Excellent. Likely the best Syrah we’ve had in a long time. Time does this well. Still dusty and big but balanced. — 11 days ago

1hr+ decant. Young wine! Dark red color with purple rims. Dark cherries, anise, and maybe sweet plums? Deep wine, with lots of Syrah and Spanish/Portuguese elements. Age will make this even better. — 2 months ago

Copper Streak Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2012

Pretty dark purple in color. Aroma has a big caramel impression with some dried fruits layered in - think date. Body is heavy syrup like that finishes velvety. Great balance between a tart acidity and medium sweetness. Age has been very kind to this bottle. — 5 months ago

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Was worried that this would be fruity and oaky. I should’ve known not to worry. The nickel family is serious about this wine. It’s very dark and I fear too young. Stood up very well with steak and punched back. Hit it with 100% pure oxygen and it’s still tight. Has some nice savory notes hiding the fruit here. Feel like I’m eating the wine. But I like it. — 4 months ago

@Joe DAscoli how does one hit it with pure oxygen? Sounds crazy.

Stiling Vineyard Chardonnay 2013

14.5% abv. Lovely delicious wine. It was strange that first sip was so off but in a matter of minutes it transformed into a gorgeous wine. Paired with caviar and sushi. Perfect match. — 2 months ago
