3/4/2024 - BRR Likes this wine: NRI don't quite remember what I paid for this, but I don't think it was much (as a redacted wine from Full Pull), but this is killer. Big fruit and very clearly Boushey Vineyard...darn, only bought two...wish it would've been more. |

2/15/2024 - jpcart Likes this wine: 92 pointsBlind I think I would have figured out it is a zin, but it is definitely a toned down style that I'm guessing was picked earlier or from a cooler site. Popped and poured and the nose was there immediately, with lighter red fruits and some spice. On the palette is where it becomes clear that it is a zin, but with less body and density than I'm used to (I don't intend that as a criticism). This is very easy drinking but if you slow down to pay attention, there is a lot of complexity. First try of this producer and happy I have several more.

1/9/2024 - ChrisinCowiche wrote: 91 pointsPoured through vinturi than drank with chicken parm while CFP championship occurred. Bottle lasted past halftime, and opened up beautifully. Dark fruit, silky smooth middle palate, and very long finish. This has shed some weight, baby fat since my last bottle and is in a really good spot. I would be interested to see slow ox vs. vinturi and I may try that next time if I remember soon enough. Great berserker day purchase a few years ago and ready for that event again in a couple of weeks. Huskies lost, but the bottle is a winner.

1/7/2024 - Neecies Likes this wine: NRBest vintage of Orr CB I've had. Rich golden pear and quince fruit, nutty with a little lanolin, and no RS like some past vintages I've tasted. Medium-plus body, elegant finish. Perfect choice from the list of a local wine bar to welcome some friends back to Washington.

12/22/2023 - ChrisinCowiche wrote: 92 pointsNose of dark cherry cassis, a hint of vanilla and leather. Palate is warm and inviting, finely grained tannins, good structure, rounded edges suggests Merlot influence maybe? Finish is long and luscious. This wine will improve but drinking well now with an hour or two slow ox. May not have the acidity needed for extra long aging, but will last 10 years easily. Thanks to Marjie K for suggesting I buy this on wineberserkers.

2019 Xavier Vignon GigondasRed Rhone Blend more |
11/17/2023 - La Cave d'Argent Likes this wine: 91 pointsComprised of 95% Grenache and 5% Mourvèdre, this deep ruby Southern Rhone has lots to offer. Loaded with dark bramble fruits, pepper-laced black cherries, bittersweet chocolate, Provençal herbs and loamy earth, it is medium-bodied, fresh, minimally oaked red with soft tannins and seamless alcohol (despite being listed as 15%). Dense in the middle and lengthy on the back end, this is a modern version of the appellation that should show well throughout the remainder of this decade. Sampled over three hours from a bottle that had been decanted through a Vinturi aerator, this showed best after the first two hours in carafe. Drink now-2030.

12/5/2023 - TallMikeWine Likes this wine: 93 pointsDecanted, then let fly! Lovely currant, and all the red fruits, maybe a hint of blue. Then came the baking spices, and at some point some really interesting root beer notes. The tannins are still pretty chewy! I'm just checking in with this. It's so hard to wait! But wait I will. 2 more years? Can I do it?

12/3/2023 - ChrisinCowiche wrote: 85 pointsNose is pickled meat, feet, tapenade, sweet oak. Palate is briny, meaty, feety, cranberry. Medium acid and shortish finish. After an hour picks up some weight, but not much structure or depth.

12/2/2023 - ChrisinCowiche wrote: 94 pointsPop and pour followed over 9+ hours. Go Huskies! Bright purple color with magenta edge, nose is New French Oak, med-high toast, New American Oak, sweet vanilla, dark cocoa. Palate is chocolate enrobed bing cherry, chukar cherry, core acid is steady and strong, medium weight but gains weight over evening, chewy, dusted cocoa mouthwatering tannins, demands lipids. Long finish. Still a baby, with lots of oak influence, particularly the American oak dominating at present, but not off putting and will be exciting to see this wine develop. Upside potential. Current rating 93-95, so split difference, but I could see this going higher. Very high yum factor.

10/29/2023 - fingers Likes this wine: 92 pointsNotes after a few hours open but it showed well from the pop. Dark, inky ruby color with very slow, clear legs and no sediment. Profound nose of concentrated cherry, brambles, hot tar, and licorice. Palate is medium body with good acidic grip and friendly tannins. Love the balance and observance of some restraint in terms of sweetness compared to so many New World Syrahs. Compared to six months ago, I think this trajectory is still upward. . Delicious.

The merlot component makes this very enjoyable now, but still needs time to fully integrate. Wait a while, 3+ years and this will reach potential imo
