Very impressive Bordeaux blend, akin to some Meritage I used to drink from Napa before they priced me out of the market. Generous voluptuous balanced elegant complex, I mean - what’s not to like?! Go find some — 2 months ago

Very pure. Very fresh #Mencia It is an approach to #mencía that I love and that is tricky to get right, because it borders on the green but is just ripe enough. Youthful and juicy. #valdeorras — 3 years ago

Rosa Mystica Cabernet Franc 2017

Very nice. Some spice... cinnamon. And after a few hours an interesting synthetic floral note I couldn’t put my finger on... but liked it. Medium body. — 4 years ago

Sojourner Vineyard Pinot Noir 2015

Very exceptional effort from Owen Roe, with some bottle age. Warm compote and brown sugar with mild acidity make this a nice sipping wine with dinner. — 6 years ago

Ex Umbris Columbia Valley Syrah 2018

A garnet hue with a ring of ruby red catches your eye at first glance. Lots of red raspberries and black berries followed by dark chocolate, black pepper, oak and prolific earth. Great structure with lively acidity, balanced tannins leaving a zingy finish of black currants and a peppery bite. — 8 months ago

Dundee Hills Pinot Noir 2015

Red and black fruit mingle with turned earth and spice box characters. Lush while still playing lightly across the palate. Layers of ripeness are holding up on this 6 year PN. Velvet tannins and vibrant acid frame the wine from start to finish. A great representation of the 2015 vintage. — 4 years ago

Ravenna Riesling 2018

The Parting GlassCordon Glass Yakima Valley Riesling 2015

Of all the comrades that e'er I had
They're sorry for my going away
And all the sweethearts that e'er I had
They'd wish me one more day to stay

But since it fell into my lot
That I should go and you should not
I'll gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

Fill to me the parting glass
And drink a health whate'er befalls
Then gently rise and softly call
Good night and joy be to you all

Week, months, years will pass. But I will miss you every single day 💙
