Reserve Claret Napa County Merlot Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

Lots of beautiful happenings on a bed of chocolate pudding, raisiny fruit leathery notes and creeping volatile acid for that elevating effect I love.

Soft, plush, chewy, has some weight with zero grip and satin texture.

Cocoa, coffee, cassis, lavender, fruit leather and cedar. Departing breakfast of bacon and blueberry sausage - so long and goodbye.

@Jay Kline @Pinotman /// Andreas I’m guessing he means too concentrated. It’s thick but for a cold night it works well.

Napa Valley Chardonnay 2022

Pale lemon in color.

Dry on the palate with a pronounced nose.

Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.

Showing limes, grapefruits, lemons, green apples, spices, herbs and light earth.

Long finish with tangy limes.

This is a delicious Chardonnay from Napa Valley. Nicely balanced and complex. Elegant and robust at the same time.

A good quality wine that will continue to age nicely in the next 5 to 7 years. Showing potential to become a 94+ point wine.

Easy drinking and good by itself as a sipping wine.

14% alcohol by volume.

92 points.

$50.

Light gold color. Complex nose filled with beeswax, camomile, white flowers, and something subtle and sweet like apple Now-And-Laters. Well balanced on the palate with good acidity and medium depth, but not as expressive as the nose, maybe some stone fruit and butter. Very good! — 12 days ago

Sonoma County Merlot 2019

Cinnamon, red cherry, raspberries, roses, lavender, spices. Caramel and other dark flavors/ tartness follow through. The aromas blare from the glass. Medium body with the intensity of something fuller, manageable tannins. Lingers and wants to be paired with lamb or complex cheese. Brilliant on its own. — 2 months ago
