I loved the package and the fact is was made from old vine but the wine just didn't deliver for me.

Another Costco find, pretty solid $11 Pinot Noir from Monterey. It has solid red fruit, light in body with balanced tannins. I'd buy it again.

Thankfully I took this picture yesterday before all of this rain today! The Hunt from Biltmore Estate is by far my favorite wine I've tasted from them (we joined their wine club over a year ago, so we've tasted a few.) It is full, rich and loaded with dark fruit. Well integrated tannins with various underlying oak influences.
Very, very tasty!!!

Shout out to a family friend for bringing this back from S. Africa for us. A big, meaty blend that is the perfect accompaniment to everything grilled!

I am disappointed in myself for forgetting to post these when I took them 2 months ago. Fun to relive my trip to Monterey with the wifey though.

Found this very nice Rose from Provence at Costco last week. Both the wifey and I enjoyed it, but not 100% sure it was worth the $18 price tag. But the bottle turned into a really nice vase when all was said and done.

On Thursday I had the pleasure of tasting the same Pinot Noir aged in 12 different barrels. It was really cool to see what different coopers and different toast levels from the same cooperage can do to the same wine. It was very eye opening!

Enjoyed this wine tonight with dinner. I was fortunate enough to receive a gift card to from my in-laws and enjoyed dinner with my wife. I went with the Bison Osso Bucco and this suggested pairing was perfect. It had good dark fruit, touch of spice with balanced tannins.

I don't usually drink because they can be pretty basic but there was nothing basic about this. Catena Zapata has worked tirelessly to put on the map and this is a great, affordable bottle ($25ish)
I loved the plum, blueberry and blackberry flavors that were so prevalent, but this wine was exceptional to me because of the chewy, gamy texture and overall mouthfeel. I really loved this wine!

Pretty traditional with good red fruit and earthiness. Just a touch of that old school chalky taste. I was more impressed with the proprietor's story and his passion for working this vineyard for the past 40 years!
