King Family Vineyards

Monticello Petit Verdot 2010

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 :) — 4 years ago

Benziger Family Winery

Glen Ellen Imagery Series Syrah 1990

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.

90 points.

Cypress Ranch Pope Valley Sangiovese 2007

An excellent 2012 Sangiovese from a small winemaker in Glen Ellen (and a former general contractor who retired to make fab wines). We had it at a local restaurant in July 2013 and just had to visit the winery before leaving wine country ( & it was mid morning) and we were impressed...we have been hooked since then. Uncorking this amazing bottle for tonight's dinner is a celebration of over 4 years of great times and a new chapter! — 9 years ago

ED Edmundo Cabernet Sauvignon

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.

Kivelstadt Cellars

Mother of Invention Lovett Vineyard Viognier-Rousanne 2015

Jordan Kivel Stadt and the "Rent" have been experimenting and making some amazingly brilliant wines over in Sonoma (Glen Ellen)! Following many of the true southern French styles and techniques. He not only bottles them, but puts many on his 'wine on tap' system, that pours out at the exact temperature by varietal (my pet peeve). Wonderful White with good acidity and fuit balance. — 10 years ago

I can't believe delectable was able to identify this. I love that they sell it in liter swing tops. If you haven't been to the Kivel Stadt tasting room in Glen Ellen, go. — 10 years ago

Glen Scotia

Double Cask Single Malt Scotch Whisky

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. — 2 years ago

This was a Chardonnay, or got it during my visit to Glen Ellen in 2005 with Barry. The wine stored since 11 years still tasted fabulous, young fruits, beautiful finish on the palette. Soft nutty after ysstes. Lovely yellow golden color. — 9 years ago
