A nice Bojo while I watch Stanford v. Texas. Love the nose on this. Just explosively granitic, but there’s some cherry/wild berry fruit and pungent spice too. Much more austere on the palate than the last bottle I had a year ago. Bone dry, pretty much all granite, and a tad astringent. It’s very enjoyable now, but extrapolating the two date points (now and a year ago) suggests to me that these should be drunk up.

UPDATE: Night 2, the fruit is more present and the wine is softer. Maybe it’s night 1 showing simply reflects a dumb phase. Upping from 9.0 to 9.1. — 2 years ago

@Bob McDonald - Unfortunately Oregon lost their Super Regional series to Oral Roberts.

Ok. Thanks Tom. They have slipped a bit. I remember it wasn’t that long ago I think they competed for the Rose Bowl and may have won it?

Wow what a nice surprise for a Santa Cruz Mtn Chardonnay. Ripe stone fruits and secondary tropical notes. Soft, limestone like texture but definitely not grown anywhere near limestone!
Soft-round acidity.

Hard to be objective about this OG wine from a fellow Stanford alum. Really love this vineyard and this wine at 10 years young was probably still baby killing. Could easily go another 20+ years. Although it was perfect tonight with a handmade summer burger and tater tots! Really top shelf Malbec and a $100 wine from Argentina really does compare to a $200+ wine in Bordeaux or Napa. — 4 years ago
