Monte Bello Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2009

Delicious per usual. Last had 2 years ago and this is in a nice place. Perfect with skirt steak off the grill. A treat. — a day ago

Always solid! Didn’t realize this local place had BYOB on Monday’s, although I can’t recall the last time I drank on a Monday. Classic bell pepper with cherries and subtle oak. Nice texture and tannins. — a month ago

Every once in a while, the second label of Mount Eden (from the old Cinnabar property) nails it.

Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Winemaker dinner at Nari. This was clearly young and tasted next to the 2011 missing the depth of maturity — 3 days ago

It’s just too young. The older 2011 version was excellent.

Arnot-Roberts

Trout Gulch Vineyard Chardonnay 2021

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! — a month ago

Winemaker dinner at Nari. Fabulous and if not tied for WOTN it might win in some cases. — 3 days ago

They make a brilliant cab, too, as I’m sure you are aware…

What can I say? Absolutely delicious. Tasted after about an hour of bottle aeration. Will be paired with reverse seared, aged ribeye steak. — 9 days ago

Oyster Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc 2024

Smooth but welcomed acidic. Triangular. Stone fruit - more-so peach. Peppery with a hint of smoke on very end. Doesn’t overstay its welcome. If it was sweet it would a dessert. — 23 days ago

Cloudy Bay

Marlborough Sauvignon Blanc

Fruity and Acidic. Ideal showcase of Malborough Sauvignon Blanc for Tara and Harrison. — a month ago
