Domaine de Bila-Haut L'Esquerda R.I. Rectificando Invenies Côtes du Roussillon Villages Syrah 2015

Stunningly extracted, concentrated and rich red that led with a velvety assault of undergrowth and wet earthy cat fur, and was followed by a big, round and brambly attack of blackberry jam, asian spices. Dark mineral tones. You gotta give this baby points just for the name, right out of Harry Potter, but as good as it was, not quite the 98 it advertised from Parker. I think this has years to go but the Syrah tannins, skin I sensed more, make me uncertain this is a super long hauler. I’d try a bottle now with food you’d pair a great young Shiraz to and give it a 3 hr decant. — 4 years ago

Boca Nebbiolo Blend 2010

It’s been two weeks since any activity on my end 🤷🏻‍♀️ I promise I’ve been drinking well! A thank you to @Antonio Galloni for letting @Samantha Potter and I join a mid-tasting lunch with a glass of this wonderful wine. I sadly didn’t take notes but I do remember it went down like silk, really delicious. — 6 years ago

Alexander Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 2004

Second bottle with a cork issue, this bottle also had a lot of settlement. Besides the slight corking the wine was as good as we remembered. Solid body, fruity and nutty, with great mineral flavors. — 4 years ago

Dove Hunt Dog Potter Valley Sauvignon Blanc 2020

Won this wine in a wine pull! Went really went with Greek marinated grilled chicken, grilled lemons, wild rice and cucumber salad. Balanced, lemony, lemon grass, not fizzy, touch of pepper and herbs- foods with lemon or herbs and this is a good choice!! — 3 years ago

Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend 2010

Vanilla laden lilac candy. A nice little nose.

An eloquent wine, with a lovely rounded mouthfeel.
Darker fruits fruit leather, a sprig of mint, a hint of currant, subtle is the fruit. Neither overpowering or underwhelming, this sits in a harmony I have not had in a while. Solid vintage. Solid wine. Gotta stop raiding the cellar..
And when I say cellar, let me clarify: it’s more where Harry Potter slept..
