Popped and poured; enjoyed with brunch. The 2014 is finally open for business and only just. The wine pours a deep ruby/purple color with an opaque core; medium+ viscosity with moderate staining of the tears and signs of sediment. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of ripe black fruit: black berries, black plum, leather, licorice, some cocoa, earth and warm spices. On the palate, the wine is dry with high tannin and medium+ acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+. Boy, those tannins are still rippin’! Drink now through 2038. Only 50 cases made. — 19 days ago

First experience with the ‘09 Ramey Rodgers Creek Syrah some 15 years after harvest. Shows beautifully still. Inky, minerality and dark fruits on the nose, incredibly smooth on the palate with graphite, earth, plum, brambly blackberry and more. Powerful now with some years left. — 4 months ago

Love this producer and love the single vineyard rieslings. There is an acetone type funk on the note. Steely minerality, white flowers, delightfully dry. — 5 months ago

Fragrant white flowers and subtle hints of pear excite the taste buds just before Crème Brule melds with the bright pear on the palate. A touch of French oak with no malolactic fermentation allows this Chardonnay to be clean and crisp yet so complex. — 4 years ago
