Bring It Grenache Noir 2021

From Cambridge Wines. Actually a blend of a whole lot of stuff lol. Leathery red currants, mellows out to raspberries in the finish. Maybe some chocolate in there. I’m getting a lot of Pinot Noir energy 🤔 — 2 months ago

Argyle

Grower Series Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2021

Surprised to see the low rating on this. I really like it for 20 bucks. Blueberry, cherry, some earth, maybe a bit of green tree, cocoa powder at the end. Good acidity. Great weeknight wine. I’d highly recommend. — 2 months ago

Suertes del Marqués

Vidonia Viñas Viejas Valle de la Orotava Listan Blanco 2020

Lovely. Thought it was a Chablis in our blind. Very mineral-driven, bright, and textural. I thought it had a touch of oxidative musk, but it didn’t detract from the quality of the wine. One to revisit. — 2 months ago

Vieux Château Certan

Pomerol Red Bordeaux Blend 2004
