Just a guy with some wine in a closet behind a vacuum and a few winter jackets. Picture is the wife and me at Opus in Lucerne Switzerland dining in the wine cellar at the end of Chapel Bridge. (yes, that's a bottle of Turley on the shelf in the back, small world) I'm married to an Italian Jersey girl so it explains a lot; my problem with pasta and family conversations at very high decibels.

Old Melville (Paul and Ashely's House): I love this one so much? Because I love rosé and especially when it’s back on the sweetness allowing the mineral and acid to share the spotlight. Red fruited and terrific.

Old Melville (Paul and Ashely's House): Color shows some light skin contact. Faint pink. Berry and peachy notes. While this was excellent I get the feeling it’ll improve with cellar time. It has verve in the form of strong acid and mineral foundation. I like the salinity. Count your blessing if this is filling up your cellar.

2013 Melville Pinot Noir Block M

Old Melville (Paul and Ashely's House): I think all we agreed this one is out of balance. It’s just too much heat, it’s distracting. It has all the pieces but they just go in different directions. Stem, ripe raspberry. More heat at the finish.
