the least exciting of the group. Little nose left, fruit almost completely gone.

Amazing that this wine has held up so well. Very earthy with tobacco undertones. Still had some fruit showing. Also opened 1994, 1999, 2003, & 2004 the same night. The 1992 was the immediate frontrunner, dying off after a couple hours of being decanted.
