Nice color and aromatics of caramel and toffee. 39 years and shows a mix of age and soft maturity. Best with a light fruit based dessert like lemon or lime based cake perhaps. Fun to share at Bourbon Steak @ Levi Stadium. — 7 years ago
Very interesting wine from the Azores. I heard the producer Antonio Macanita on Levi Dalton’s podcast and have been wanting to try - amusing to have the chance to do so off the northern coast of Newfoundland. Tons of ripe strawberry on the nose, and lots of light red fruit on first sip. With a bit of air the deeper earthy / volcanic notes come through, all knitted together with exceptional acid. Versatile pairing wine and generally both interesting and delicious. — 7 years ago
Our 3rd Taco Bell/couple of fun bottle Levi Stadium concert fireup this summer.
2 hour decant(little fine/cloudy sediment). A brooding inky black garnet color. On the nose: subdued notes of blackberry, currants, cedar, pepper, dusty earth, mint, pencil lead. Taste: hmmm, little FLAT.....tough to pick out any flavors. Hopefully just in a dumb phase right now....time to pop the other bottle. — 4 years ago

A fantastic day in Santa Clara! Enjoying this wonderful wine with lunch before seeing the Rolling Stones at Levi Stadium.. A blueberry dark cherry on the nose. The dark fruits, floral and spice burst in the mouth lingering with cassis, chocolate and vanilla notes. Medium finish and a beautiful dark purple color. — 7 years ago

Wow! J'ai recherché la cuvée après avoir entendu Benjamin Leroux en parler dans le podcast de Levi Dalton (I'll drink to that). Il était particulièrement enthousiaste pour ce climat en altitude (pour la Bourgogne, on s'entend), lequel est très majoritairement occupé par des vignes de Chardonnay (Meursault). Selon lui, le réchauffement climatique en fait un terroir idéal pour le pinot. Je dois lui donner raison avec ce 2017. Quel beau vin! Robe translucide et pâle, arômes dégourdis, de fruit, mais aussi de fleurs et de fines épices. En bouche, l'attaque est riche et de bonne concentration. La transition en milieu de bouche amène la fraîcheur et un côté minéral. Cette acidité porte le vin dans une longue finale. Les tanins sont nombreux et fins. Le vin est accessible, mais je crois qu'il a ce qu'il faut pour évoluer harmonieusement. J'ai beaucoup aimé et je le recommande vivement. — 6 years ago

This is a soulful wine that deserved more description than I was able to give in a busy week. So instead I’ll encourage you to listen to Serge Hochar’s “I’ll Drink To That” interview with Levi. Cheers to @Jay Kline for suggesting I listen. It’s terrific. — 7 years ago

After listening to a @Levi Dalton on I’ll Drink To That, I was reminded that Portuguese wine still exists (outside of Port!) is crazily priced& this bottle by a woman vintner intrigued. 80% Touriga Nacional & multiple varieties including a “5% other”. The intrigue continued with a lovely spice & herbal nose, w some dark red fruit compote. Body is decidedly smooth, no hard edges, medium framed but robust, & with a lovely grip & dark red/black fruits. At 13$& change, a year in used French Oak & another 6 months in bottle, that’s a lot of wine & craft for your dollar. Didn’t find the oak monster intrusive at all, very integrated & subtle — 7 years ago
