1/16/2024 - Healdsburg82 Likes this wine: 93 pointsInitially on the nose this wine if full of petrol (TDN) compound. With time in the glass, the petrol aroma dissipates into beautiful ripe lemon, pineapple, and honey. On the palate, this wine is elegant, medium bodied, and displays balance. The finish is long and satisfying with acidic lift reminiscent of lime zest. |

1/11/2024 - Healdsburg82 wrote: 93 pointsAromas of pineapple and lemon custard. On the palate, citrus fruit, acidity, and lift. The finish has length with lingering acidity. 2019 was the best vintage in recent memory with higher alcohol and more depth. This is more similar to the 2020 vintage. It could benefit from another year or two in the cellar. |

2018 Mayacamas Vineyards MerlotMt. Veeder more |
8/6/2023 - Healdsburg82 Likes this wine: 94 pointsAromas of dark cherries and herbs. On the palate, medium bodied with fruit and savory notes. Acidity gives the wine lift and tannic structure in the background. Finish is medium. This needs another 5-10 years in the cellar! It was outstanding after a few hours in the decanter. |

2014 Lokoya Cabernet Sauvignon Mt. Veedermore |
7/3/2023 - Healdsburg82 wrote: 99 pointsAbsolutely beautiful with pure expression of fruit. This is not overly rich and extracted. It is about balance! On the nose, wonderful aroma of cassis and vanilla. This wine on the palate is a masterpiece with harmony of fruit, oak, tannin, and acidity. The finish is satisfying with length. It has a nice acidic backbone to last for another decade or two in bottle, however I think this is drinking perfect right now! |

2018 Monte Antico Toscana IGTSuperTuscan Blend more |
5/15/2023 - Healdsburg82 wrote: 85 pointsInitially strong aroma of sulfur. This wine needs time to breathe! With air the sulfur aroma is toned down to match stick, cherry, and oak. On the palate, acidity up front, dried cherry on the mid palate, and finishes with dusty tannins. Inexpensive super tuscan. |

4/23/2023 - Healdsburg82 wrote: 93 pointsOn the nose this wine is overwhelming vegetal. On the palate, dark silky fruit with complete integration of acid and tannin. The finish is short. Overall, the palate is beautiful, however I have mixed feelings with the overwhelming vegetal aromas. This is definitely a crowd pleaser and meant to be consumed young. |

4/21/2023 - Healdsburg82 Likes this wine: 93 pointsOn the nose there is an abundance of dried fruit and alcohol. However, the alcohol is not off putting. The palate is where the magic is.
