The Inheritance Kivelstadt Vineyard Estate Syrah 2018

ESF
9.4

🔥 - flat out fantastic! legit northern Rhône profile: very inky no signs of age - huge wafting nose after just a few minutes in the decanter: oozing blackberry spice cake, minty smoky peppery meaty earthy feral - a real wild child, on the palate it was much more restrained, refined, smooth med bodied - again, so much black fruit and all the notes from the nose, really Old World style: great material handled by an artist — 10 days ago

Father's Watch Venturi Vineyard Red Blend

Grenache Syrah. Carignon. Smooth, old world grapes but American fruit flavors. Not as light as a Rhone blend. Versatile blend. — 5 years ago

KC Labs Zinfandel

Juicy and tasty. Plenty of cranberry, strawberry, and black pepper notes. More herbaceous with good acid structure than I expected from a Mendocino Zinfandel. Very nice chilled. — 15 days ago

Twice Removed Loevin Vineyard Rosé of Mourvedre 2022

Same name but now a rosè of Grenache.
Crunchy, tart, refreshing, highly drinkable, almost effervescent. It reminds me of a paloma - enough tequila to keep it interesting, grapefruit juice and squirt to keep me asking for more

Twice Removed Lovett Vineyard Rosé of Mourvedre 2022

Crunchy and tasty and refreshing and all the things you would want on a summer Saturday in Sonoma.
It's a Paloma of wines - grapefruit and squirt with a touch of effervescence (served from C02 kegs) but enough tequila to keep it interesting
