Château Haut Coteau

Saint-Estèphe Red Bordeaux Blend 2016

2016 vintage. Great, inky hue. Unhurried, musty nose with a hint of prunes. Medium-bodied. High plains drift…er…dryer with big tannins and not giving up any fruit other than the dark side: blackberries, plum and cassis currently. — 3 years ago

Sin Zin Zinfandel 2018

Always such a great Zin.

Smells of sticky jam berry.


Spicy boysenberry, Pomegranate juice, Eucalyptus, medium bodied, a touch of fruit pie, great acid to tannin drift.

Still a great Zin.

A shame good Zins have become such rarities.

Remember when this label was black and white?

Caiarossa

Toscana Super Tuscan Blend 2011

This Super Tuscan blend includes Cabernet Franc, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot and Syrah. The bouquet is intense but you know it’s going to be terrific. Long legs drift slowly down the glass. This Tuscan sourced red has flavors of blackberry and spice, and the finish is the real reward. Fantastic!! — 4 years ago

Jones Family Vineyard

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2002

Nose has ripe plum, mashed blackberries, dark chocolate powder, strawberry jam on leather, molasses, molasses cookies, wet soil, nutmeg and vanilla bean.

Palate has blackberry compote, black cherry reduction, partially dried plum, wet baking spice, wet+dry leather, dark chocolate shavings, (light) oak/vanilla influence remains. Extended finish, really starting to pick up incredibly at 3-4H in the decanter.

Paired with Allen Bros. ribcap (USDA Prime version) tonight, unfortunately our grill has a 4ft. snow drift in front presently so the best I can muster was a super hot cast iron pan from the oven, then onto stove with lots of butter and in 7m total we had beef to die for...Which I had some competition for dining this evening.

This bottle was a very generous gift from my West Coast brother
@David T from earlier in the year. My work travel schedule was hectic and never found a good time to settle in on a weekend with the wine or pairing, until now. (I've lost track of the amount of COVID tests I've done in the past 5M, but all have been negative 🙏 to date.) A fabulous gift to enjoy now that I'm hopefully relaxing for the next 2w...
Happy Holidays to everyone.🎄
