Reed Vineyard Pinot Noir 1981

The wine opened up quite a bit after decanting for an hour or so. Great tawny color, notes of sour cherry and raisins, long aftertaste. Will integrated tannins. An awesome bottle! — 6 days ago

Winemaker dinner at Nari. Fabulous and if not tied for WOTN it might win in some cases. — 2 months ago

They make a brilliant cab, too, as I’m sure you are aware…

Sequoia Grove

Stagecoach Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

This really leans into the darker aspect of Cab. Dark cassis, loads of dark crushed stone, baker’s chocolate, dark iodiney savory notes. Intense in the mouth, but with surprisingly nice acids for its 14.9 frame. Rich, but bone dry. Still tannic, but it’s soft. — 4 months ago

Mount Veeder Cabernet Sauvignon 2015

I really enjoyed the complexity of this wine. Maybe it’s because they use 100% Cabernet Sauvignon grapes and bottle unfiltered. Flavor profile includes blackberries, raspberry, and an earthy finish.
if you have a chance to enjoy a bottle, don’t hesitate.

@Doug Powers If you get a chance try their top Cuvée - the Langi. One of our best Shiraz I think.

@Bob McDonald, when we visited there in November of 2023, I purchased a couple bottles of the Langhi, Mast and another Shiraz cuvée. Letting them rest a bit in the cellar.

Santa Cruz Mountains Cabernet Sauvignon 2019

Winemaker dinner at Nari. This was clearly young and tasted next to the 2011 missing the depth of maturity — 2 months ago

It’s just too young. The older 2011 version was excellent.

2011 would rate a 9.4/9.5

Turley

Mead Ranch Zinfandel 2017

This wine hits with massive brightness and blueberry flavors. But it also has excellent acidity to avoid it being sweet or fruit bomb like.

Pretty good with some age on it.

M3 Adelaide Hills Chardonnay 2019

Clean apple and peach notes, some oaky/resinous funk. After an hour hints of matchstick and toast occur.
Very Nice.

Gaining complexity and depth after extended aeration. Up a notch,
