Introduction
This is an annual fundraiser that supports the U of M Children's Hospital. The food was outstanding and the charity of course but the wines were not very good. Would rather pay more than $175 next year to sample more than a bunch of American (Mainly California Wines). Will reach out to help with this of course.

2023 Fantesca Chardonnay Russian River Valley 90 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley
Wow this is $90. Way overpriced. Light wood influence from the neutral oak with lemon, white flowers and mild spice. Not really feeling the Burg style but they are trying. Good wine overall if at $40.

2021 Fantesca Pinot Noir King Richard's Reserve 84 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley
They said this is Cab Lovers Pinot. Well that makes no sense. Too heavy and sweet. Big fruits, color is too dark and floral notes. Not quite like Belle Glos but more that style. Hard to believe this is $140.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2019 Fantesca All Great Things 92 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
Of the 3 wines Fantesca poured by far the best. Again all of their wines are overpriced and mainly for the high maintenance crowd that pretend they know wine. Dark fruits, wood, vanilla, spice, earth and floral notes. Big but balanced overall.

2023 The Calling Chardonnay Dutton Ranch 88 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Russian River Valley

2022 The Calling Cabernet Sauvignon 68 Points
USA, California, Central Coast, Paso Robles
So trying this compared to the Sonoma is like night and day. This is awful. Sweet and ripe. Paso Wines are just not for me. Blackberries, ripe cherries, slight chemical taste and spices. Not balanced and hardly drinkable.

2021 The Calling Cabernet Sauvignon 87 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Alexander Valley
Drinkable and good overall value. Dust, cherry, wood, minerals, earth and floral notes. Medium finish. Way better than the Paso.

2023 Cline Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Rock Carved 80 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Alexander Valley
Wineries like this are hard to believe they are still in business. So boring with ripe fruits, spices and floral notes.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2023 Cline Cellars Zinfandel Eight Spur Dry Creek Valley 84 Points
USA, California, Sonoma County, Dry Creek Valley
The best of the clines. Love Ben's normal note in 2025 and then AI note in 202t6. Dark currants, spices, floral and earth. A touch of pepper on the finish. Ok but nothing I would buy.

2024 Pazo Cilleiro Albariño Rías Baixas Villa Dauga 91 Points

2017 DeLille Cellars Chaleur Estate 91 Points
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Red Mountain
Day 1: Glasvin Kane. Bottle in 2024 good this one really boring and little left. Dried flowers, muted fruit and earth. Just a boring bottle of wine and not recommended. 81 points
Day 2: Well how a day makes a big difference. Very Bordeaux like on day 2 with dried flowers, cigar, spices, wood, minerals, sour cherry and blue currants. Huge transformation and as I always say never give up on a wine. Not a rockstar but very good overall. 90 points
Day 3: Day 3 does it again. This wine improved so much over 3 days. Menthol, cigar, wood, cherry, blueberries, spices, earth and cigar notes. Medium plus finish. A good but not a great wine. 91 points
Recommendation: Big improvement over 3 days.

2023 Caymus Cabernet Sauvignon California 60 Points
USA, California
Glasvin Universal. Well to say this is not good would be an understatement. Not sure why anyone drinks these. Sweet fruits, chemical taste, artificial sweeteners and oak chips. Had to go to a slider to get rid of the taste. Love these bigger events as they always allow for wines for my top 20 worst of the year.
Post a Comment / 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2016 Blackbird Vineyards Paramour 94 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
Glasvin Universal. By far the top wine at Wine Fest Charity Event. Really drinking well with floral, funk, spices, minerals, cherry and a touch of pepper. Medium plus finish and need to get some.
Post a Comment / 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2022 Argyle Vintage Brut 88 Points
USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley
This is for sure not at the level of the Roederer Anderson Valley Sparkling but good overall. Dough, sour apple, spices lemon and dust. Good acidity overall.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2024 St. Innocent Pinot Noir Villages Cuvée 90 Points
USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley
Well fine overall and as Brian Glas said 90 points. Well not quite Ben's AI note and for sure not 94 this is easy drinking with cherry, strawberries, minerals, dust and floral notes. Medium finish. Drink now to 2028.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2023 Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon 59 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
Glasvin Universal. Well there goes the Tracker Average. This garbage is in the same category as Caymus. Sweet, lacks acidity, riper fruit and not much more. Some chemical taste in there. Quilt, Caymus, Bella Glos and Prisoner are all made in the same style. A top 20 worst wine of the year candidate.
Post a Comment / 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2024 Belle Glos Pinot Noir Clark & Telephone Vineyard 60 Points
USA, California, Central Coast, Santa Maria Valley
Glasvin Universal. Well the Tracker average is about to go down. I like trying these at big event so I don't waste money buying them. Well this is terrible. Muted fruit, some spice, water, floral and sugar cubes. The whole drink what you like crowd can still believe that but this is not Pinot Noir. Sorry it is terrible.

