Joie de Vivre Cabernet Sauvignon 2006

ESF
9.0

Nice, not great - stumbled on this in a small out of the way wine store, owner had personal friendship w/Jeff Gordon. Present very dark ruby, semi-opaque w/Old World nose of dusty cherry & rhubarb, musty, earthy, forest floor, some red berried fruit & currants, med bodied, smooth - believe this lost considerable weight over the years, more elegantly styled than sturdy & robust like many Napa cabs. Glad I got this on closeout pricing, pretty solid wine overall. — 3 years ago

Le Désir Sonoma County Cabernet Franc Blend 2013

I’ve had both La Muse and La Joie so I was happy to get to try Le Désir. I think I like this cab franc dominated blend the best. The nose is floral with green fresh notes. On the palate it’s rich, full bodied with a luxurious velvety texture. Dark fruit, bell pepper, spices, licorice with powdery tannins that starts to melt into the wine completely. Starting to hit its peak. — 2 years ago

A Noble Blend Okanagan Valley White Blend 2018

Never disappointed with this Alsace-inspired blend from Okanagan which includes Gewurtztraminer, pinot blanc, pinot meunier, riesling and a touch of muscat. Not as sweet as one might think. Clearly on the young side but perfect with a steelhead trout. — 6 years ago

Château La Mission Haut-Brion

Pessac-Léognan Red Bordeaux Blend 2002

Reticent. Dormant. Lots of mineral structure and earthy complexity. Youthful colour and aloofness on the palate. This lovely wine, which could use some joie-de-vivre, is full of class. Yet slightly hesitant to show it. — 15 days ago

Célébration de la Vie Okanagan Valley Moscato Giallo 2020

This low-alcohol poundable has a great nose of orange blossom, but the palate is all lime and mineral. I didn't think much of it in the tasting room, but at home while canning jam in our steamy kitchen, theis really hit the spot. I actually quite like it — 4 years ago
