Gevrey-Chambertin Pinot Noir 2022

Honest this one’s just okay. A bit too much alc. Says 13.2% but feels closer to 14%. It’s just out of balance — 4 days ago

Zinfandel 2022

This is enjoyable in a massive CA overripe wine style! There’s a good amount of all the peppers, bell, jalapeños, white, cracked black, huge amount of purple/black fruit. Jan. Vanilla and some woodsy notes. I’d drink again. — 2 months ago

Rapture Cabernet Sauvignon 2022

This and the rose are my favorites from Michael David. Huge wine. Explosion of fruit on the nose. Not a lot of oak/wood which is great. Smooth and drinkable. This is a great bbq wine that at or just bellow cellar temp is even better. I’d buy again — a month ago

Earthquake Lodi Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Dark berry fruit in the nose, soft and fruit forward on the palate - approachable and food friendly but not overly tannic. Excellent! — 21 days ago
