Barossa Valley Shiraz 2021

Sweet dried red and black fruits, sweet oak, rich, ripe Barossa Shiraz, medium-long finish, for me, this borders on being over-the-top, but undeniably nice Shiraz. — 9 months ago

Terra Solis Vineyard

CABi Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

2021 vintage. Terra Solis Vineyard, Napa Valley Coombsville AVA. I was lucky enough to meet owner Frank W. Bishop ,Jr. , who generously offered me this bottle. He sells most of his grapes ( to some very famous names) and produces a tiny quantity under the Terra Solis label. A 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from the Coombsville AVA, that is cooler than the Valley floor AVAs because of its proximity to San Pablo Bay, which allows a later harvest and longer hangtime for the grapes. Deep dark red. Intense perfume with black fruit, spices, and toasty oak. In the mouth is beautifully balanced with layers of black fruit, fresh acidity, and relatively moderate alcohol ( abv. 14,2%). Personally, I would have preferred oak with a lighter toast, but that is obviously a stylisic choice, and the wine is excellent indeed. — a year ago

Own-Rooted Willamette Valley Pinot Noir 2017

This is a new wine by the Nicolas-Jay duo. A selective pick of Own-Rooted vines from three vineyards-Hyland, Nysa, and Bishop Creek. They isolated the pick, vinification, and barrel time. Some of the vines go back to 1972. I thought three things after tasting this wine... ”That’s some pure textured fruit in the glass”, “Man...I wonder how many cases are they going to keep for the house library”, and “Yeah, these guys know what they are doing”. — 5 years ago

Solid production team. I have been keeping an eye on them since the 2014 release, being a fan of Nicholas, I might be slightly biased, but it has been great OR wine.
