2022 Macchia Petite Sirah Dubious
4/18/2024 - gamlingman Likes this wine: 92 Points
One of the best Wines in this price range I have had in some time. My Favorite Varietal & this disappoint. Big & concentrated up front indicating it can 100% handle more time in the bottle. Opening slowly with intense pepper & cherry, followed on the next glass ripe with big strawberries. Tannins were firm. Finish was still too much pepper but that will mellow with age. Outstanding wine. Going to grab some more!

NV Caymus 1858 Red Blend California
3/8/2024 - gamlingman Likes this wine: 88 Points
Not a big blend guy but the Wagner Family knows how to get it done. Great deep garnet color with a fairly big nose. Lots of dark berries & a bit of toast in there. Very smooth drinkable wine with lots of flavor. Solid choice in this price ranger.

2020 Courtney Benham Cabernet Sauvignon Melange du Baum Mt. Veeder

I believe whoever rated this 87 points drank a different bottle as the photo shown is not the same wine. Had this with friends at a private tasting the other evening and it was by far the best wine we had that night. Big Bold & upfront in your face fruity, while the structure itself had a nice full finish that will bet better with age.
