2021 Fairchild Estate Sigaro Cabernet Sauvignon, USA, California, Napa, Wine Review

Vintage: 
2021
Score: 
94
Grade: 
A
Current Price: 
$300.00USD

This is 100% Cabernet Sauvignon from Pritchard Hill in Napa.  Inky purple in color, opaque and shimmering bright.  The nose has cassis, clay and spice.  With air a bit of espresso comes out.  Full bodied.  Medium tannins.  On the palate, cassis, very light char, cinammon and bit of coffee bean.  Plenty of depth.  Good finish.  This is young and should improve a couple points.  It can be drunk now with some air but better to cellar for five to seven years and drink for ten after that.  Great on its own, this would work well with grilled meats or mushrooms.  6000 bottles produced.

A

This is 100% from the tiny appelation, York Mountain, in Paso Robles.  Like most Torrin wines, this is a delicious, full throttle wine.  Inky purple in color, opaque and bright.  The nose has black rasperries, black pepper, roasted meat and a slight floral note.  Full bodied.  Medium tannins.  On the palate, this is big with loads of black raspberries with some black pepper and char.  At age 11, it is still youhtful and should go another decade.  Its grea on its own and would work well with big meat dishes but also Stuffed Vegetarian style peppers.  

2021 Tomcsanyi Hárslevelű, Hungary, Wine Review

Vintage:

Score: 
91
Grade: 
A-

This is made from 100% Hárslevelű grapes in hungary.  It is considered a "Natural Wine".  Light golden in color, clear and bright.  The nose has some floral tones and also a bit of apricot.  Light to medium bodied.  On the palate, this is clean with a bit of peach and minerals.  Very light on its feet with lots of energy.  Clean finish.  This is nice on its own but better with food.  It would work well with a plaate of pasta with garlic and cheese.  drink over the next couple years.
