6/18/2023 - losososjoe Likes this wine: 90 pointsDelicious as usual. This one had a little more heft to it than I remember previous releases. Not quite as acidic and crisp, but a pleasure to drink. This one is 70% Syrah, 19% Grenache, 11% Cabernet Sauvignon. |

11/29/2022 - losososjoe Likes this wine: NRI have limited experience with real champagne and I have to say that this rosé as well as the blanc de blanc from Thienot are probably the best I have tasted. |

2018 Turley Zinfandel Mead RanchAtlas Peak more |
5/4/2022 - losososjoe Likes this wine: 93 pointsSo good right now. It's too bad the original vineyard is gone due to the CA fires. The is the last Turley Zin from Mead Ranch. No reason to hold in my opinion. |

2018 Turley Zinfandel Pesenti VineyardPaso Robles more |
1/17/2022 - losososjoe Likes this wine: 90 pointsTasting well. Not as good as the Ueberroth. I suggest PnP on this one. Seemed to lose flavor during the course of the evening sitting in a decanter. Best taste was the first. |

2018 Linne Calodo Problem ChildPaso Robles Willow Creek District Zinfandel Blend, Zinfandel more |
12/18/2021 - losososjoe wrote: 89 pointsNot sure about this one. It's OK, but not the usual problem child I am used to which is a PnP. I got some fizziness and high alcohol whiff after opening. This one may need to wait year longer. Even after resting a day, it still was not up to par in my opinion. |
