This is a very tasty sparkling wine from Russian River Valley. Feels very fresh, complex and entertaining. Nicely balanced and elegant.
This 6 year old Blanc de Blanc will continue to age nicely in the next 7 years.
Good right out of the bottle, and good by itself or with food.
100% Chardonnay grapes were aged for 4 years on the lees.
13.5% alcohol by volume.

Clear, deep ruby in color; on the nose, it's clean with pronounced primary and secondary aromas of cassis, blackberries, ans cedar; on the palate, it's dry with high acidity, medium tannins, high alcohol, full body, and pronounced primary and secondary flavors of black cherries, black currants, eucalyptus, and wet gravel with a medium finish.

This Single Vineyard Grenache from Walla Walla Valley is very stinky and austere on the nose.
Complex and very interesting, but not what I expected at all. Feels more like an old world wine.
Wine Advocate 95 points. Wine Spectator 94 points. Wine Enthusiasts 94 points.
I had a recent vintage a couple of years ago and it showed much better. Might just be this particular bottle, or it could be past its prime by now.
A good quality wine and still very drinkable.

2007 vintage. Nice fill. Used a Durand to open but good cork nonetheless. Decanted and tasted after 15 minutes. JFC...does the oak ever die on this nonsense? Tried to bushwhack through it without success. Even the Alexander Valley product has the good sense to have the oak minimized/integrated/drop off after a decade. Not the case here. There's a reason why I haven't even considered carrying this on a wine list since the late 90's. This go round didn't exactly convert my opinion. 8.16.26. — 18 days ago
