El Enemigo

Mendoza Sémillon 2018

Bright golden color. On the nose, it shows bergamot, lemongrass and vanilla aroma, and on the palate, you can feel slight wood tannin, and it’s well integrated and fine, with cream texture. Piercing acidity, it has medium to long finish. Very enjoyable. — 2 years ago

Wein-Erbhof Stein

Blauschiefer Trocken Riesling 2020

Young but quite approachable with a decant. Stone, wet slate, peaches. Structure to last. Evocative. — 2 years ago

Opus One

Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon Blend 2000

2000 has really come in nicely. Tobacco and leather up front, with mellow oak, carbon, and earth, complimented by allspice, cinnamon, and vanilla, with hints of wild blackberry. Silky smooth from start to finish. Really enjoyed. Celebrating indigo with Garett, Josie, and Tara. — 2 years ago

Maison Saint Aix

Coteaux d'Aix-en-Provence Rosé 2021

Happy to find this in Von’s the other day. Had this at Lyon Hall in the past. Great light, slightly salty rose from Provence - after a day filled with biking, beach walking and sitting. — 2 years ago
