Chappellet

Mountain Cuvée Proprietor's Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2020

Bordeaux-Style Blend of Cabernet Sauvignon (68%), Merlot (28%), Petite Verdot (2%) and Cabernet Franc (2%). Dark ruby color with purple highlights. Brilliant nose of plush red fruit, graphite and high quality oak. Bold red and black fruit flavors with hints of earth, cocoa, dried herbs and spices. Very long and Smokey finish. Bold, complex and concentrated. Tannins are very smooth. Nice choice, Kasey! — 3 years ago

The Boxer Shiraz 2014

The word that comes to mind when drinking this wine is POWER! Big blueberry/blackberry/plum fruit with hints of chocolate, coffee and licorice. Mint and dried spices on the finish. Even though it’s a full bodied powerhouse (15.5% alcohol) it is still elegant and well structured. The tannins are amazingly soft and the wine has wonderful depth. Great effort! — 7 years ago

Billecart-Salmon

Brut Rosé Champagne Chardonnay Blend

She is red-fruit forward, she has brioche touches and sea salt nuances on the nose. The palate is that sort of balance there isn’t a proper word for but gosh it’s there. Finishes slightly toasty with a zip of lemon and a squeeze of cranberry. — 2 years ago

A week late, but Happy Super Bowl!
No matter the occasion, Artemis always makes the case to be the wine of choice.

Winemaker's Blend California Zinfandel Blend 2016

I enjoy this red blend more than most and will continue to have a bottle on hand as it makes me happy. Not good enough? See other, longer, reviews if you want adjectives. Alternatively, buy a bottle and try it for yourself and share with a friend at a party. It’s a fan favorite for-a-reason. And that reason doesn’t have the word “berry” or “legs” or “mocha” — 7 years ago
