Orin Swift

Palermo Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2016

Another solid vintage of an old favorite. Primarily Cabernet Sauvignon with some Merlot and Cabernet Franc blended in. Dark ruby color with purple highlights. Aromas of cooked black fruit, forest floor, rose petals, violets and wet soil. Flavors of black berry/currant/plum, tobacco, anise, huckleberry, mint and dark chocolate. Well balanced, herbal and savory long finish. Well integrated tannins. Medium-plus body. Fruit forward but well crafted. — 8 days ago

Abstract Grenache Blend 2022

Lordy this is good—smooth, supple red blend offering strawberry and mint at first and a softly tannic raspberry bite after. Drinks lighter than the alcohol. Had with burgers, could see it with BBQ or even a steak. — 3 months ago

Blank Stare Sauvignon Blanc 2023

On the nose, this is mineral, lime, and a twinge of pear. On the palate, any hint of pear has gone away... Mineral for sure... Lime sage. This one's a bit past medium acidity. This one's alive and of course includes the unique Orin Swift label which shouldn't be ignored here. A solid offering. Length here too. Back to the lime and sage. Having trouble picking out much else beyond sage, mineral, and lim which affects the score, but truly enjoyable. — 2 months ago
