Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

The nose is blackcurrant (cassis), blackberry —generally a ripe dark fruit. Also, vanilla, dark chocolate. Perhaps tobacco (on the palate). Medium acidity, long and velvety finish. — a month ago

Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2022

Very easy to like. Not one of the big hot years I love (2006, 2009, 2015) but not a Burgundian 2007 either. — 2 months ago

The epitome of smooth and majestic.
Not easy to find on the secondary market, but worth securing a bottle at the right price. Notes of mocha and espresso on the nose and mid-palate segue to polished tannins and moderate acidity. The capstone is a nice balanced weight and mouthfeel. Never disappointed with this botting.
