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. — 24 days ago

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

Lily Hill Estate Zinfandel 2019

Great ca zin. Blackberries galore, red apples, some earth and forest. Great acidity but still a rich zin. This is such an underrated winery. — 3 months ago

Martinelli

"Bella Vigna" Sonoma Coast Pinot Noir 2019

Martinelli family has been farming in Sonoma County since 1860. Deep Ruby color with aromas of red berry fruit and sweet spices. On the palate ripe cherry and blueberry flavors, with some dried fruit notes, oak, cinnamon spice and cola tones. Fine mouth coating tannins with balanced acidity carry this rich wine to a long finish. Good now will age a bit! — 2 months ago

Yes, that’s why his wines are quite a while on my wishlist. Today I will be receiving some 2020’s from La Ca’ Nova and Ca del Baio 🤩

Palate: smoky cherries. Quite good.

Rocca di Montegrossi

Chianti Classico Sangiovese 2020

Vibrant, if not elegant. Intense nose of ripe but sour cherry, lots of intense minerality. In the mouth it’s angular, intense, and acidic, but . . . in a kind of a good way. Great with pasta. — 2 months ago

Medium intensity on the nose, flavors of ripe red fruits (cherry) as well as herbal notes. Medium body and finish. Great value for money at CHF 10. — 2 months ago
