Reserve Cabernet Franc 2018

A well-balanced nose of earth and fruit - think overripe strawberries meets grass and graphite. Incredible tannins and notes of leather, olive, and plums. Definitely worth decanting. Only 415 cases produced from Washington’s top AVAs (Walla-Walla, Red Mountain, Royal Slope...) — 5 years ago

Earthy, fresh mossy nose with a subtle caramel finish — 5 years ago

Torzi Matthews

Frost Dodger Eden Valley Shiraz 2018

Appassimento dry racked - my first of this style. Rich and ripe, thick tannin but far from overdone, lovely savoury black olive, mild spice, nice grip and enough acidity to keep it in balance. Keeps me coming back for more. — 6 years ago

Columbia Valley Chardonnay 2017

I am not normally a Chardonnay fan and I am i love with this single varietal chard from Matthews winery. It has light flavor of spices with a hint of dessert (although it is not sweet at all) refreshing, full bodied white wine — 6 years ago

Columbia Valley Merlot

What a bountiful Merlot. It is a healthy blend of berries with the slight nod to caramel and plums with a bit of tomato sauce. Full bodied & ready for pasta. — 6 years ago

Cuvée Red Blend 2018

The 2018 Cuvée has these wonderful floral notes which I think is from the Cab Franc. But is Merlot forward and it makes it a wine for all occasions. — 6 years ago

Clos Mogador

Priorat Red Blend 2016

A dense bright ruby in colour. Initially vanilla/oak notes which blew off with time in decanter. Dense rich and brooding - not giving much aromatically. Tight and muscular. Behaves younger than 7 years. Made by the redoubtable Rene Barbier, one of the founders of the revitalised Priorat movement as shown in the excellent documentary “Dreaming of Wine”. Full bodied and flavoursome. Rich and herbal - predominantly ripe Garnacha grapes. Red and black fruits. Had a wonderful visit there last year with the family and an informative tour and tasting at Clos Mogador. I love the fact that they have kept their wines affordable unlike their Priorat colleagues Alvaro Palacios (L’Ermita) and Daphne Glorian (Clos Erasmus) whose wines are quite expensive. This Mogador is so not ready to drink! Needs time in the cellar. Disagree with Thomas Matthews Drinking window of 2019 to 2024. Personally I think this wine will cruise through to 2030. I will leave the last one for around another 4 years. — 3 years ago

Thanks Andrew. I’m a fan of the Priorat district and their wines. The whites from Clos Mogador (Nelin) are also fabulous. Not that far from Barcelona.
