11/30/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 87 pointsPeach, passion fruit and melon with citrus on the finish. A little more restrained than some NZ Sauv Blancs which I like and I think makes it more food friendly. |

2014 Laird Family Estate Jillian's BlendNapa Valley Red Blend more |
10/30/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 89 pointsDark plum and raspberry nose, tasting looses some of the fruit because of the tannins. Don't know if additional decanting/aging would have helped or if this is just an imbalance. Some fruit carried through for a nice finish. |

2022 Cellier d'Eguilles Coteaux d'Aix-en-ProvenceRosé Blend more |
10/7/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 88 pointsNote, in my mind roses can be fun to drink, they can be good even very good but never exceptional wines. Going on that basis this is a good to very good wine. Floral and strawberry with some minerality, a nice finish. This wine has enough acidity to drink with light to medium foods. |

2018 Michele Chiarlo Langhe Nebbiolo Il PrincipeLanghe DOC more |
10/7/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 89 pointsThis wine is very good now, not one for long term cellaring. All of the flavors of Nebbiolo but not the tannins and structure to age. That is not bad, just depends on what you want. Lots of plum and strawberry with some floral notes just missing the underlying notes of leather that develop with Nebbiolo. Good wine if you want a Nebbiolo without waiting too much. |

9/5/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 87 pointsDark cherry and a little plum on the nose, tasting seems to bring out more of the plum and some baking spices. Medium+ tannins with a nice overall balance, good finish but doesn't linger for too long. Good wine overall, very good at this price point. |

2019 Bodegas Antonio Candela e Hijos Yecla Parcelica ChicaMourvèdre Blend, Mourvèdre more |
8/28/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 82 pointsReally rough start, that was before starting dinner, luckily that gave it more time. It got much better but it started so low that was still just into the good / acceptable range. Now after dinner, 3.5 hours after opening, it has probably gotten as good as it will get. Some undistinguishable dark fruit, medium to full body, good amount of tannin and acidity that hangs around. OK for $12 but yuou can do better. |

8/15/2023 - mrkoors Likes this wine: 86 pointsI like old world pinots but this one was just lacking in the typical flavor, muted strawberry and raspberry, seemed like tannins were too much. Might be too old |
