Les Genevrières Meursault 1er Cru Chardonnay 2011

for me wine of the night because it more than held its own with the big boys. The depth and intensity were off the chart. — 7 months ago

Les Vins de Vienne (Cuilleron Gaillard Villard)

Viognier 2019

3 big boys, Cuilleron, Villard, & Gaillard team up to produce nice wines at great qpr.
N. Lots of honeysuckle and peach, stone fruits. Mineral too.
P: the palate is where this shines. Oily, long, on lees for 9 mo. Melons, peaches, bit o’ pineapple. Lots of minerality.
Let that warm for a while, and it’s opulent.
A hint of bitter, stoniness on the finish.

The Girls in the Vineyard

Cabernet Sauvignon 2005

At 15 years old, perhaps slightly past peak maturity but still fruit dominated, with a little tannin. Nicely balanced though only a trace of structure; very pleasant. — 5 years ago

No Girls Wines

La Paciencia Vineyard Syrah 2011

Shay A
9.3

My choice for a Rhône style theme with my local group.

Definitely the oldest No Girls I’ve opened. As expected, these have a Burgundian flair to them in the way they are made when compared to Cayuse/HP/HC. Not as much depth/richness, but there is great acidity and the use of stems is clear. Faint ruby in the glass. Stemmy/green aromatics with herbs de Provence, black olive, Cayuse funk/iron on the nose. Saline, red and black berry driven on the palate with black pepper spice, truffle, beef jerky and big phenolics. Tart and acidic, I followed this over two days, and to my surprise, held up very well. Pop now.

No Girls Wines

La Paciencia Vineyard Tempranillo 2019

I hour decant! First time trying The No Girls 2019 Tempranillo. Color is a dark Ruby red. Nose- raspberry-cherry and roasted meat with a slight funk are the initial notes followed by dark soil, bitter chocolate and a touch of leather and pepper spices. Taste - juicy and chalky but well integrated flavors of red fruit, tart cherry and smoky cedar. Well structured and balance and could age another 10 years. Christophe Baron and his winemaker Elizabeth does it again! — 8 months ago

Mollydooker Wines

Blue Eyed Boy Shiraz 2020

Love these “Blue Boys.” Mollydooker (Aussie for left-hander) Wines was established in 2005 by Sarah and Sparky Marquis. Dark Ruby with dark berry fruit aromas adding sweet spice and cedar. On the palate this wine has complex flavors of blackberry and blueberry with licorice, cacao, oak and vanilla. Fine dusty tannins, peasant mouthfeel (16% Alcohol), full-bodied, long ending with a nice spicy finish. Aging well, good now, has room to run over short term. — 8 months ago
