April 3, 2023 - Quirky but very enjoyable Grenache.
Mid weight texture, complex fruit and just a hint of acidity.
Significantly more enjoyable than 7 yes ago. -

October 2, 2021 - Robert's Get-Together at Margaux's Table: PnP - Not sure why others in the group are down on this wine....I found it exactly like I thought it would be, i.e., big fruit, creamy mouthfeel and some secondary flavors. I liked this wine....while not Astralis, it is still pretty darn good (at least for me!) I did not notice or get the heat some others complained about, which is surprising because I am usually pretty sensitive to it! It could be that I was eating a crayfish stuffed filet when I was drinking this, but I thoroughly enjoyed it! 92 without reservation or hesitation!

October 2, 2021 - Mixed Wines at Margaux's Table (Margaux's Table, White Bear Lake, MN): Oof, that's a buggah. Wow, this is high octane, alcoholic (14.55% on the label - so with the extra decimal it "must" be accurate or at least they want us to think so), with lots of glycerin, black raspberry syrup, oak, and a full bodied plus frame. Yikes, keep the matches away.
