Wine Reviews

Just a gorgeous white wine. It is a blend of 72% Chardonnay, 15.4% Roussanne, and 12.6% Marsanne.  Golden in color, clear and bright.  The nose has red apples, peach, wax, white flowers and baking spices.  Full bodied.  Light tannins.  Loads of energy.  Good acidity.  On the palate, this is deep and delicious.  Crisp.  Flavors of apples, grapefruits, spices and char.  Long finish.  This is drinking well and should continue for another ten to  fifteen years.  very nice on its own but even a bit better with food.  This would work well with grilled Tuna Steaks.  

This is the basic Cab from Myriad.  Inky purple in color, opaque and bright.  The nose has deep with cassis, new leather, slight graphite, cedar and spice.  Full bodied.  Firm tannins.  Good balance.  On the palate, this is drinking well.  Flavors of cassis with a bit of tobacco and spice and char.  Good acidity.  Long finish.  No doubt this will still improve with good cellaring but not harm in drinking so young but give it some air.  Drink over the next ten to fifteen years.  It is great on its own and will work with bigger (fatty) foods.  A nice choice at a Steakhouse.  

This is a blend of Grenache and Syrah from the Southern Rhone.  Deep ruby in color, partially opaque and bright.  The nose has black cherries, cherries, wild herbs and slight floral notes.  Medium bodied.  Light tannins.  Good balance.  On the palate, this is easy and tasty to drink.  Flavors of cherries, black cherries, spice and char.  Good finish.  This is nice on its own but better with food.  A perfect choice for (veggie) Burgers off the grill.  Drink over the next five years.
