2008 Clos Julien Cabernet Sauvignon Lake County


2008 Clos Julien Cabernet Sauvignon Lake County


""Dark ruby/purple color. Explosive, vibrant aromas of dark cherry and cassis. Really persistent and high-toned. Bright and flashy on entry melting into a deep, expansive core of small dark fruits; at once refreshing and concentrated. Fine, firm finish showing off all the structure of its high elevation origins. Drink now for the wild fruit opulence or age for up to 6 years in a cool cellar.""

2009 Capablanca Pinot Noir


2009 Capablanca Pinot Noir Sueno Profondo

"Deep, dark ruby in color. Dark red fruit and wild black cherry aromas, a hint of barrel. Rich and layered on the palate with a decadent core of crushed red fruit. Weighty. Fine and small-cluster vibrant in the finish. Drink now for the sheer floral juiciness or age for up to 3 years in a cool cellar."

French Chardonnay


2008 Domaine Corsin Saint Veran Vieilles Vignes


Region: France > Burgundy > Macon

Grape: Chardonnay

"Pale green color, with slightly closed aromas of green apple, a touch of wood, and wet stone minerality. Bright and vibrant on the attack, with a deep -- at first -- unyielding core of green apple. Firm, sturdy, chiseled on the finish. 2 hours later: Opening, showing off more of the rich fruit kernel on the nose. Filling out on the palate, powerful, with fine green apple flavors, excellent viscosity and length. Day 2: Just 1/3 of a bottle left -- we weren't sufficiently patient -- now opening into much more of a concentrated mouthful of Chardonnay. Not sweet, but honed. Not opulent, more tightly wound and mineral. This will age forever -- if you're willing to wait."

Brookdale Cabernet Sauvignon


Wine Reviews 8/17/10



2007 Brookdale Vineyards Cabernet Sauvignon


"Dark black/purple in color. Deep, explosive cassis aromas, with crushed berry (high skin: juice ratio) intensity. Big mouthful of dark purple fruit, lush and dense, powerfully concentrated. Fine, chiseled finish, speaking to the long growing season and the Morisoli piece. Drink now (because it’s too delicious not to) or age for up to 7 years in a cool cellar."

Benoni Chardonnay Petits Grains

Wine Reviews 8/13/10


2009 Benoni Chardonnay "Petits Grains" Sonoma Coast


"Bright, pale green color. Intense, wound up mineral aromas of green apple, wet stone, lightly laced with new wood. Firm and fruity on the attack, it's the deep mineral fruit kernel that tells the story of the tight, irregular clusters, the high elevation and Monsieur X's deft hand with Chardonnay. Fine and long on the finish with mouthwatering acid balance. Drink now for the sheer fruit purity or age for up to 5 years in a cool cellar."

Arnot-Roberts Cabernet Sauvignon

Wine Reviews 8/05/10





2007 Arnot-Roberts Cabernet Sauvignon Clajeux Vineyard Chalk Hill


"($80) Opaque ruby. Pungent cherry-cola, mulberry, licorice and dark chocolate on the nose, plus a zesty note of cracked pepper. Sweet, sappy and full-bodied but lithe, with deep dark berry preserve, cherry compote and chocolate flavors complemented by a hint of licorice and a subtle cola note. Finishes with outstanding lingering sweetness and fine, dusty tannins. This wine gained energy with aeration and should be a fine cellar candidate."

2009 Chad Pinot Noir Sonoma Coast


"Dark ruby to the edge. Vibrant, dark red berry aromas, plenty of opulence. Wonderful rich attack with a finely honed small berry core of wild cherry and raspberries. Fine, firm finish speaking to the high elevation and high skin-to-juice ratio. Drink now for the luscious fruit core or age for up to 5 years in a cool cellar."

2006 Famille Kreydenweiss Chateauneuf-du-Pape Single Vineyard


"Dark purple color. Explosive, crushed red berry aromas, lightly laced with new wood. Deeply concentrated to the core with excellent weight, density and persistence. Truly remarkable on the finish with all the firm vibrancy that one only finds in these great old vine, sand soil settings. Drink now for the sheer hedonism of it all, or age for up to 15 years in a cool cellar."
