Also from Costco. Surprised me, it's really nice. Cherries, plums, garrigue, and wet stones. Makes for an engaging sipper.

I don't know why I read other people's reviews when I'm posting. I think everyone who's commented on this wine have never had Pinot Grigio. I know that sounds demeaning ☹️
This wine is solid. Vibrant and acidic, with green apple, pear, and almond flavors. Gets better as it warms up.
And just so you know, I like the Ruffino better 😜 @Sharon B

This is not bourbon, it's rye.
Most 1792 offerings are very average, with a couple exceptions. This is a bottle that you don't see in the wild very often, and it is phenomenal! If you're a rye person, this checks all the boxes. Classic rye notes, flavors, mouthfeel and burn.

A pedestrian chianti. Cherry, herbs, pepper, but watery thin.

Got me a new pair of old man glasses at Costco and picked up a couple bottles. This Brunello is good but doesn't knock my socks off. Very light bodied, chewy cherries, flower petals, and tight acid. Short finish. Yes, I know @Doug Powers I shouldn't drink Brunello this young, but hey it's Costco. And I don't get the feeling this can go for a long haul.

After a 1 hour decant, silky and luxurious fruit reared its head. Cherries, plums, blueberries, spice, vanilla and dusty tannins. Delicious.
Additional note: a tertiary flavor eluded me until the 2nd day. It's miso.

The weather's a bit muggy but I grabbed a red anyway. This is light and uplifting! Ripe raspberries, a little spice, lightly floral. Big tannins, I feel like I'm drinking it 5 years early. Very enjoyable!

Pink bubbles. Gifted from my corner wine store owner. It's good to know people!

I grabbed this on the recommendation of @Sharon B
I would have thought this was reisling blind, due to a wee bit of rubber on the nose. I taste peach, pear, and macaroons. It's sweet. Most reviewers use the word "crisp", but this is neither crisp nor overly acidic. It's soft, and a bit flabby. If I had a dollar for every time I heard that.
Very enjoyable! Makes me want risotto for dinner.

I had this a few months ago, and grabbed another because it's very good. Decanter says 94 points, which is too generous, but it's a solid Rioja.
