Wandering Giants

Château Rayas

Réservé Châteauneuf-du-Pape Grenache Blend 2008

With a table full of giants , for many this was the WOTD. Text book Rayas on the nose; strawberry, cherry, spices and  kirsch.
This is a wine that makes love to your palate. Teasing and caressing your mouth with harmonious waves of elegant and balanced fruit. A great Rayas in a poor vintage for CDP. However for me the partner in life is the 2005 , which has complexity and concentration that puts that one in the Hall of Fame along with ‘78, ‘90 & ‘95

Côte du Roussillon Ciel Liquide Red Rhône Blend

Watch out famed northern Rhône producers. This label has a long way to go but the wine is already a world class killer of Syrah giants. Ripping. I would even say give it a minute it just unfolds more and more intensely. Only red wine I’ve ever successfully paired with some earthy chocolate too. — 5 years ago

Château Saint-Georges

St. Georges-St. Émilion Red Bordeaux Blend 2005

Color : Red
Wine estate : Château Saint-Georges
Designation : Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion
Name : Saint-Georges-Saint-Émilion
Country : France
Vivino : 4/5
Note : We smell the aromas of red fruits wandering in the glass. Her blood-red robe comes with a powerful nose of spice, pepper and blackberries. On the palate, a balance and a delicacy with deep and long tannins for a final on copper, raspberries and prunes.
----------
On sent les arômes de fruits rouges se balader dans le verre. Sa robe rouge sang s'accompagne d'un nez puissant d'épice, poivre et mûres. En bouche, un équilibre et une gourmandise avec des tannins profonds et long pour un final sur le cuivre, framboises et pruneaux.

Sea Smoke

Ten Estate Vineyard Sta. Rita Hills Pinot Noir 2010

45 min decant(little cloudy sediment). An exquisite dark ruby red color. On the nose: Nice delicate nose of sour cherry, spice, orange peel, vanilla, and some cedar. Taste: Wow!! A velvety palate draws you in with black cherry, pepper, earth, and a juicy minerally cedar long finish.

A perfect wine to celebrate (pizza and pinot) the SF Giants NL West win today!....hey evil Dodgers, have fun playing St. Louis on Wednesday (NOT!)

Château de Beaucastel

Œnothèque Châteauneuf-du-Pape Red Rhône Blend

Ending a fun day at Oracle Park in SF to see the GIANTS play the CUBS; won the series! Enjoying great food and wine at the Boulevard restaurant. Medium to dark red with a brown hue rim. Has funky wet earth barnyard and blueberry nose. A strawberry cherry fruit initial taste with a smoke and spice finish. Tannins are medium but relatively smooth. An hour after the first pour, the wine really opened up. Tannins are more smooth and there is nice black licorice finish with a hint of vanilla. — 5 years ago
