Nice balanced SB with angular acidic profile but also an underlying streak of earthy fruity profile. Opened for Wil/Abby first visit to FH. 11/14/21. — 3 years ago
Group BD dinner at FH. Brought by Paul Mark. Bright acidity and decent balance with that SB grassy note. Good with the crabs. — 5 years ago

12% natural Verdelho from California, might have guessed Burgundy blind. Waxy texture, bright fruit, richness. F’n delicious. FH easily becoming one of my favorite wine makers. — 6 years ago
Not a great vintage at Fritz Haag, but that doesn’t mean you don’t still get excellent wine. I’ve heard FH vintages of this era incorporate a lot of very young replanted vines. Perhaps that’s the issue. At 28 years there’s not much sweetness left, but, there’s sufficient delicacy, finesse, and nuance, to pull it through precisely with conviction. — 3 years ago

100% Alvarelhão. Had to look this one up- an Iberian port grape, grown in Alta Mesa, SE of Napa. 12.5%. 100% spontaneous fermentation, 100% stems, 20 day maceration. all stainless. Hipster level is off the charts. FH continues to slay. — 6 years ago
