Walt, "La Brisa" Pinot Noir 2019
USA, California, Sonoma, Sonoma Coast
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2019 La Brisa opens with ample cherry, strawberry and cranberry flavors accented with dried herbs and tea. The rich texture and fine tannins are complimented by cool-climate acidity and whole cluster complexity. Toasty barrel notes carry through a savory finish.
Substance by Charles Smith Cabernet Sauvignon 2019
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
Classic from the get-go. Black cassis, pipe tobacco and black cherry saturates the mouth. Followed by forest floor, dark plum and pencil lead. Great density and a tremendous finesse-filled finish which one has to repeat...A CLASSIC!
Long Shadows, "Pirouette" Proprietary Red Blend 2018
USA, Washington, Columbia Valley
Winemaker's Notes:
The 2018 Pirouette is an expressive wine that opens slowly to reveal oak spice and a kaleidoscope of red and black fruit aromas and flavors that become more vivid as the wine develops in the glass. Textured and richly concentrated on the palate, the wine’s voluptuous mouthfeel and refined tannins stretch across a long, satisfying finish.
Marqués de Cáceres, "Reserva" Tempranillo 2016
Spain, Rioja
Winemaker's Notes:
Dark and dense ruby color. Refined and complex aroma with a touch of cherry, vanilla and soft toasted notes. Balanced in the mouth, where the silky and well defined tannins are combined with exquisite flavors to reveal a pleasant fullness. This Reserva firmly reflects the profile of the Bodegas previous vintages, awarded with several prestigious prizes.
