Rockford

Basket Press Barossa Valley Shiraz 2016

I received a bottle of Rockford as a 40th birthday gift, a wine I wasn’t familiar with at the time. After five years of aging, I opened it in the company of good friends – and what an experience! A rich and well-balanced wine, with intense flavors of berries and plums that really impressed. Wow, a wine that captivates with its harmony and depth. — a month ago

Château de Saint-Cosme

Little James Basket Press Jeune Solera Grenache 2021

Great Grenache from France. Rhône style red that comes through. The grape is the queen in this wine. Soft but with true flavor of the varietal. Blend of old and new vintage. Glad that I bought this. I am having it with an excellent vegetarian pizza and is wonderful. — 2 years ago

bright, zesty & sour medium-bodied orange with some lime, dill & pear flavors. it paired perfectly with my cajun charcuterie board. this pairing might’ve converted me orange wines as my signature for cajun/creole cuisine. we’ll see. — 3 years ago

Chateau Montelena

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1982

Medium-dark purple color, dark fruits (cassis, dark berry) still pretty youthful with loads of tannic structure, this wine may last longer than me, from the early days when I understand this cuvée had press wine in it, I just wish my dear friend George was still here to share this with me!! — 3 years ago
