This is one of the softest Cabernet Sauvignon from Napa floor I tested in a very long time. Extremely elegant, and beautifully structured, warm and delicious. The wine dances in your palate. The balance is striking and the finish is so delicate and crisp that takes you to a whole different level. Crazy delicious! — 4 days ago

This is an amazing IGT out of international variety Sauv. Blanc, it has a up lifting acidity, mild citrusy, mandarin peel. Compelling sapidity, nice minerality, dry and very refreshing. A subtle touch of wood, and low in AVB% 12. Deliciously mouthfeel. Cheers! — 12 days ago

A red blend from the right bank of Bordeaux, a value style (Lalande) out of pomerol. 84% Merlot and 16% Cabernet Franc offer medium structure, with some sourness of the red cherry and plums, some black coffee notes and dry leaves are part of showing its time already. Casual drinking will be the best to have it for. — 14 days ago

Tensley P2KV Rodney’s Vineyard is an amazing 50/50 Viognier & Marsanne, the aromatics are so inviting, baked pear, honey suckle, revigorating acidity, and perfectly balanced. Long lasting finish, but not over lingering. Another edition of Tensley P2KV’s that will disappoint! — 11 days ago

A highly aromatic Pinot Noir, dark cherry-driven, fruity and fresh. It’s in the jammy side when opened, but give it some time to breath (an hour) and it will show its amazing flavors of cinnamon and red fruits with an uplifting and refreshing acidity. It can age well, but the 2023 vintage is ready to go. Loved the finish! — 14 days ago

Aromatic and rounded Cab Sauv from the historical and oldest winery in Sonoma. A feast of berries, black currants, hazelnut and leaves on the tip of the palate makes an easy and appealing Cab Sauv, velvety and some hints of coffee in the mid-range and great long finish. Won’t disappoint at this price point that will put into test other cabs at a similar price point. Cheers! — 14 days ago

A top dog white wine from the legendary Tensley, and this one seats among the most aromatic of his line, a blend of 50/50 Viognier and Rousanne, from Santa Barbara. Honey suckle, floral with a compelling acidly, kumquats, tropical fruits, and harmonious balance and delicate texture. This wine takes you to another dimension! Long finish and the mouthfeel is so inviting! — 12 days ago

A great representation of an extremely approachable Syrah from Santa Barbara county. Medium-to-full-bodied, rounded and elegant, all red fruits on the nose concours to the palate from beginning to the very end. Medium tannins, some spices and wet woods are easily noticed. It’s a cork and pour, ready to go Syrah. Delicious! — 14 days ago
