2019 Carucci Pinot Noir Greengate Vineyard

Edna Valley more

5/13/2024 - Phlyphisherman Does not like this wine: 84 points

I like a little funk, but this makes me feel like I’m sitting in the barnyard rather than at the dinner table. Glad I only have this one bottle.

2020 Holocene Pinot Noir Memorialis

Willamette Valley more

5/3/2024 - Phlyphisherman Likes this wine: 93 points

Second bottle of this and way better this time around. The oak is more integrated and the balance is at a good place now. Red fruit, a touch of earth and spice, nice acidity, long finish, somewhat lighter and more ethereal than I recall from the first. Glad I have a few more.

2016 Paraduxx (Duckhorn Vineyards) Block 4 Rector Creek Vineyard

Napa Valley Red Blend more

9/14/2023 - Phlyphisherman Likes this wine: 89 points

This is my next to last bottle and I feel like its drinking better now than it has. I know this isn't meant for long term aging but the fruit is still fresh and the tannins very nicely rounded out. Glad I held out on a couple bottles.

Feels like it's past its prime but still pretty good. Better on day 1. Nothing spectacular here but fairly balanced and pleasant enough.

This is really starting to sing, developing some tertiary flavors. A little more honey and savory notes than what I picked up on previous bottles.
