2016 Château Fleur Cardinale

First bottle from a futures purchase. Glad I waited. After 3 hour decant, opened up with concentrated dark fruits - rich merlot profile, but not overripe. Youthful tension and structure with fine tannins. Brilliant with the fillet mignon we had. Excellent first showing. Look forward to following its evolution.

2016 Bedrock Wine Co. Zinfandel Monte Rosso Vineyard

This was a disappointment. Not flawed but a below average wine. After 100+ bottles of Bedrock excellence and with an elite vineyard, I expected more than a light weight, red fruited, forgettable wine. Not sure what happened as I have had great enjoyment from other Bedrock Monte Rossos.

1999 Philip Togni Cabernet Sauvignon

My first Togni. Wow. Seems to me like the best of Bordeaux and CA are merged together in this wine. I could smell it all day long. Full of life and energy at 23ish years old. Beautiful fruit; tannins resolved. Best wine of 2023 for me (and probably 2022 for that matter).
