Glacier Ridge Vineyards Merlot 2012

Great structure, nice body, chewy, with verve. Earthy and savory, baked clay, underbrush, smoke and menthol. Just a tad austere. More generous fruit would have elevated this.

It hit another level on day 2, with the flavors crystallizing and more dried fruit, coffee, and milk chocolate coming on. Complex, food friendly and delish!

Grey [Glacier] Single Block Las Terrazas Vineyard Pinot Noir 2017

This Chilean Pinot Noir offers a nose that is heavy with cola, black tea and coffee grounds. The savory aromas actually outweigh the fruit. It is a medium-weight wine, not very deeply tinted, and it rides light on the palate. The acidity is brisk and the tannins firm. This is not a Burgundian take on the grape, for certain. It is more playful than elegant, more rustic than beautiful.

Dusty on the outside but pristine on the inside. I’ve tasted this a handful of times over the last 15 years and it’s developing at a glacier-like pace. Still bright in colour and long and structured with red and blue fruits foiled by herbs and some stemmy notes. Classic Allemand and my favourite of the ‘90s along with ‘94 & ‘99 - 1995 — 6 years ago

Bodega Catena Zapata

San Carlos Mendoza Cabernet Franc 2014

Lovely crushed berries make up the nose, like a jam making factory at first pressing.

Fruit leather black raspberry, Ouzo like anise, grit from the cherry pit, blanched plum.
Ending in tonsil smacking cedar stave,
Love the push for Cab franc in the fertile glacier hewn soils of South America.

Grey [Glacier] Single Block Trinidad Vineyard Carménère 2022

Nose of tart fruit and spice which shows up in the palate as well. Silky tannins that take a little time to build up. Easy to drink for a medium bodied red. It's holding up well to hearty spicy chilli, and the spice of the food is letting the fruit show more through the spice notes of the wine. Curious to see how it develops when I have some tomorrow. — 8 months ago

Grey [Glacier] Single Block Tapihue Vineyard Chardonnay 2017

50% вина 12 месяцев выдерживалось в бочках из французского дуба. Яблочно-сливочное. Яблоки, спелая груша, свежий миндаль, ваниль, тосты, нюансы мёда, вербена, штрихи орехов. Округлый, мягкий, очень приятный вкус. Хорошая кислотность. Долгое послевкусие с кислинкой. Г-н Паркер конкретно этому году поставил 90 баллов, не смею спорить. Большое удовольствие. — 6 years ago

The Fox and the Leopard Doppelbock - Lager

A big and rich lager, toasted barley beer.

BREWER'S NOTE:

This richly styled lager is perhaps far from a traditional Doppel Bock due to the use ofwine barrels during aging, Calistoga Well Water as well as our use of Glacier hops. A 5 week 55 F fermentation yielded a crisp and malty driven beer with mild hop notes. Lot 15040727 was aged in freshly emptied first use Petite Verdot French oak barrel from 2012 where it aged for another two months. The aromas are very bold and bright showcasing the impacts of the barrel while the power of this 9.1% Alc. v/v lager pushes back both with flavor and palate texture. These beers are Membership only releases. Lot 16040693 was aged in a French Oak puncheon for 3 months and has an alcohol by volume of 7.8% v/v. Our upcoming release Lot 170613150 spent 5 months in a relatively new French Oak barrel and with an alcohol of 8.6% v/v is more of an Eisbock in style, although probably our best effort to date with wonderful malt tones integrated with oak spice as well.

Glacier Ridge Vineyards Cabernet Franc 2014

A surprising wine - more the color of Pinot Noir than a classic cab Franc but so aromatic and elegant. Medium ruby, gorgeous nose of violet, leather, black olive, forest floor and blackberry.
Medium plus acidity, very long finish

Argile Blanc Allobroges St. Pierre de Soucy Jacquère Blend 2019

#1 of Jura Savoie evening
40/40/20 blend of Chardonnay / Jacquard and Mondeuse Blanc
Clear & pure as a alpin glacier.
Shy herbs, salty notes and faint whiff of underripe lemon.
On the palate this is crisp, lean and so juicy. Great purity and minerality. So devoid of fruit and yet with a lot of character. This is surprisingly nice and highly drinkable.

Grey [Glacier] Single Block Trinidad Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

This wine is dark and savory. The black fruit comes along with cedar, vanilla and a chalky earth tone. Nothing like Napa Cabernet Sauvignon, but more in line with Paso Robles. Lots of South American minerals having a bit of roughhouse here. — 6 years ago
