2021 Grgich Hills Chardonnay Miljenko's SelectionCarneros more |
5/1/2024 - nicholasagonzales wrote: 90 pointsVery young. Does not yet have the beautiful yellow hue. A little acidic. Almost takes a bit like a Sauvignon Blanc. |

2020 Inglenook RubiconRutherford Red Bordeaux Blend more |
5/1/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 91 pointsI knew it was young, but still tightly wound. Needs at least five more years in the bottle. A little acidic, but will round out with time. |

5/1/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 95 pointsFantastic wine. Smooth beyond belief. Notes of espresso and tobacco. Perfect with steak, but could be had on its one. |

2016 Newton Chardonnay UnfilteredNapa Valley more |
4/26/2024 - nicholasagonzales wrote: 85 pointsMaybe it was the bottle, but it was kind of flat. There seemed to be no complexity at all. It still had the beautiful yellow hue color and the smells were of pear and lemons. The taste was just off. Did bot enjoy nearly as much as the bottle we had a few months ago. |

2018 Horsepower Vineyards Syrah The Tribe VineyardWalla Walla Valley more |
4/13/2024 - nicholasagonzales wrote: 80 pointsI’m having trouble getting past the funk. After a few hours the funk was less pronounced. I’m just not particularly a fan of it. The wine didn’t do anything special for me. Maybe more time in the bottle, but perhaps my palate and this wine do not align. |

2020 Quilceda Creek Cabernet SauvignonColumbia Valley more |
4/13/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 96 pointsIt is full bodied without being overpowering. Full bodied wine, but does not necessary crave food and is okay by itself. Paired with a heavy dessert and it worked wonderfully. |

2020 Quixote Petite Sirah Helmet of MambrinoStags Leap District more |
4/13/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 96 pointsThe first thing you notice is the deep dark purple color of this wine. It is beautiful in color. The nose has dark fruits and perhaps some cocoa. Could enjoy this wine by itself or it pairs extremely well with food. Not overpowering from a taste perspective. Extremely good! |

2020 Beaux Frères Chardonnay Rogue Vines Beaux Frères VineyardWillamette Valley more |
4/13/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 98 pointsBeautiful Chardonnay and example of a cold climate Chardonnay. Extremely food friendly. It has a wondeful golden hue and has nice floral notes. Wow! |

2015 Cakebread Cellars Pinot Noir Annahala RanchAnderson Valley more |
4/12/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 92 pointsBig bold red fruits. Smells and taste bright red raspberries and strawberries. As the wine opens, the fruit is less pronounced. Still drinking well and has a few more years left in the bottle. |

2019 Ken Wright Pinot Noir Freedom Hill VineyardWillamette Valley more |
4/12/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 90 pointsNeeds some time to open up. Popped and poured and was biting on the taste. Over two hours it opened up quite nicely. It has blackberry and a spice note (maybe all spice). |

3/9/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 90 pointsMore full bodied than I remembered. It was great with a barbocoa burrito. The tannis are medium aas is the finish. |

2010 Stag's Leap Wine Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon ArtemisNapa Valley more |
2/10/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 92 pointsCould definitely tell the bottle was getting older, but there are still a few years left. The wine craves a fatty meat and we had it with some Waygu. Dark fruit notes on the nose. A well balanced wine. |

2021 Aubert Chardonnay Powder House VineyardSonoma Coast more |
2/10/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 97 pointsWow!! Incredibly silky in your mouth. Full bodied. Smells of lemon on the nose. A pleasure to drink. Decanted and enjoyed over 3ish hours. An absolute treat. |

2/9/2024 - nicholasagonzales wrote: 87 pointsI was really looking forward to this wine and the salmon that was prepared. Unfortunately, I found the acidity to almost be overpowering. It really needed to be paired with a heavy cream sauce. Wish I had another bottle to try a better pairing. |

2016 Newton Chardonnay UnfilteredNapa Valley more |
2/9/2024 - nicholasagonzales Likes this wine: 92 pointsBottle should keep for a few more years. It is incredibly round and full-bodied. A crisp wine with slight citrus fruit smells. |
