2014 Grans-Fassian Riesling

Mosel Saar Ruwer more

4/25/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 91 points

Rich gold colored.
Ripe nose with some petrol and botrytis.
Just off-dry sweetness, 11%
Balanced acidity, but without the bones for longer aging.
Drink up while this is still so lovely.
A great surprise and qpr

2014 Château Meyney

St. Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend more

4/24/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 90 points

Dark inky (opaque) ruby black.
Ripe dark berry fruit, still with moderate tannins, but the fruit makes this quite approachable.
Quite tasty now, probably better with time.

Molise Red Blend more

Deep opaque ruby
Dense stuff with particularly meaty rustic feel.
Pleasant and tasty enough, but I’d serve on the cooler side. Almost a prickly feel to the tongue
Mostly neutral oak
50% Montepulciano, 35% Aglianico, 15% Tintilia

2014 Pestoni Family Merlot Howell Mountain

more

4/17/2024 - cos65 wrote: 87 points

Ruby with a hint of color suggesting some age
Bright lovely cherry nose on first whiff which faded quickly.
Bright acidity and seeming a bit lean and not quite austere on first look. Not such a charming wine.
Maybe better with time in the glass

2021 Korbin Kameron Malbec

Sonoma Valley more

4/14/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 91 points

Inky black wine, one of the deepest I’ve seen, with deep purple tears.
Huge grapey blackberry aromas and flavors.
While nowhere near elegant this is a huge, delicious Cali Malbec. Some big tannins on the backend, but this really quite remarkable and tasty now. Reasonable balance for such a large wine worth a visit if you appreciate larger styled wines

2007 Martinelli Syrah Chico's Hill

Russian River Valley more

4/13/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 91 points

Deep purple black.
Quite rich and full of dark fruit, rather alcoholic with a still grippy tannic finish.
Quite nice, but may be better when this softens up a bit more

2009 Peter Michael Chardonnay La Carrière

Knights Valley more

4/11/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 94 points

Not quite brilliantly clear green gold
Huge pineapple and clove aromas and flavors, full bodied, rich, as good as cali chard gets if you appreciate the bigger style. Completely resolved and not reason to wait.

2017 Torbreck The Steading

Barossa Valley Red Rhone Blend more

4/10/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 90 points

Nearly clear, fairly deep ruby garnet, looking like a bit of age.
Mostly dark fruited, yet restrained fruit,
Full bodied and showing some alcohol
Fairly bitter tannins in the finish at first look.
Seems to need some time.
With all the structure, this seemed more Nebbiolo to me.

Light bright ruby.
Light crisp red berry flavors with a moderate bit of oak, that doesn’t detract.
A very nice dry restaurant Pinot that tastes real.

2015 Korbin Kameron Merlot

Moon Mountain District more

4/3/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: 90 points

Clear bright ruby with a moderate amount of sediment. Tart choke cherry aromas and flavors and a taut finish in the first look. Needs air.

With 2 hours of air this smooths out considerably with lovely ripe cherry flavors

2022 Meiomi Pinot Noir

California more

4/1/2024 - cos65 Does not like this wine: NR

Nearly opaque, unclear the cepage on this wine.
Very sweet, this tastes remarkably similar to the current release of Dubonnet. Chocolate, Vanilla, berry, oak. Easy going down, but rather cloying and artificial tasting

2012 Becker Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Newsom Vineyards

Texas High Plains more

3/31/2024 - cos65 Likes this wine: NR

Clear garnet
Totally tertiary with the slightest hint of prune.
Mostly iron, a touch of iodine with still some drying tannins. For those who like older wines

I’d suggest a decant and drink up.

Much better with two hour decant, this may hold up much better than the initial look suggested

Clear ruby garnet (looks older than stated age…)

Deep clearly ruby black.
A bit of VA which took a while to blow off, I’d recommend a vigorous decant.
Some nice cherry flavors, but a bit simple.

Huge big ripe and intense.

Some oak, but more than enough fruit and intensity to cover.
