April 16, 2023 - Solid example of the Sequoia Grove style. Nose opens with Sequoia's predominate character of graphite, cedar and savory black fruit, along with vanilla-tinged barrel spice. While seeming initially slightly passed its prime on the palate, becomes more vibrant as it opens up. Needs some extended decanting time (+1 hour) for its significant secondary and tertiary aspects to develop, as increasingly ascendant earth, garrigue, and metallic elements perfectly balance its abundant Napa fruit. Best with food, as there is a substantial bed of underlying umami to complement the optimum fare. In this case, prime ribeye with wild mushroom sautéed in truffle and Idaho baking spuds coated with duck fat before roasting.

January 1, 2022 - Retail $55. 100% Cabernet Sauvignon. Honestly? I had forgotten about this wine and bottle. It was in a wine refridgerator on the third floor of the house. While I rarely fraternize with my sons’ central part of the indictment, I do know thee, but based on your nose, is a much darker (both in color and aromas) than I normally commandeer. Working as a dark red operative, tho, I sneak behind enemy lines to discover this dark, almost brooding wine with loads of dark berry (blackberry, black cherry, raspberry) fruit, along with plum, cassis (wait, that’s a berry), and earth. I guess this is close to a Whoa with incredible power and finesse. Yeah, OK, Whoa.
