Vintage Port Blend 1992

Wednesday Wine Committee from this past week. A fantastic hosting by @joe leatherwood . 1 sparkler, 2 whites, 5 reds, 1 dessert wine. All tasted blind as usual.

Very good right now and hardly showing any heat. It’s so well balanced and integrated that I called this early ‘80s port. Plethora of baking spices, cherry liqueur, dark cocoa dipped graham cracker, dates and cherry fig. Nice sweetness. In a good window. — 4 years ago

Many always talk about the much praised 1994 vintage but 1992 was equally good for some producers.

Vintage 2010 / The first bottle I open from a box. Lovely smell with butterscotch, butter and a hint of honey. Awesome balance. 2010 is a year with high acidity, I think this riesling can age decades. Probably excellent for grandchildren - but only if I leave them in the cellar 😆 — 4 years ago

What to do when the amount of Coronavirus cases keeps increasing in California. Start the night off with a glass of one of our favorite N/V Rosé Champanges.

All my numerous notes still apply!

Stay infection free folks! Cheers! 🍾🥂

This is my favorite moscato yet. Thank you Vietti for being a beautiful winemaker and also making this. If there were white peach jolly ranchers tossed into some grapefruit and Meyer lemon juice and then you dashed in some orange blossom and magically gave it velvet bubbles that’s this. It’s...delicious. You’d think at a mere 5% abv I’d have a cooler word than “delicious” but damn this is. — 5 years ago

I tend to gravitate to less mainstream gins but this is a classic. Citrus, coriander and juniper. Refreshing and excellent with Fever Tree Naturally Light Tonic and a touch of lemon. Summer in a glass. — 5 years ago

Completely agree. It’s my favourite for most of the time. Although Gin Mare with tonic and some basil or rosemary...
