• The Drunken Cyclist Likes this wine: 90 points

  January 29, 2017 - There are a few people in the wine industry that I would consider walking up to, smacking them on the back, and say “How the hell are you, you son of a bitch?” Stuart Spencer is certainly near the top of the list. His father did more to put Lodi on the map than perhaps any other individual outside the Mondavi family and Creedence Clearwater Revival. The wines of St. Amant mirror Stuart’s personality: quiet at first, but once they open up, there is a lot there to discover. This wine was rather tight initially, but with time, solid fruit and balance. Stuart does not try and hide the fruit in his wines, nor should he. Yet another example of why Lodi is one of the more under-valued wine regions in the world. thedrunkencyclist.com
