    Toffee, butter, lemon peel, a hint of satuma maybe, with a long finish that reminds me of my fav scotch server neat.

    Great, easy drinking wine that you need to grab when you can find it. For people that don’t like overly oaked Chards, this is a great bottle. A little lime, pineapple, smidge of oak.

    Another easy drinking, lush and bold pinot from Loring. Not as big and bold as some, but maybe a little more balanced and refined. Easy to love

    Cline is one of those Uber relaiable quality-price-ratio brands. Here’s how I end up with Cline- out driving, decision on dinner, end up picking a BYOB restaurant, but not remembering to bring a bottle ….. finding a supermarket and scanning….Cline!! Easy pick.

    eeeeeEEEEEEEeeeeee. I’m not ashamed to say I like the locations series because they push into some interesting areas, rethinking rules of blending. The E 5 is no excpetion, sourcing a range of grapes from across Spain, and spanning vintages such that this bottle gets a NV. Pull the cork and you’ll get deep purple, joe and baked red and bla…[Read more]
