Flight 1 (2 Notes)

Flight 2 (3 Notes)

  • 2015 Eleven Eleven Chardonnay Dutton Ranch 92 Points

    USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley

    With salads and first course.

    Medium gold color. Nose of lemon zest, white flowers. Oily and textured on the palate. Baked apples, candied lemon, orange peel, butterscotch, marshmallow, floral notes. A lot going on here...classic Dutton Ranch fruit. Really delicious Chardonnay...should drink well for some time, probably improves with a couple years in the bottle. Nice surprise to the upside!

  • 2013 Eleven Eleven Cabernet Sauvignon Laki's Vineyard 93 Points

    USA, California, Napa Valley, Oak Knoll District

    With main course.

    Dense purple color. Rich nose of blackberry, graphite/pencil, oak. Palate of dark berries, cherry preserves, cassis, plums and floral notes. Full bodied, gorgeous texture and mouthfeel. Long and layered finish.

    A big wine to be sure, well made and early in its development. This will improve with a few years of bottle age. Surprisingly (to me at least..) how accessible it is now for a 2013... Great find, 11/11 is an up and coming player...good upside with this wine

  • 2014 Eleven Eleven Syrah 87 Points

    USA, California, Napa Valley, Oak Knoll District

    Last wine of the evening with dessert.

    Dark/inky purple color. Nose of dark fruits and spice. Palate of dried black fruits, chocolate, oak. Thick texture and mouthfeel. Not bad, may be a little overdone. Would give this some cellar age to see if it mellows a bit
