2018 Morgen Long Chardonnay Willamette Valley

A wow value at this price point. Really pretty floral/polleny, lemon and slight leesy character on the nose. Palate is restrained but still somehow quite flavorful, with a effortless mid weight and perfect med+ acid. Ton of upside to holding as well, there is a lot of complexity hiding behind the primary notes here. Very enjoyable, good on its own or at the dinner table.

2001 Altesino Brunello di Montalcino Montosoli Sangiovese

Christmas dinner - no formal notes
Maybe not as profound as our previous bottle? Still lovely, and like a true Brunello, really elevated by a great lasagna.

No danger of decline any time soon

2018 Eisele Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Altagracia Napa Valley

Glossy black fruit and lemon on the nose. Amazingly hot on the palate - tour de force de blowtorch. High 70s-low 80s
