4/17/2024 - sfwinelover1 Likes this wine: NRBrought to Amima as a small thank you to MNWJ (WBW also benefited, as he should for having chauffeured the old guys through the Valley for 2 days) along with the Ovid (I’m nothing if not gracious). I’ve written at length about this but mostly weigh in here to say that 1) I think that this continues to be prime drinking window with no signs of fading in sight, and 2) while I think that this pairs immaculately with meatier fish, poultry and perhaps even something like a lean pork, it was just too robust for the mostly white Omakase (the Cristal, a Spottswoode SB or even the Eden Rift chard would have paired better), even though this wine could never be truly inappropriate with much of anything. This is still a 100 pt’er for me, joining the ‘21 Bella Oaks as the only perfect wines of the trip. Acquiring more at what I paid for these would be a complete no brainer. |

4/25/2024 - Cyclist Likes this wine: 99 pointsHave heard about this wine for years. Touted as the best domestic US Chardonnay people have ever had. An absolute treat, this lives up to the talk, even with several years of age on it now. A beautiful, French-styled white that is so effortlessly balanced, while remaining quite bold at the same time. I would be glad to have more of these in my cellar. 1 person found this helpful, do you? Yes - No / Comments (5) |

4/13/2024 - Mortgage92 Likes this wine: 94 pointsThe aromas and flavors are still good in this bottle, but I would consume within no more than 2 years. Unfortunately, this is my last bottle (this vintage - but absolutely have more Morlet in the cellar, don't you?) The wonderful dark cherry with earthy flavors and the long lasting finish make this one of the better pinots in California. |

4/5/2024 - dcwino wrote: 94 pointsAnother Wine gathering at RJ’s; 4/4/2024-4/7/2024 (Palmetto Bluff, South Carolina): Expressive nose displaying ripe yellow tropical fruit, pineapple, peach, kumquat, caramel, butterscotch, sweet spices and mineral. Very good concentration, generous sweet yellow fruit, warm and round, medium acidity and mineral, and a medium to long ripe yellow fruit driven finish with butterscotch at the end. This is very round. |

4/1/2024 - Stufonhead Likes this wine: 95 pointsMm mmm! Super from the getgo. But from advice from prior note I gave it 90 minutes of air, which softened it a bit and eased up the over the top fruit density. Still youthful but so good, I feel great to drink now. Have yet to finish the bottle so I may come back and change rec if it evolves into something even better. Basically I'm saying little risk in holding or giving it more air. |

3/9/2024 - AllRed wrote: 92 pointsSmall Tasting & Dinner with Friends: Double blind. Light straw yellow color with a subtle green tint. Lovely fruit- pear and dried peach- along with coconut, vanilla and jasmine notes. Full-bodied. The palate mirrors the bouquet, with just a kiss of oak spice in the finish. Could use another year or two as well. |

3/1/2024 - Bbrown82 Likes this wine: 92 pointsBig bold Syrah from Bennet Valley. Had multiple Morlet wines while this is not my favorite offering still very good. Quality fruit and quality wine making. Wine is very dark purple. Black fruit, oak, vanilla, drying tannins. This was a lot better the second day so needs a good decant to fully show itself. 92 points. |
