2016 Folie à Deux Menage a Trois Midnight
2/9/2019 - Because1can Likes this wine: 90 Points
Nicely colored wine garnet to ruby in the glass. Nose of bing cherries and plums. The structure of the wine is plum and cherry with tart strawberry in the finish. Very mild tannin and neutral to no oak, alcohol blends into the wine nicley and is mildly detectable.
A good pop and pour wine just a bit simplistic.

NV Mount Palomar Cream Sherry Solera
2/9/2019 - Because1can Likes this wine: 98 Points
Hands down my favorite cream sherry from the oldest operating solera, in the US at least, simply devine.
Tastes similar to a creme brulee with a sauce of raisins and toasted almonds. Creamy notes of vanilla with a nice brandied body with a superb finish. A nice golden color in the glass shows the exquisite age of the wine base.
I simply love it, if you like Ports and dessert wines you will love this sherry too!!!

2014 Bodega Norton Malbec Reserva
2/8/2019 - Because1can wrote: 89 Points
Decanted for an hour and the wine had a sulfur smell. After decanting a little over two hours the offensive odor dissipated.
The nose after was of plum and raspberries with a underlying hint of oak and vanilla. Tastes of plum, dark fruits and white pepper with a very subtle cocoa and vanilla. The body of the wine is light to medium with a pleasant lingering mildly tanic finish.
