Decent bottle for $20 to go with a hamburger! Enjoying it and would recommend it for the price, its a full body Cab.
Tasting Notes Our 2012 Sonoma County Cabernet Sauvignon is rich with dark cherries, plum, spices and black pepper. The palate is full with medium tannins and a lush finish.

Bought this excellent Rhone recently at Kokoman
near Santa Fe, NM. You would never guess-from the outside of the store at least(Google Kokoman for photos)-that it has an excellent selection and a very knowledgeable owner/buyer: (My most recent order from an out-of-state wine merchant(not Kokoman). They will ship the case when the weather is cooler-probably in mid-late Oct: 2010 Corton Marechaudes, Roche de Bellene-3 bottles 2012 Chateauneuf du Pape V.V., Clos St Jean-3 bottles 2007 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva Vigna Paganelli, Il Poggione-3 bottles 2011 Crognolo, Sette Ponte-3 bottles This should make for a very pleasant winter with a somewhat robust afterglow )

Becoming more of a semi-dry lover, as I mature in years.
(10, or 20, more years to full maturity, though! ) Gerardo gives this the "thumbs-up..." Hi G! |

I attended a meditation retreat
this summer and interestingly the teacher turned out to be a wine lover-especially high-end Italian. Here he is at the head of the table(yellow jacket)while my friend is pouring the wine(I bought one of those bottles-that’s probably why I got to sit at his table ).

We have been enjoying Intipalka Malbec - Merlot Reserve made in Peru. Bringing a few bottles home. The Chardonnay they make is very good too!

Another Wine from Peru
Picked one more bottle up in Peru before we left. Going to let these bottles sit for a little and enjoy them on an anniversary of our trip!

if you want to indulge, grab a Pignan or CDP from Chateau Rayas France.. it will blow most other wines away.. I also love Haden Fig from Oregon USA.

2013 Carsi Vineyard Chardonnay
An Excellent Chardonnay IMHO! Just the way I like my Chardonnay's and $38 a bottle is very reasonable for the quality. 91 Points WS
https://www.vsattui.com/product/2013...er&maxRows=10& TASTING NOTES: Pleasantly seductive and subtle, with creamy, toasty oak nuances and flavors of pear, butterscotch and honeydew melon that glide along gracefully on the finish.

Got lucky on this one
Asked for the Nuits St. Georges 1er. The Somm, who was awesome, said, "we're out of it but I can give you this at the same price. It's the same producer."
I said, "SOLD, man!" One of Lalou's earlier Domaine Leroy vintages, it was awesome. |

Last nights tipple was Veuve Clicquot NV with Bresoala. Don't normally drink Grande Marque Champagnes but I bought a couple of cases of this a while back when it had a third off the RRP.
