2019 Burrowing Owl AtheneOkanagan Valley VQA Red Blend more |
5/19/2023 - peous Likes this wine: 88 pointsA balanced blend of Syrah and Cabernet Sauvignon. On the nose, it offers familiar dark fruit aromas and some earthy notes. The palate features a moderately full body with dark fruit flavors and a touch of spice. While it has a fairly balanced structure, the finish is somewhat short-lived. Overall, the 2019 Athene is a good wine for those looking to explore Burrowing Owl's offerings, but it may not leave a lasting impression on more discerning palates. |

2004 Dominio Pingus Ribera del Duero Flor de PingusTempranillo more |
9/23/2022 - peous wrote: 89 pointsThis second wine of the Danish winemaker Peter Sisseck reminds me that process and passion are as critical as terroir. His use of only 65+ years Old vines that have never tasted pesticides adds food for thought, though perhaps not something I can taste from the wine. This is a late age at 18 years old but is still delivering spice and pepper notes. Being the second wine, I wouldn’t keep it much longer. Go ahead, open that bottle and enjoy it! |

2000 Château Clerc MilonPauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more |

2007 Siro Pacenti Brunello di MontalcinoSangiovese more |
9/21/2022 - peous wrote: NR100% Sangiovese (as are all Brunello’s) from just northeast of Montalcino. Tobacco infused with smoke flavors. A solid choice for a classic Brunello. |

2005 Domaine du Pégau Châteauneuf-du-Pape Cuvée RéservéeRed Rhone Blend more |
9/21/2022 - peous Likes this wine: 92 pointsA 13 grape blend! But still 80% Grenache and 6% Syrah. This is classic CDP with spicy notes. Nose of dried fruits, and a long strong finish. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (4) |
