Under the Wire

Alder Springs Vineyard Sparkling Chardonnay 2017

Beautiful golden color. Toast, lemon pith, slate, bright acidity. Chablis meets champagne in California? A great food sparkler. — 6 months ago

Flora Springs

Holy Smoke Vineyard Cabernet Sauvignon 2021

Named after the fog that rolls in on the morning (not the fires).
Deep ruby color. Aromas of blackberry, red currant, herbs and oak. Pretty good overall.

La Source Seven Springs Estate Pinot Noir

Opens up with juicy plums, cherries and apples. The acidity carries through but is tempered by an undercurrent of wood and smoke. Easy to drink and elegant. — 3 months ago

St Innocent Winery

Seven Springs Vineyard Pinot Noir 1998

This 1998 7 Springs Pinot seems mature, supple, candied red fruits, nice balance, good length, but not quite a typically-excellent bottle of this wine. — 5 months ago

@Daniel Bloom Not the biggest Paso Robles guy but this winery makes great stuff. Gorgeous wine country to visit-especially in Spring. Summer is a tad toasty.

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon 1985

Christmas Day wine 🎄🎅🏼🍷

Acquired this for two reasons: Flora Springs was my “a-ha” wine 10yrs ago which started my wine journey, and secondly because it’s my sister-in-law’s birth year.

Enjoyed on Christmas Day (with said sister-in-law) and family (the family who introduced me to wine + Flora Springs). Kept the bottle standing for a few days. In the glass, there was bricking but the color was much more vibrant than expected. Aromatically, it showed mushroom and fig, but a good bit of muddled red and black berry fruit, some mint as well. Alive, elegant and bright on the palate with good tannin structure (held strong the two hours it was open). Small hint of tobacco at the finish, but the berry fruit stayed persistent keeping the flavors balanced. Undeniably older Napa (13%) and in great shape.

Optimus Willow Creek District Red Blend 2019

This punches above its weight class. Having had the estate cuvée and cote bottles, this feels a peer. Big deep fruits. Smooth all the way through. Loved it — 4 years ago
