Enjoyed on Thanksgiving around the table at our new house. 🦃 Pairs well with turkey and potatoes. We were looking for Edna Valley and settled for Ed, but it all worked out well.

This is a perfect introduction to Glen Scotia. I’ve loved every sip I’ve taken of every Glen Scotia and this is kind of their house style and it’s most basic and straightforward form. I can’t say the “double barrel” added a huge amount of oakiness, but I prefer it that way. This features the great Glen Scotia notes of caramel, tobacco, stewed apples, brine and a little bit of smoke. A pretty amazing value. — 9 months ago
It's #AgedWineTuesday today. Here is a delicious one from California.
This 20 year old has a gorgeous nose.
Medium plus in body with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate with black fruits, cedar, vanilla, licorice, earth, green olives, spices, peppercorn, leather, tobacco and green vegetables.
Nice finish with spices and tangy raspberries.
What a great nose on this Syrah. Reminds me of a Napa Syrah.
Fruits are on the decline, by now, but it is still interesting and enjoyable by itself. Good with food too.
What a score.
I paired it with short ribs with truffled mushrooms.
12.4% alcohol by volume.

Fee-nominal…the winner (so far) of the 2010’s PV challenge. At 11.5 years from harvest, this beauty from Matthieu Finot sang like a concentrated Right Bank medoc…layers of dark berries, violet & herbs with smoky matting. Still proving enough tannic punch to cut through house grilled cheeseburgers and squash. Bold yet balance. Thank you Ellen for this wonderful gift :) — 3 years ago
