Crusted Pie

Ridge Vineyards

Geyserville Sonoma County Zinfandel Blend 2018

Christmas pairing with pistachio crusted rack of lamb. Near perfect. Lots to be thankful for.

This Geyserville is drinking great. Blackberry jam, sandalwood, coconut. An awesome ripe accompaniment to the gamey lamb.

Stag's Leap Wine Cellars

Artemis Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2017

Soft smells of dark cherry, baked blackberries, buttery pie crust, hints of dark chocolate and roasty coffee in the bouquet. Stewed cherry, mild roasted coffee, hints of leather and grilling planks on the palate, well polished tannins with coffee liquor lingering nicely on the finish. Probably would pair with coffee crusted steak ;) — 4 years ago

Corison

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2009

Absolutely fantastic! Fruit has fallen and given way to savory notes on the nose. Thyme, oregano, baking spices , nutmeg, tomato bisque. Great acidity and fruit lingering. Almost a bramble note of rhubarb and cherry pie. Astonishingly well balanced and huge at 13.6% — 2 years ago

Otin Fiorin Piè Rupestris-Nebioli Barolo Nebbiolo 2017

Vigorously poured into a decanter about 30 minutes prior to service; enjoyed over the course of several hours. The 2017 Gabutti “Pie Rupestris” pours a deep garnet color with a transparent core; medium+ viscosity with no staining of the tears. On the nose, the wine is developing with heavy notes of ripe and tart Morello cherry, fresh cut roses (stems and all!), tar, dried herbs, exotic eastern spices, talcum powder and dried earth. On the palate, the wine is bone dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose, though everything seems to be enhanced on the palate; powerful! The finish is super long. This is a gorgeous example of 2017 Barolo and likely one of the very finest of the vintage. Drink now through 2067. — 2 months ago

Remarkable fruit. Anyone who rates this wine will be blown away by the the boysenberry berry pie of this wine. So intense that you should never drink this with food. — 2 years ago

Lytton Springs Dry Creek Valley Zinfandel Blend 2018

Young quality #zinfandel #petitsirah blend by Ridge - blackberry pie filling, vanilla and other sweet spices on the nose; beautifully balanced fruit and acidity ending in grippy tannins. Methinks this wine would be better laid down for 5+ years. — 4 years ago
