2005 Valtostao Ribera del Duero Legón PremiumTempranillo more |
4/22/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 89 pointsNose of cherry, tobacco, earth, slight vanilla. Very rich mouth. Long finish with loads of sweet cherry fruit and mature oak tannins. Not my favorite style, but hits the spot and delivers well when looking for this type of wine. Exceeds my expectations and should go well with rich garlicy foods. |

2004 David Bruce Petite Sirah Shell CreekPaso Robles more |
4/19/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 90 pointsNose is dried mulberries. Very rich mouth. Ends with chocolate and good acidity. Not complex, but actually more than just drinkable and fairly refreshing from the acidity when slightly chilled. Perfect for rare grass fed burgers. |

4/16/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 89 pointsPeachy, floral nose. Rich mouth. Enough fruit on the finish to keep the high ABV in check. Texture similar to a northern rhone, but with more acidity. Simple, but nice with foods that demand a slightly richer white that is not heavily oaked. |

2015 Enderle & Moll Pinot Noir LiaisonBaden more |
4/8/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 93 pointsComplex nose of cherry, earth, chalky minerals and something pine like. Feathery light weight mouth. Elegant finish with loads of grape based tannins. Less spice than in other vintages, which helps to give this an elegance as well. Excellent! |

2012 Mas des Brousses Terrasses du LarzacRed Blend more |
3/24/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 92 pointsHas improved considerably. Nice surprisingly complex nose of herbs, earth and dried fruits. Mid weight in the mouth. Firm grape based tannins on the finish make this more rustic and for me more interesting and rewarding than the all too often riper, oak laden versions that are exported from the region. |

3/21/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 91 pointsGrassy nose with a good dose of chalk aromas and just a touch of gooseberry poking through. Medium weight. Good long acidic finish with a touch of pleasant bitterness that helps to make the finish interesting. Good QPR and exceeds my expectations. |

2007 Maroon Cabernet Sauvignon Reserve Yountvillemore |
3/16/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 90 pointsNose of cassis and slight hint of leather. Rich mouth. Lively finish. Fairly simple, but enjoyable. Still drinking well. Always impressed at how well Napa's '07 vintage has aged. |

1999 d'Arenberg Cabernet Sauvignon The Coppermine RoadMcLaren Vale more |
3/14/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 90 pointsNose of blackberry and eucalyptus. Refreshingly less than full bodied. Finish is simple, but the acids are reasonably well integrated, which I don't always find to be the case when South Australian cabs take on age. |

2001 d'Arenberg Shiraz The Dead ArmMcLaren Vale more |
3/2/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 93 pointsNose of leather and chocolate mint. Rich mouth. Finishes with cherry liquor filled chocolates, but in a good way. Not at all over the top, restrained and well balanced. Steve's favorite wine from my cellar. Rest in peace. |

2010 Cold Heaven Pinot Noir QueenscupSanta Barbara County more |
2/25/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 87 pointsNose of sweet cherry jam with baking spices and vanilla. Fairly rich and ripe mouth, but not as over the top as I was expecting based on the nose. Finishes hot, but with plenty of acidity - although the acidity seems a bit detached from the rest of the wine which has me wondering whether it may have been artificially acidulated. |

2016 Brotte Châteauneuf-du-Pape Domaine BarvilleRed Rhone Blend more |
2/18/2024 - juffer Likes this wine: 91 pointsNose of raspberry, tobacco and spice. Rich mouth, ends with impressions kirsch and plenty of fruit to balance the high ABV and enough tannic structure to give some firmness. A somewhat opulent wine, but pleasantly surprised with the balance. Paired really well with a grilled pork skirt steak. |
