Another classic Syrah on west coast better on day three. Violets, sticks, mint, olive, almonds?, blueberries. I get a strawberry mint on a savory grilled meat dish kind of flavor but zero smoke or burnt flavor. Outstanding! — 4 months ago
Vegetal, campfire, shiso leaf and almonds, quite a performance and cellar reward. — a month ago
Bright and refreshing rose - California by way of Portuguese grapes. Red berries (currant, raspberry) and short-ish but clean finish. Great deal at $15/bottle. Nice with manchego and duck prosciutto. — 3 months ago
2021. Drove to Omaha to attend an Arnot-Roberts wine class and tasting, and got there early to enjoy some delicious oysters with a bottle of fantastic Chardonnay that wasn’t on the tasting list. Unfortunately, Nathan Roberts flights were delayed and the class was cancelled, but we’re going home with a bunch of tasty wines instead! — 3 months ago
Beautiful expression of the local Sonoma Coast terroir (loam and schist soils) though made in an Old World style (foot stomping?). Fruit-forward cranberry, grape notes, light acidity and gentle tannins. — 5 months ago

I am not much of a CA Chardonnay drinker, but this producer vineyard has gotten my attention over the yrs. Not over oaked. CA burgundy for the most part. Good value at $39.99. — 20 days ago
