Howell Mountain Cabernet Sauvignon 2014

2014 vintage. New release...no really! Held back for a decade until "ready." Medium-heavy body and Cabs don't get much darker in color than this. Tasted more like Spring Mountain or Mount Veeder to me tho as it was missing that Howell Mountain uppercut on the finish. Very nice and the price wasn't as ridiculous as you would expect for a decade-aged, HM Cab project. Producer to keep an eye on for down the road efforts. Heart is in the right place. 8.28.24.

Never heard of them. Are they on Howell or just buying fruit from someone?

@Norman Gennaro Looks like they are buying fruit from serious sources.

Napa Valley Red Blend

Never been a fan of over the top labels as I’ve been fooled by pretty packaging before. Recommended as worth a shot to me so took the plunge - and it’s definitely smooth. Sade’s Smooth Operator comes to mind as this almost silky smooth...but with an uppercut given its 15% strength. Jammy red ripe fruit blend that has a super pleasant aroma on the nose. Strong, supple and powerful - not for a school/work night! Minor quibble with the cork not being covered as I distrust the shipping process for wine as a general rule - cover the cork at this price point! — 6 years ago

Bodegas Alto Moncayo

Veraton Garnacha 2016

Bergamot, cranberries, lavender, subtle earl grey tea.

Wow. Perfect balance. Hits all of my favorite taste profile notes.

Uppercut punch to the jawline with the welcome acidity, tart blueberry jam pie, and even some spice notes that I can’t really pinpoint.

I just know this would pair exceptionally well with some bake lamb. When a wine makes you crave a specific food, they did something right. And also I just went for an 8 mile run and I’m hungry.

This wine just makes me happy. And it’s kind of hard to explain why. And that only happens about 1/10 bottles.

The Boxer Shiraz 2018

Deep, ruby pools of bergamot, red roses, cherries, and a hint of cinnamon. I’d love to dive in.

Rich, dense flavors like biting into a juicy dark red cherry. Spice undertones of cinnamon and black pepper. Smacks of plums and tobacco.

Powerful uppercut.

Metzuda Winery

Raziel Cabernet Sauvignon

Very nice blend, (Cab/Merlot/petit Verdot/Shiraz) nice dark ruby color with many different characteristics off the nose. Coffee, wood, dark chocolate, very Robust berry with an uppercut of tannins. Even after letting it open and decanter it kept on surprising me with different flavors. Had it with the wrong dish, should not be with anything spicy since it will not enhance the dish. Was great with very nicely seasoned meats. — 7 years ago
