Straight forward easy drinking cold weather white. Citrus zip with a clean finish. Great with a simple meal of chicken, lemon, and parm. Not too much acid. Cheap and tasty. — 5 years ago
2007 a sub par year with cool wet weather then dry late.
A 1 hour decant (little cloudy sediment). A inspiring dark garnet color with some nice bricking on the sides for this 2nd growth. On the nose: green veggie, black olive, plum, cassis, and just a little of that Margaux perfume. Taste: A medium body, soft wine with chocolate, little black cherry, leather....a smokey tobacco slightly astringent medium finish. Low acidity, and any elegance and finesse is buried and not going to rise like a zombie from the grave...drink em if you got em. — 5 years ago

Nice decently priced Napa Cab. Part of the Stormy Weather vineyard, this was a solid Cab, with a decent finish. — 5 years ago
Newish vintage, 600 cases produced. 94/6 blend of Grenache Blanc and Roussanne from three vineyards: Boushey (81% GB), Weather Eye (13% GB), Olsen (6% R). Pale yellow white, excellent clarity. Floral, vanilla and mild aldehydic barnyard aromas. Guava, lactic flavors, tropical fruit finish (banana then coconut? But this ain’t no Piña colada). Lingering cherry and heavy (skin and seed) tannic aftertaste . This is either serious experimental winemaking, or ultra craft-focused ‘blanc de noir’, or is this just their iteration of a pale “orange” wine? Massive tannins for a “white” wine. Not a wine for the faint of heart. Dry, just enough acidity, fruity but still pondering this one... The trop fruit flavors backed off, with cherry and other red fruit and Grenache character flavors emerging after 30-60 minutes. Tannins also softened somewhat, with patience — 5 years ago
