2009 Sine Qua Non On The LamSanta Barbara County White Blend more |
4/28/2018 - Whodeyinsea Likes this wine: 93 pointsMy first SQN. Golden in the glass. Nose makes you think this is going to be a red wine. Initally more heat than I care for. Palate is oily with peach pineapple and a saline finish. |

4/7/2018 - Whodeyinsea wrote: 93 pointsSimilar notes to MXPBUY, with the exception that mine was a pn'p from a 750. Same violet and cedar on the nose with red fruit and green / herb on the palate. I see no reason to wait. This beauty is resting on her plateau now. |

2015 Aubert Chardonnay Larry Hyde & SonsCarneros more |
1/13/2018 - Whodeyinsea wrote: 94 pointsFirst Aubert and it did not disappoint. Opened for about 30 minutes. Huge mouth feel, good pop of acidity to compliment the creaminess (lemon custard). Clean finish of white peach. |

2003 Château Grand-Puy-LacostePauillac Red Bordeaux Blend more |
10/8/2017 - Whodeyinsea Likes this wine: 91 pointsIt's all pretty much been said. Cassis & ripe berry turning to cedar with the second night tasting better than the first. I see no reason to wait. |

2004 Robert Foley ClaretNapa Valley Red Bordeaux Blend more |
8/5/2017 - Whodeyinsea wrote: 94 pointsThe mixed reviews got to me and I had to try it for myself. This is great stuff. Still has the fruit that I want in a high quality Howell Mountain Cab blend. Loses a couple points for a slightly harsh finish (though I appear to be alone in this experience / opinion). |

2007 Nickel & Nickel Cabernet Sauvignon Martin Stelling Vineyard Oakvillemore |
7/1/2017 - Whodeyinsea wrote: 93 pointsHigh quality Napa Cab here. Oak and raspberry. Tannins tell you that this still has plenty of life left. |

2014 Viña Cobos Malbec FelinoLujan de Cuyo more |
5/28/2017 - Whodeyinsea Likes this wine: 89 pointsSuper easy drinking. All fruit. Delicious, strawberry jam. None of the funky / gamieness that can come with some Malbecs. |

2010 Dowsett Family DevotionWalla Walla Valley Red Blend more |
2/25/2017 - Whodeyinsea Likes this wine: 90 pointsCherry and even a little candied orange (early on). Acid on the back end. Drinking beautifully now. PnP with confidence, but still held together over nights 2 & 3. |

2013 Buccella Cabernet SauvignonNapa Valley more |
2/18/2017 - Whodeyinsea Likes this wine: 93 pointsDecant 6-hours: Cherries and red fruit. Still showing heat (alcohol) that needs to blow off (this was a common theme through all 3 nights). |

2002 Merus Cabernet SauvignonNapa Valley more |

2014 Myriad Cellars Cabernet Sauvignon Napa Valleymore |
12/17/2016 - Whodeyinsea wrote: NRVery puzzled by previous reviews stating that this is ready right now. This wine either needs tons of air or should sit for a bit. Huge tannins on the pop n' pour suggest that there are good things ahead, just not right now. Red fruit started coming through after 3-4 hours of being open. |