NV Warre Porto Otima 10 Year Old Tawny 89 Points

Solid again with Carmel, soy, spices, blackberries and maple syrup. A little of this now and again is fun but could not drink a full glass that is for sure.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2025 Dog Point Vineyard Sauvignon Blanc 89 Points
New Zealand, South Island, Marlborough
Grass, floral, citrus, spice and lemon. Medium finish and refreshing. Nice acidity. One of the better vintages of Dog Point as for a while they were slipping in quality. Hard to believe that some critic on the pro scene gave this 94. Not that good.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2023 Ponzi Vineyards Pinot Noir Laurelwood District 92 Points
USA, Oregon, Willamette Valley, Laurelwood District
One of the better Pinots from Oregon for under $45. Not sure if the other user had a typo on the 82 but this is a solid 92. Strawberries, floral, earth, underbrush, violets and minerals. Very nice concentration and medium plus finish. Easy drinking Pinot.

2022 Frog's Leap Cabernet Sauvignon Estate Grown Rutherford 92 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley, Rutherford
Classic Old School Napa. Not the over the top and high alcohol crap that sells for $200 plus. Leather, wood, cherry, plum, spices, dust and earth. Medium plus finish. Always a solid producer.
Post a Comment / 3 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2023 Northstar Merlot Polaris 87 Points
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Horse Heaven Hills
This winery used to be much better and now just mass producing drinkable wines. Cherry, oak, vanilla, chocolate and spices. A bit hot for me.

2024 Bonny Doon Vineyard Picpoul 85 Points
USA, California, Central Coast
Chill agree with you. Bonny Doon used to be solid 90 plus pointers but not anymore. Lemon, spices, white flowers and a touch of honey. Very generic tasting white overall that you would find on a grocery store shelf.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2024 Bonny Doon Vineyard Le Cigare Blanc 80 Points
USA, California
The 60 pointer is harsh. This is better than wines like Belle Glos, Prisoner and Caymus which are in the 60s. While not a wine I would enjoy it is drinkable with spices, lemon, floral and orange peel. Short finish.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2023 Bonny Doon Vineyard Le Cigare Volant 86 Points
USA, California, Central Coast
Again Bonny Doon used to be good overall but now just looking to fill space on the grocery store shelves. A party style wine with red currants, light pepper and floral notes. Nothing complex here but nothing offensive either.

2022 Rombauer Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 90 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley

2023 Rombauer Vineyards Chardonnay 89 Points
USA, California, Napa / Sonoma, Carneros

2023 Rombauer Vineyards Pinot Noir 89 Points

2022 Rombauer Vineyards Sauvignon Blanc 82 Points
USA, California, North Coast
Many California Sauvignon Blancs fail and this is another one I would pasts on. Very light and almost like drinking water. Lemon, flowers and lime. Not much going on here.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2022 Rombauer Vineyards Zinfandel California 88 Points
USA, California
Not bad if not a little jammy. Blackberries, floral, spices and earth. Medium finish. Well made overall.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
NV Bonanza Chardonnay Lot 1 63 Points
USA, California
Should be more like Bozzo the clown Chardonnay. This stuff is terrible. Sweet and chemical taste. Oak chips thrown in the mix as well. NO!
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2024 Bonanza Cabernet Sauvignon The Vinekeeper Napa Valley 75 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
If you had a blind tasting of these, 1858 Cab, Caymus Napa, etc. not many would be able to tell the difference. Garbage wine with sweet fruits, spice and a chemical tasting finish. Man call me a snob but I am not drinking this junk. Smell, swish and spit and then get some meat to get rid of the taste.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2020 K Vintners Syrah Powerline Vineyard 62 Points
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley, Walla Walla Valley
Well probably the only one at WineFest that can detect smoke taint. Well trying to dump this on all the drunk people that attended. Ash finish. Lacks fruit, pepper and some spice. Just can't believe people give this a good score. Proud to be the top caller out of 2020 smoke taint. Just google it.
Post a Comment / 2 people found this helpful, do you? Yes - No
2021 Charles Smith Cabernet Sauvignon Real Wine 85 Points
USA, Washington
Not bad and for sure better than the 2020 smoked tainted Powerline Syrah. Cherry, spices, floral and minerals. Simple but tasty.

2023 Michael-David Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon Freakshow 63 Points

2022 Cliff Lede Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valley 88 Points
USA, California, Napa Valley
